By the 50s of the last century, Superman was one of the few superheroes that were still in publication. However he moved away Far from the new crusade agreement Jerry Siegel and Oeo Schuster created for the first time. Under the pen of Otto Binder, Superman accepted the fabulous fantasy and child's miracle.

Brainiac is a symbolism of Binder Superman. In his first appearance, Brainiac is an archetypal B-Film-Shine striker: a little green man in a flying plate of the planet Kulu. His stem factory was decorated by a plague, so Breiniak tried to bottle the cities of the Earth to reproduce the world. Attacking the brain ship, Superman was discovered by his collection by the cryptocurrency city of Kandor. Unable to bring it back, Superman took Kandor and her people back to his fortress of loneliness.

This was not the last Superman seen on Brainiac. In Superman #167, it has been revealed that Brainiac was not a true Coluan, but Android. (There was a computer kit called "Brainiac" on the market since 1956 and "In defense" That product is preceded by their character, DC has changed their brain to a living computer.) Since then, most stories of the brain have been shown as robotic. In the eighties of the last century, Brainiac even got a new look like an Android with a skull (designed by Ed Hannigan).

Much later versions of Brainia are halfway between it and its original look of green skin. Some stories, how The "Superman: Brain" bow in 2006 From OffE NSONS and Gary Frank, they show the "real" stroke as a green skin cyborg that uses drones to expand its will.

The Superman: The 1996 Animated Series have tied Cal-El and Breinak closer than ever. This brain (Corey Burton) was a Cryptonian Artificial intelligence has passed hostile. Brainiac felt that Krypton would explode, but chose not to inform people, instead of saving themselves and files in Krypton history.

Breiniak evolved and went from the world into the world, "preserving" knowledge and then extinction of the people of whom he came from. (Brainiac's habit from literally The preservation of cities in bottles was exposed, however.) The search eventually brought it to the country where he faced the last son of Krypton.

This revised backstew, The work of co-creator Alan Burnetwas a smart move. As a cryptocurrency creation, Breiniak was no longer an evil alien or a robot; He now had a built -in history with Superman. The new animated series "My Superman Adventures" also used the backstation of Cryptonian AI for his brain (Michael Emerson), only this brain actively destroyed Crypton fears his masters will find him outdated.
