Celebrating Brainiac

On Brain Awareness Week we would like to celebrate a guy who many times has come very close to being the villain to face Superman on the big screen... BRAINIACKevin Smith and Tim Burton both featured him in their treatments of the franchise and unfortunately instead we recieved the rather crappy Superman Returns instead.
Brainiac first appeared in Action Comics #242 in 1958 and is definitely one of Superman's best enemies.
