From what I uderstand of the comic, he was the reason why no one believed Superman's father...
Spoiler:Brainiac is a super computer programed to learn all that is learn-able. When Krypton was dying, Brainiac found away to complete his programing by making sure that no new knowledge comes from Krypton. So instead of helping to save the people, he doom them and left Krypton.
Then he went from planet to planet, gaining all knowledge he can from a planet, and then he destroys the planet. He took human form, but was always a computer. Before going after Earth, he tries to recruit Surperman. However, Surperman destroys Brainiac's ship and then Brainiac is stuck on Earth. Every couple of years, he and Surperman trade punches.
In fact, Brainiac built Doomsday (who killed Surperman).
I hope this Brainiac lives up to his comic counter-part.
This was also a great episode. Maybe I have low stander when when it comes to shows, but when I'm entertain, I'm happy.

great episode! Clark almost killed Lana! That was scary. Well next week seems even more exciting
hey here is a question. I have never read the comics. Why is Clark affected by Kryptonite? I mean it's from his planet, and in the movie the kryptonians weren't weakened by it. Is it because it's on a planet with yellow sun??

The idea is that Kryptonite is radioactive, to Kryptonian physiology only. Different types of Kryptonite will effect Surperman differently, but they will all kill him.
The reason why Kryptonians were not effective in the movie, is because not all rock/crystal/metal from Krypton is Kryptonite. Just like not all rock/crystal/metal is radioactive on Earth.

Now if they try and follow some of the paths and characters still around then Lana will be alive by the end of the last ever season.
That's just my thoughts on this - and on this subject of deaths check out

Saw this last night, and quite enjoyed it.
As for killing Lana, well, if they keep things in line with comic book continuity, she can't die, becauseSpoiler:in the current comic continuity, she is married to Pete!
Now, depending on whether or not they follow continuity at all, or *which* continuity they follow (pre-Crisis, movie, current comic continuity, etc) you really only have two choices as to who can die.
If they follow the continuity of the movies, and not of the current comics, then Jonathan can die (Pa Kent is dead in the movies, but he's alive in current continuity in the comics).
Chloe is totally expendable, since she was created for Smallville only. I hope they don't kill her off though, at least not until the very last, or next-to-last episode.
Everyone else is alive in current comic book continuity.
Of course, there's always the question as to whether Jor-El was telling Clark the truth. Maybe no one close to him is going to die, and Jor-El is just playing with Clark, trying to influence him.
Anyhow, back to the episode:
Interesting that Clark now knows about Brainiac's origins.
I wonder if Lex is going to be even more suspicious of Clark now, or if he thinks the silver meteor rock gave Clark powers, in addition to making him paranoid.
Who sent the meteor rock to Lana in the first place? Lex? Brainiac?
All in all, a very interesting, entertaining episode!Proud Canadian and army wife!
