    Default Did Brainiac just...(SPOILERS Justice League #32)

    Spoilers alert!!



    I just read the Justice League 32 and I have a question to other readers:


    Did just Brainiac evolved into the same stage seen in Convergence or it is another shape reminiscence of that stage? I mean, with time travel you can't say for sure if for him this is happening before or after that story. And you must admit they are pretty much look-a-like:

    Brainiac Convergence:



    Brainiac One million (JL #32):
    "Never assign to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity or ignorance."

    "Great stories will always return to their original forms"

    "Nobody is more dangerous than he who imagines himself pure in heart; for his purity, by definition, is unassailable." James Baldwin

    Reading the summary I also have to ask readers, is Snyder depicting Brainiac as Kryptonian?

    I'm going to guess no, on the basis that 1. I don't think they look especially similar, and 2. Why on Earth would anyone want to bother referring back to Convergence?
    Buh-bye

    Is Brainiac supposed to be like Galactus now?

    Brainiac floats between being like Galactus and Kang for the past 2 decades. Futures End and Convergence, really pushed the Galactus angle though.

    Some of the arm designs, the gold filigrees, and I suppose the high-tech interiors, are definitely reminiscent of Convergence Brainy but it's not one-to-one by any means,

    That said ... the Hyper-Brainiac at the edge of the Universe that can bottle TIMELINES is an idea from Convergence with a lot of Grant Morrison influence built into it - the (?) on the Multiversity Map opposite WonderWorld was curated to be the home of an ultimate Hyper-Brainiac. So seeing the One Million characters here, and bottled timelines, and then Brainy evolving into a One Million version of himself reminiscent of Convergence who can trap Hypertime, feels pretty much entirely like Snyder playing with Grant Morrison toys.
    Retro315 no more. Anonymity is so 2005.
