Quotes9

  • Brainiac: I needed a way of attracting your attention.
  • Lex Luthor: There's always e-mail.
  • Brainiac: Actually, I wanted to greet you in person. But as you can see, I'm not myself... yet. So far, I've used these drones, but they're far too primitive to finish the job. For that, I need your hands... and your brilliance.
  • Lex Luthor: You flatter me, Brainiac, but I already have a day job.
  • Brainiac: I calculated we would meet again, Kal-El. So I designed some improvements.
  • Brainiac: Welcome, Kal-El.
  • Superman: Brainiac!
  • Brainiac: Reactivated and ready.
  • Brainiac: Why are you stopping?
  • Lex Luthor: I'm not some infernal machine! I'm human. I need food and rest
  • Brainiac: There's no time for rest. But if it's food you need...
  • [one of his drones smashes open a vending machine]
  • Brainiac: So, we meet again, Lex Luthor.
  • Lex Luthor: Brainiac!
  • Brainiac: In the flesh, so to speak. I managed to survive your betrayal by downloading into these computers.
  • Lex Luthor: They control the Sky Sentry.
  • Lex Luthor: I must admit a grudging admiration, Brainiac. These microcircuits are more advanced than anything I've ever seen.
  • Brainiac: Or will ever see again.
  • Lex Luthor: You can't kill me until I finish the job. And I'll rot in hell before I help you anymore!
  • Brainiac: [downloading himself into his physical body] I believe I can take it from here.
  • Mercy Graves: Security, I want to review all building tapes from the last 24 hours.
  • Lex Luthor: It appears your little deception is starting to unravel.
  • Brainiac: A minor problem, easily eliminated.
  • Brainiac: This morning's incident was not simple equipment failure.
  • Lex Luthor: Who is this?
  • Brainiac: If you want more answers, go to the research and development lab in sector 6.
  • Lex Luthor: I'm the head of the world's largest multinational corporation! Don't you think someone will notice I'm missing?
  • Brainiac: [creating a CG rendering of him] No one's irreplaceable.
  • Lex Luthor: Ms. Graves, I'm still pursuing my investigation. Cancel my appointments for tomorrow. And no phone calls until you hear from me. Understood?
  • Mercy Graves: Yes, sir.
  • Brainiac: There. Shall we get to work?
