How is it pronounced?

I was watching an episode of toy collector and "the star" found a Darkseid transport toy he was going to buy from a collector and sell at auction.

He called it "Darkseed". I always thought it was pronounced "Darkside". Any comic experts care to chime in?

In the cartoon, it's pronounced Dark-side. George Lucas appeared quite influenced by the New Gods when he was putting together Star Wars in the early 70s, e.g., the source, Darkseid, Orion (always fighting his Darkseid family heritage/half), the balance of good and evil between New Genesis and Apocalypse...

It's Dark-side. I watched that episode of toy collecter as well and commented to my wife how he mis-pronounced the name.

I know a lot of fans when I was a kid used to say "Dark-seed" though...probably because they didn't think that it would be pronounced the same as the Force from SW.

But yeah, it's supposed to be "side".
