      Broose Wain If we want to get technical, there have been 3 (or more) previous versions of Brainiac in TV. There's the one from Smallville (which we won't speak about )and two from Supergirl, the female one and the one from the Legion of Superheroes. They are based on other comic versions of Brainiac though, not the one who collects worlds.

      Ryan West This Brainiac is awesome, the only thing I might have wanted changed would have been his voice. I always liked the voice used in the old animated Superman and Justice League TV shows. However, the one in this Krypton show sounds more organic and cyborg-like, instead of completely robotic like the other, so I'm still fine with it since they are going with his other origin story from the comics.

    I find this brainiac to be scary. His pitch black eyes, monotone voice and robotic movements show an extreme lack of humanity I guess. His appearance is frightening and borderline demonic looking. As for zod I can't see a egotistical kryptonian warrior like him not only bargaining in this way. Zod is a warrior and I feel that zod would fight brainiac for krypton just like superman fights brainiac for earth. Zod would see brainiac as an enemy and would fight him to the bitter end. Zod would not allow himself to be relegated to a beta just to bargain with a machine. That's just my take. But to be honest this is a pretty awesome short bid.

      Dani Lang Spoilers if you haven't watched the show, but this IS General Zod (he time-traveled from the future to save Krypton and stop Superman from ever existing). Only thing is he's not the regular one that everyone knows about; instead, he is basically (spoilers again) Zod-El, son of Seg-El (also spelled Seyg, I think), brother of Jor-El (most likely half-brother, we don't know yet), and uncle to Superman. Very Hamlet-inspired, but based on the comics.

    Yea gods, my first time seeing this....holy crap did they nail Brainiac.... Zod is alright, not seen enough of him to really say much. I don't care about his race its the beard and bald head look I don't like, Zod should have a clean shaven or very sleek well trimmed look to him, which I think the actor could pull off if they gave him a makeover.
    Having read a lot of the comments, it seems many do not understand basic bi9ology. Some seem to be surprised at Black people as aliens...seriously? Kryptonians like many "aliens" physically look just like humans, the ONLY reason for racial variation in our species is due to different climates. Kryptonians and Krypton are always being re-imagined if they have basic climates of say from Egypt to Scotland then they would most likely have white and black variants. Hell "white" people are fairly young as human races go. Heck Neanderthals may have had more racial variation than we do today.
    Plus its extremly easy to mix and match human races, you don't gain or lose abilities if you are different race. I'm mixed race and have no special white or asian abilities. My descendants could very quickly look either full white or asian in just a few generations, same with mixing with any other race, tho it does appear white genes are weaker than others as they rarely ever dominate a person's looks unless they make up a large majority, such as Dean Cain the first 1/4 Japanese Superman, I'm betting most don't realize he has asian in him. I'm half Japanese and I have amazing dark hair and natural "Superman curls" they can be kinda cool lol

      Not sure how they would have done that though, maybe through some good ol' forced perspective.
      Also, agreed on the Zod thing. SPOILERS, but this isn't even the General Zod everyone thinks he is, he is actually a different take on the character of Zod-El from the comics, uncle to Superman (and most likely half-brother to Jor-El, since I'm pretty sure Nyssa Vex will be Jor-El's mother...). It's not the usual Dru-Zod every movie goes with, so I don't see it as "destroying" the character, since we've never seen *Zod-El* on TV.

    Ladies and Gentleman, this is how you do Braniac. Why? 1. Because this Braniac is based on the Braniac from the comics. 2. The actor who plays Braniac is not that bad at playing Brainiac. However, this is not how you do Zod. Remember Zod is a power hungry meglomaniac and this version of Zod is far from being a power hungry meglomaniac. If you want a good portrayal of Zod, watch Terence Stamp's (from Superman 2) or Michael Shannon's (Man of Steel) portrayal of General Zod.

    • @TheSmokingSkull
      @TheSmokingSkull  6 лет назад +1

      Will Coppock Agreed on Brainiac, but there's something you probably don't know about Zod in this series. I'll put a spoiler tag below:
      SPOILERS
      This isn't the original Zod that we all know of from the comics, he is actually an alternate universe portrayal of Zod-El (also from the comics), uncle to Superman. This version is mainly concerned about saving Krypton, but will willingly destroy Superman's origin if he can as a bonus. He actually takes over Krypton in the very end, turns every able-bodied citizen into a member of his army, and will set out to take over the universe by basically turning EVERYONE in his army into Superman. Think about it. An army of *thousands of Supermen* all led by Zod and completely loyal to him? We see a flash-forward to the future, where Zod has gone to Earth *instead* of Superman and either taken over or pretended to be Earth's savior, since we see a giant golden statue of Zod instead of where we usually see a statue of Superman.

    • @SlyScribeV

      4. A patriot to a fault
      5. A great leader

      Well the problem is they are all owned by a movie company which doesn't take risks. That plays it safe more often than not, and when they do take risks, it often doesn't work because they didn't weigh in what is needed before taking it. Marvel does and it works out great for them. Only reason the TV shows work is because different people are ontop of those who know what to do.

Not surprising, considering Zod is the least consistent character, appearance-wise, that DC's ever had. That's particularly shocking when you consider that DC has multiple shapeshifters throughout its numerous continuities.

      Ednagettobed Naw, those are "data ports" that special tendril-tubes from his ship connect to. Watch some Injustice 2 to get context or the animated movie "Superman: Unbound". It basically allows him to control every part of his ship when he's inside it, instead of it running on auto like it is in this series. Trust me, we haven't seen Brainiac at full power in this series because he was cut off from his ship in the episode.

      James Rivera No, pretty sure Brainiac's species does not have any powers per se (that we know of, except for possibly his 12-level intellect, which has been labeled a superpower by most comic sites). This version of Brainiac turned himself into a cyborg to help him live forever (pretty sure the cyborg parts help keep his physical body alive, kind of like Darth Vader), and he gained techno-kinesis/telekinesis/telepathy/techno-regeneration as a result of his transformation. He does have access to super-tech from thousands of different worlds that he integrated into himself and his ship, so he may have even more abilities that we don't know about yet, but these are the only ones we have seen so far. The Brainiac in older animated series like "Superman: The Animated Series" and the Justice League/Justice League Unlimited TV show also had similar abilities, but that is because that version is the Brainiac who was built by Kryptonians (Krypton is using the newer origin story for Brainiac, which was also used in the animated movie "Superman: Unbound").

    @richardsmall2855 3 года назад +1

    From the comments below, the "Zod isn't black" comments annoy me. They also cause me to wonder about something ...
    Technically, human skin color is a result of pigmentation reacting to light from a yellow sun, the red blood tone with lighter skin colors, the weather humans are regularly exposed to, and the geography of the land. All of which contribute to our variety of races. This is why we have over 200 types of human. Many of these differences are however so slight from one another that for government purposes , we dumb down the number of human races to about 6. For example, we call Chinese, Polynesian, and Indonesian people Asian rather than recognize them as separate races.
    A red sun however emits light of a different type than a yellow. So it's unknown what skin color Kryptonians would be. Their DNA would be from an ancestry of people exposed to a red sun for countless millennia. They would though much like Earth have differing shades of color based on whether they lived near the pole or the equator. There also has to be a factor where they live. For example, whether they live near mountains, (which provide a lot of shade and weather effects), or near a desert, (which provides lots of light and different weather effects than the mountain). What kind of weather does Krypton have? This affects light as well. If you're in an area that rains a lot, your skin is lighter in color from less light because the sky is overcast.
    Kal-El was raised on Earth, and thus would be similar to humans because ... uhm ... Kryptonians are humanoid? Zod however was born on, raised on, and lived on Krypton for most of his life. So why does he look like an Earth person? Wouldn't he look rather alien instead? Or maybe slightly human but not as well?
