Biography[]

Superman: Unbound[]

Vril Dox modified himself to become the Collector of worlds and of knowledge, enhancing his brain and body. Known as Brainiac, he travelled from planet to planet and took samples of the inhabitants and bottled a major city before destroying the planet.

One of the planets that he targeted was Krypton, he sent his robots to the planet and took Kandor for his collection. He left the planet because it was already dying.

Years later, one of Brainiac's robots scouted out Earth. Superman destroyed the robot and then left Earth to find Brainiac and stop him. Superman and Brainiac fought, but Brainiac overpowered him and shrunk him down into the Bottle City of Kandor as a specimen.

Superman escaped the bottle by causing a disruption and took Brainiac by surprise, disabling him and his ship before fleeing. When he regained consciousness, Brainiac was enraged and repaired his ship with ease before setting course to Earth where he began to attack Metropolis, preparing to bottle it and destroy Earth.

Brainiac was successful in bottling Metropolis despite Superman and Supergirl's efforts and he captured the Kryptonians. He extracted the location of Kandor from Superman and then fought as the Man of Steel broke free. Brainiac launched a missile at the sun to destroy it and Earth. Supergirl raced after it and stopped it whilst Superman battled Brainiac, taking the fight to Earth's surface where Brainiac became overwhelmed by everything on Earth, the sounds, the germs, etc. He burst into flames until only his cybernetic brain was left.

Superman placed the brain and some remnants of skeleton in his Fortress of Solitude where the brain powered back on.
