“I am the Brain Interactive Construct. No matter my form, my intellect remains formidable. Do not underestimate me.”
―Brainiac introducing himself
The Brain Interactive Construct, also known as Brainaic, is a major antagonist featured in Smallville.
He is a computer and artificial intelligence designed by Dax-Ur and created by Jor-El, who hoped to use it to help the Council and stop Zod and his followers. However, Zod corrupted the program, using it as a tool to destroy Krypton. Eihgteen years later, he comes to Earth, setting his sights on Clark Kent with every intention of destroying him and releasing Zod from the Phantom Zone.
However, Brainiac was taken into the thirty-first century and reprogrammed as Brainiac-5 and had become a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, alongside Saturn Girl, Lightning Lad, and Cosmic Boy. He helps Clark move on from his father's death and defeat the monitors before they can destroy Smallville's Earth-1.
