Superman and Brainiac Queen are framed by an exploding Krypton.
Summary DC's Absolute Power event begins with deadly symmetry, with the Brainiac Queen poised to become the ultimate weapon against Superman. The parallels between the two are set out in explicit detail, with the circumstances in which Brainiac Queen arrives at Amanda Waller's doorstep eerily imitating Superman's own escape from Krypton, especially as depicted in the iconic 1978 Superman movie.
Close When Amanda Waller recovers Brainiac Queen in the "Stage Three" story by Williamson and Gleb Melnikov from Absolute Power: Ground Zero #1, Waller "raises" the blank version of Brainiac Queen in a simulation set in the American heartland, blatantly thumbing her nose at Superman's own coming of age with the Kents.
Brainiac Queen comes closest to driving a knife into the heart of the Superman narrative by echoing his origins so closely.
