Superman vs. Brainiac #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2009 collection from DC brings together key confrontations between Superman and the android villain Brainiac, featuring stories that explore Brainiac's cold, calculating logic against Superman's humanity. The volume includes classic and modern tales showcasing Brainiac's attempts to shrink and collect cities, with Clark Kent caught in the middle of the cosmic-scale conflict.
In "The Super-Duel in Space," Superman faces off against the alien menace Brainiac during a high-stakes battle in orbit, where the villain has already begun shrinking Metropolis. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Al Plastino, this 2009 DC story captures a classic clash of wills as Superman infiltrates Brainiac’s ship, discovers the bottled Kandor, and makes a pivotal choice to safeguard it in his Fortress—leaving the villain stranded in space, his plans undone. The cover by Carlos Pacheco and Jesús Merino perfectly captures the epic scale of the confrontation.

While on an experimental rocket, Clark and Lois encounter the alien Brainiac, who plans to shrink and bottle the great cities of Earth and then use them to repopulate his planet. Superman gets inside Brainiac’s ship when the villain snatches Metropolis and there finds a bottle with the Kryptonian city of Kandor. He enters the bottle and with the help of a scientist there restores the cities of Earth while Brainiac lies in suspended animation for his trip home. Because there is not enough power to restore Kandor, Superman places the city in his Fortress, as Brainiac rockets away empty-handed.
