The other Brainiac 5
It's hard to pin down a defining moment out of a relatively small pool of, well, moments, good or bad. The Legion cartoon and its comics were both cancelled after just two years, after all.


Still... there are some things classically Brainiac 5.

One: Having a cunning plan to turn the tables on space pirates that steal from your friends? Good!






Having installed a backdoor program to grant you personal control over your fellow Legionnaires: Bad.

Everyone finding out like that? Really bad.

But that's Brainy: If a little SCIENCE can save the day and keep his friends safe, well, damn the consequences, that science is getting used. It's, uh, far from perfect--the comics and second season were both a little uneven-- but it's some kind of moment.

That is a great concluding line and Superman's jaw is on the floor. You know he can make that guy fly around like a remote control airplane

Hmm... was this before or after that issue of Brave and the Bold where Batman steals Brainy's flight ring? It almost reads like a snarky commentary on that scene.

Well, the cover says October 2008; when was B&TB?

September '07. So I guess it could be a deliberate response.

booster gold has stole brainy's flight ring which was in a museum and rip hunter stole one when he went into the future with Daniel Carter.

Don't forget though, that the Legion went back in time to capture Booster, only to discover that he was supposed to be then with a flight ring. So Brainiac and the others decided to leave him in peace.

All I can think when I see that scan is "wow, Vultan really hit the skids."

Somewhere, Brian Blessed Weeps, and then his tears go and steal a minibike and jump over the grand canyon.
