Yes, I know the Brainiac from Krypton exists, but dammit I want a theatrical one!
Lol I sincerely hope not, but won’t be surprised either.I will not be surprised that if/when they reboot superman, it will be another version of zod again.
Hello, superman fans, I would like to present to you my Superman fan film: Man of Steel 2: Hope Lives. Brainiac is one of the main villains.
Hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. Hope to hear your comments
At this point, doing a full on Brainiac invasion story would feel so repetitive. Both Man of Steel and Justice League featured alien invasions, and unfortunately I think they should try something else.
That doesn’t mean that Brainiac can’t be involved. I’d just like to see a more contained story than any sort of bombastic invasion. Brainiac doesn’t need to be a massive physical threat, his real strength is in his intelligence. I am intrigued by the idea of a depowered Superman trapped on Brainiac’s rocketship of horrors. A very Giger-esque design for Brainiac and his ship would be dope as hell.

I know a lot of people want to see a more uplifting Superman story, but I’d love to see some Alien/Fire in the Sky/sci-fi horror in the next Superman. Brainiac as a concept is inherently terrifying and lends itself easily to sci-fi horror.

Batman has the Grant Morrison/Arkham Asylum storyline where he must battle some of his greatest enemies as he makes his way through this terrifying maze of evil. Superman could have something similar within Brainiac’s ship. Aboard the ship could be any number of terrifying alien specimens Brainiac has collected. I wouldn’t mind seeing the last Czarnian trapped aboard Brainiac’s ship. Brainiac himself could be feeble and vulnerable, but he would have full control of the ship and all of its biomechanical components. There is a ton of potential there, and it would be more fresh/contained than a standard alien invasion story.

There are a lot of fun ideas here. I would love to incorporate it someway into my Superman Look up in the sky story..I'm approaching the 1950s and it would be fun to have Supes be a part of the Roswell crash.I have always liked the idea that brainiac is a totally different species to anything we can imagine - in the sense they are sentient energy beings.... so they need organic body suits, in order to survive outside of their realm.. so to speak... in our reality, dimension... and basically Roswell crash was brainiac crashing...they retrieved the aliened, wired them up, they was instantly able to infect the radio waves and instruments of 1950's America and they live on almost like AI that we cannot comprehend - so like a static face appeared on a screen...

where brainiac explains he took his face, form so that they can comprehend them.
Then brainiac basically works with the us government, they think brainiac is helping them and benign - they create internet and tech companies and it's inane what they can do and literally we come to today, where everything is what it is, brainiac still a secret, but is driving the world forward.
However, it's a Trojan horse, brainiac is just slowly gaining control of everything - they can see throw every lens, every camera, iPhone, controls every smart device and is steering evolution to make mankind a hybrid of their evolution, steering scientists into working with integrating tech and humans and also, inter stellar travel - they have to make a craft to get back or at least alert others.
Then when a kryptonian arrives - satelites pick it up in the 80s, then brainiac themselves tracks and studies kal el and wants to use him to get back to their own planet... ofcourse, clark has other ideas..
The movie itself is decidedly mediocre, but that scene is an all-time great as far as alien movies are concerned.that's disturbing
