Brainiac Grinning While Superman is in Pain DC
Summary Warning! Spoilers ahead for Superman #15!As unbelievable as it sounds, Superman's longtime enemy Brainiac just found a path to possible redemption. The Coluan menace has terrorized the stars for eons in his mad pursuit to be the sole possessor of the DC Universe's knowledge. But a change to Brainiac's mind might finally be helping him see the light.
In Superman #15 by Joshua Williamson and Rafa Sandoval, the Super-Family is making their last stand against Brainiac. As they fight his 'house', Lex Luthor and his daughter Lena find Brainiac's hive mind and Lex takes it upon himself to connect to the hive mind and erase it. Luthor succeeds and Brainiac's connection to his ship breaks, causing it to destabilize. Superman confronts Brainiac, who, without his intelligence, is forced to grapple with feelings he's repressed for years. Clark offers Brainiac a chance to come with him, but Brainiac insists that Superman save the citizens of Colu first.Despite possessing most every bit of knowledge in the DC Universe, Brainiac was tormented by the feeling of missing something, which drove him mad.
Brainiac is often presented as a cold, calculating figure who doesn't feel emotions or care about anything. But with his immense intelligence considerably drained, he's finally able to feel compassion for his fellow Coluans and for his Queen. One of the most intriguing aspects of the current Superman run is how it's been able to humanize and redeem members of Superman's rogues' gallery.
Brainiac's Next Appearance Could Be as Superman's Friend Chances are that Brainiac's not gone for good. His hive mind, though, is. While he still proclaims to be a "thousand times" smarter than Superman, Brainiac now has access to feelings he didn't before and that's a crucial development for him. Now, instead of antagonizing Superman and his family, Brainiac could assist them.
