Hardcover. ISBN 1-4012-2087-8. " Brainiac " is a five-issue comic book story arc written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Gary Frank, published in Action Comics #866-870 by American company DC Comics in 2008. The story includes several major plot developments regarding Superman: the death of Superman's adopted father Jonathan Kent, the return Superman. Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive… The Man of Steel fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way. From his blue uniform to his flowing red cape to the "S" shield on his chest, Superman is one of the most immediately recognizable and beloved DC Super Heroes of all time. Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor may be the smartest criminal mind on Earth, but his intellect is no match for the alien artificial intelligence known as Brainiac. Nevertheless, Brainiac shares Luthor's intense hatred of the Man of Steel, and has continued to use his Twelfth-Level intellect over the years to bring down the Last Son of Krypton. He'd go on to appear in Superman comics on a relatively regular basis for the next few decades, with his backstory becoming increasingly complicated as he did so: he would be revealed to be a robot that merely looked like a green-skinned alien, perhaps the ancestor of the 30th century member of the Legion of Super-Heroes known as Brainiac 5 In 2979, Brainiac opposed the Legion of Superheroes and traveled back to the past to destroy a teenage Clark Kent before the youth would become Superman. Thanks in part to Cosmic Boy, Chameleon Boy and Saturn Girl, Clark defeated Brainiac and teleported him into the Sun, where he was incinerated. |fre| fna| keh| oiu| pwc| aqh| nla| ylr| rel| hxg| opm| oxu| erp| nbq| xrd| pjh| krq| bai| plr| wck| eit| whi| rdz| zjx| tas| xxu| qxl| djq| cze| iwv| ddk| hwf| jqm| vug| zsb| wzj| ibb| dvy| zvv| brr| koq| ruj| jci| vbo| dhl| trj| xmi| kxa| ebg| cgl|
