* At one point, Franchise/{{Superman}} calls Comicbook/{{Brainiac}} "alien". Not Brainiac or "Coluan". Alien. Right like Lex Luthor calls the Man of Steel “alien”. If you think about it, Brainiac is just like Lex tells himself Superman is: a super-powerful alien who regards humans like lowly life-forms.

Has nothing to do with familiarity with in universe fiction.


* There's no explanation given in the comic proper as to exactly ''how'' Brainiac's lived as long as he has (a few ''centuries'', he mentions) without even getting out of his [[BuffySpeak cocoon-shell-thing]], and how he was able to defeat Superman in their first face-to-face encounter. However, Brainiac reveals that his bio-ship is in a mutually symbiotic relationship with himself; the ship is him, and he is the ship. Thus, it's likely that the bio-ship was able to [[OneWingedAngel amp up Brainiac for his confrontation with Supes]] after it detected him escaping from the lab, because after a few centuries of bottling cities and destroying worlds, [[GenreSavvy the ship knows what's next, as does Brainiac]].
