    Im not talking about his strength,speed,durability,those are standard super powers (albiet at a very high level) but what sets Doomsday apart is his power to come back to life,and not be able to be killed the same way twice. 
    Now in the real world that may be something,but he's a comic book character and how many comic book characters never die to begin with,and of the few that do die almost all of them are coming back anyways,also how many comic book characters have ever died the same way twice..im guessing none. 
     
    Basically a comic book character with the power to come back to life,and not be killed the same way twice is like a cartoon character that can withstand falling anvils.

    Eventually there will be no way to kill him. So I'd say its a great ability.

    I reckon that reality warping or magic could do something to Doomsday.  "
    Possibly, but Doomsday also has reactive adaptation. Also, if Magic could do something you'd think one of the magic users in the DCU would have already tried it. Especially when he ran through the JLA and killed Superman.

    Exactly.  It seems the only way to stop Doomsday is to contain  or expel him into some relatively difficult to escape areat rather than fight or incapacitate him, and that's proven to be a lot more trouble than it sounds.

    Well, someone like Mad Jim Jaspers can just will Doomsday not to exist. Then that would be it. LOL "
    Possibly. But like the OP says, most comicbook characters come back anyway. Doomsday was even sent so far into the future that he reached the end of time and eventually came back. Even if JJ willed him out of existence he would still find a way to come back/be reborn. Reality warping seldom has a lasting effect in comics. Wanda Maximoff "willed" Hawkeye out of existence in HoM and he came back...
