- We’ve seen many super-intelligent heroes or villains across different comic universes. So, here’s one that’s an actual supercomputer. Brainiac was created by Otto Binder and Al Pastino and made his first appearance in Action Comics 242. His origin story has numerous variations across timelines. He’s a level 12 intellect who easily surpasses anyone in the DC Universe, including Lex Luthor. Most of his origins place him as a being from the planet named Colu, although recent variations have made him of Kryptonian origin. He seeks to gain all the knowledge in the world and can quickly learn anything in the blink of an eye. He’s considered to be the most high-tech foe of Superman. So, today we explore the genius of this supervillain.

He’s so smart, he manipulates DC’s writers to change his origin somehow.
Crazy once you think about it
😂
@@realist6482 yeah, weird
That takes a dog to do atleast to the people who write today's DC....
@@Hiihtopipa we'll see about that
I would love to have seen more Seasons of Krypton, showing us how Braniac was defeated before he conquered Earth.
DCAU Brainiac will always be my favorite. And Corey Burton’s voice? Perfection.
I don't know why Warner Bros hates him so much. He was originally the villain for Superman 3 but they forced them to accept a horrible script instead. Superman Lives was cancelled likely BECAUSE of him or one of the main reasons. His appearance could've made Superman Returns make more sense, making Superman lose contact with Earth while he was away for five years. They fired Zack Snyder who had Brainiac in his Man of Steel 2 script. I hope he eventually shows up on Superman & Lois with the help Brainiac 5, Martian Manhunter and Dreamer
Would of made a better movie during that time forsure😂
Excellent Epiclike presentation. I'm sixty one years old and have seen quite a bit of presentations and videos BUT YOURS stands out, your presentation is by far the BEST. Keep on!
Your videos are the best part of the CZcams universe
STAS had my favorite incarnation. Whoever did the voice really added gravitas to the character.
Corey Burton
Without a doubt the best version by far because of the voice
We all know that the strongest and hardest version of Brainiac to defeat is his version in the Superman game on Nintendo 64 lol haha
F that game
I couldnt get past the fucking rings
@@ace8656 those rings gave all of us are first feeling of gamer rage lol
@@chriscripplercruz1833 no kidding lol!
I Believe that Ralph Fiennes would’ve been the Perfect Oscar-Nominated Actor As Brainiac in the DCEU/Snyderverse
Yeah he would
@@B.Piercesports thank you for agreeing
Either Ralph Fiennes or Corey Burton
braniac from the krypton tv series became one of my favorite versions, shout out to blake ritson for giving and excellent performance
Imagine Braniac (DC) vs. Ultron (Marvel), interesting Fight/Battle!
@@AzraelWolf-vr4ku especially since Brainiac had a part to play in Krypton's destruction
Ultron would get decimated.
@@snapdragon420 in a sense
Brainiac fights against stronger characters and holds his own fairly well. Only way I see Ultron winning this one is if he’s Infinity Ultron.
Brainiac's Origins is so convoluted they first say that he's a technologically advanced species of martians Called The Koluans
He and Darkseid fighting in DCEU would be badass
Ultron: "Adorable"
Brainiac of Krypton: Core Change is not real! I am a Core Denier!
Great video! I always wanted to know more about this villain.
They have this Braniac version coming out as a McFarland figure,I need that..
Brainiac has also appeared in earlier Superman 🦸♂️ and Superfriends cartoons.
Fun fact: there are 12 other brainiacs ending with 13 and also side variations like mega Brainac and Brainac 2.5 all of which are from different timelines
Can't believe you only gave a blurb about brainiac and lex merger that jlu episode was incredible
The one interesting Villain they have never brought to theaters
I would like to see Braniac go up against Ultron
LOL..!! I was just searching for a STL model of Brainiac. 24 minutes later - you present this. Thanks - same wavelength being shared.
Would of loved to see the panned superman movie by Tim Burton as it was supposed to have brainiac as the villain
I really wish we can see an actual movie version of him, maybe even fighting H.C Superman?
IKR, even a slight appearance as another DC rogues' pawn would suffice with a twist where he becomes the big bad later on
Cavill's gone 😔
@@DarksaberForce Yeah, I know. : (
@@kennycodes Gunn should of just let Cavil do his MoS2 movie with Brainiac instead of another reboot nobody asked for.
YESSS AT LONG LAST 🔥💯👑👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
He must be the threat after Darkseid in the movies
Or in between movies if he becomes the big bad for Cyborg or anyone else to face
@@damianprock1650 bruh brainiac is leagues above cyborg.
@@Dr.JonathanCrane wouldn't really stop him from trying, especially with how he was able to defeat Brother Blood
You forgot the time when brainiac showed up in the TV show Static Shock, and started mind controlling the heroes.
Lex Luther and branica merged together gives me ultron sigma vibes !!!!!!
@5:20 Louis thinks Clark is too scared to be on the spaceship, so instead he puts on a suit and decides to float back to Earth. Checks out logically.
I remember the mindfuck when I realized Mass Effect ripped him off wholesale with the Reapers.
Saren=Vril Dox
Sovereign=Skull Ship
Harbinger=Brainiac 1
Conduit=C.O.M.P.U.T.O
Collector General=Collector of Worlds
Illusive Man=Lexiac
All of these, like Brainiac and his variations are extensions of the one true threat.
we need another video about braniac especially ones about his krypton tv show version and the braniac god form
Awesome
one of Injustice 2 ending have his head literally used as hat for a homicidal vegan from gotham city
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
His version from the Tim Burton movie looks interesting. Kinda like a mix between Batman Returns, Mars Attack, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Funny you should mention *Charlie and the Chocolate Factory* because the star of that movie was a childhood friend of my father's
@@damianprock1650 Johnny Depp ?
@@aidanhever3369 exactly
Brainiac is fucking amazing!!!
Brainiac is fucking awesome!!!!
A lot of characters I would like to see in live action movies. But I don't think the studios will produce them well.
Because studios are afraid that we won't recognize a Superman Movie without Zod or Luthor.
Can you make a video about annihilus?
In the Antimatter Universe, a version of Brainiac exists.
This Brainiac, Anti-B, manipulated Lex Luthor of this Earth to cross dimensional barriers and enter the Matter Universe, or Earth Prime. Anti-B was subservient to Ultraman, a villainous counterpart to Superman, and his bots were not that tough for the Justice League.
Anti-B was actually a combination of organic and synthetic materials, making Superman unable to destroy him. But when the dopplegangers were switched back, Ultraman lobotomized Brainiac and still had him a slave, mindlessly obeying orders.
This Brainiac planned to destroy Earth 2 and Earth Prime, collecting the energies of both sides, saving trillions of people, and finally being free of Ultraman. Of course, this plan failed, because on Earth 2, good is evil, and evil wins.
Second coolest DC villain after Joker.
Could you do an origins video on Ultron?
What was the reason the Justice league wanted to help Darkseid against Braniac? I mean they could have gone after Braniac after he destroyed Apokolips. What was the risk of letting Braniac do it?
Because Darkseid was seeking the antilife equation. If Brainiac absorbed all the knowledge on Apokolips, he would have found out about that. Darkseid couldn't solve the anitlife equation, but Brainiac definitely could.
@@grindingtheaxe3027 Is the antilife equation a big secret in the dc universe? How many people are aware of it?
@@JR-zp3nw Just Darkseid, The Justice League, and Lex Luthor are aware of it's existence and out of them only Lex could solve it. He won't speak the answer, because that's how you get the DCeased universe.
Young Justice would make him a cool villain! He was great in Krypton (cancelled after 2 seasons).
About the only time I really liked reading a Brainiac story is Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Strikes Again".
The evil that was manifested by Lex Luthor and Brainiac are exactly the kind of villains that make heroes shine!
I'm not sure if that story is in this video, which means that it's probably not.
I have just finished watching this video, for the second time. I was right, the Frank Miller Brainiac isn't included in this video.
Jor El's "roommate".
When I was mentioning lobo with war world him betrayal of justice league was from me overhearing definitely and also before the animated movie war world and yeah the animated movie was good anyways nevertheless and I totally overheard the lobo sending heroes to war world (Deadpool could lock up heros to battle world maybe from lore)
👍🏾
All the knowledge on the World, I'm sure you mean Universe, if not Multiverse 🤔
And the abnormalities of the Earth, I'm sure you mean Krypton
make for Krang TMNT
Float back to earth lol
Lol why would darkseid need help against brainiac
He’s a 12th level intellect
Yo hacia basket en un club que se llamaba 9 de julio en ese club encontré un montón de historietas de superman viejas.....ahí encontré un numero en particular que havoa un circo que tenía poderes telepáticos y su mente se encontró con la mente de brainiac que era un habitante del planeta colu
...brainiac era un científico que estaba estudiando la teleportacion y en un accidente el separa su cuerpo de su mente y esta queda en el cosmos hasta que Posee la mente de este mago de circo jajaja oooi era re chiquito
sool
🧠
I'm sure if he is ever brought into the movies the woke cult will hire Rupaul and turn him into a trasngendered goat for the PC zombies. And the comic origin not TV origin is more important to canan
Thank you for the story. Brainiac isn't the most dangerous supervillain though.
First
wow I sure hate that animated series origin.
Why?
What about the woke abomination Brainiac from the CW's Supergirl? Where does that thing fit into canon?
It don't, but season 7 of smallville does
Brainiac is such an horribly written character, he needs better writing and a substantial origin. Why would someone this powerful waste their time with Superman?! It's actually insulting to the character. Ultra Humanite and Gorilla Grodd also fall into this trope.
