The B Stands For
Brainiac is a word we can use to describe anyone who’s smart nowadays and some people may assume the word existed before Superman comics introduced a villain with the name in 1958. However, Superman comics came close to coining the term.
In 1956, a small kit for building simple computers was released, named Brainiac. According to a note from DC Editors at the time, they weren’t aware of the other Brainiac when they created their villain. We’ll never know for sure.
