What DC characters are similar to Galactus, Pheonix, Onslaught, Beyonder, Hyperstorm, Eternity, Death, The Living Tribunal? Like are there any "cosmic beings", characters that would kick Superman's a$$ without lifting a finger?
I only know Darkseid and Doomsday to be the top bosses, but I might be wrong, so are there any characters that Superman does not stand a chance against?
Ex: Hulk vs. Beyonder - Winner: Beyonder
Juggernaut vs. Onslaught - Winner: Onslaught

Note: Galactus, Pheonix, Beyonder, etc. are all Marvel so my question was what DC characters resemble the big players from Marvel?

The Anti-monitor was supposed to be that, but he and the Crisis on Infinite Earths idea SUCKED.
Mordru- Legion arch-villian. He's conquered worlds, even weakened he has no issue disposing of Superman. He'd be the closest.
The Sun-Eater had some parallels w/ Galactus. Definitely on a cosmic level. But not really sentient.
Spectre is somewhat cosmic, he's held Earth 1 and Earth 2 apart on more than one occasion.
The Guardians of Oa are cosmic beings. Krona is a renegade Guardian and is on the cosmic level in the DC/Marvel Crossover: JLA/Avengers. (Ironically, The Crisis plot re-told and much better)
As are the Controllers from Legion of Super Heroes. (Time Trapper is a renegade)
Validus. Not really at that level, but he totally smacks down Superboy and MonEl
Infinity Man as another poster mentioned.

Mr Nebula was conceived as a parallel (albeit a silly one) to Galactus, with his scout Scarlet Skier, appearing in Giffen-era JLA.
There are a couple of Legion villians, the Infinite Man and Time Trapper, who are on that scale

Just as wini said, Parallax was the strongest being in the DC universe at his time... it's only obvious since Jordan was the best GL ever and one of the most powerful heroes here on Earth.
He knocked out Superman with one punch plus he wasn't really ever defeated in a one-on-one match, he died sacrificing himself.

just off the top of my head:
Parallax (the old Hal Jordan GL gone insane)
Ion (the new GL turned super-powerful)
Kismet
Waverider
Monarch (not sure about this though)
