Action Comics' Joshua Williamson Teases Epic House of Brainiac Moments for Supergirl, Lex, and More

The House of Brainiac is officially underway with Action Comics #1064, though the seeds of the storyline were planted all the way back in Superman #1. While the issue begins with a much-needed day off for Lois Lane, things quickly descend into chaos when Brainiac's army of Czarnian army attacks Metropolis, and the Superman family will feel the impact of that attack for some time. Speaking of the Superman family, they are set to have a major role to play in this story, and ComicBook.

"The character that surprised me, actually, was Supergirl, because Supergirl, I knew she was going to play an important role. So was Superboy. I always knew Conner would play an important role, but Supergirl, I really like writing her, and she kind of took over a couple scenes," Williamson said."Because when you're with a character, you have to sometimes stop yourself and think, 'Not what I would do.

The Luthors aren't being left out of the fun either though, with both Lena and Lex having major roles to play throughout the story."And then Con has a big moment, and then Lena has a couple big pieces just based on even her history with Brainiac, and then Lex does something... It's funny. When I started writing Superman, I had certain rules for myself where I was going to try not to go backwards too much. I have a habit, you can see with some of my work, I go backwards.

Williamson is going above and beyond to make sure everyone gets their time to shine, and for fellow fans of the work he's done with villains like Livewire and Parasite, you need not worry, as they'll get their limelight as well."So Lex has a really big moment.
