Darkseid has literally always been a petty asshole with a flair for the dramatic. Darkseid reading Berserk and going "oh man, I'm gonna make Batman WISH he only had to deal with Griffith" isn't any sillier than the last 55 years of his comics history. This is the dude who put his rival's hostage exchange son through a sadistic death trap obstacle course orphanage run by a woman named Granny Goodness. This is the dude who breaks into people's houses with intergalactic Mother Box boom tube teleportation just to lounge in their favorite armchair reading Mein Kamph. Darkseid is a lot of things but he has never been stoic, pragmatic, or emotionless. He is literally a moustache twirling villain and proud of it
