Comment(s):

Story continues in Superman Vol. 6 #13.
A great number of variant versions of Brianiac appears in this story. At this time it is not fully known if these are Alternate Earth and/or Hypertime versions or if they are simply recreations of past selves by Brainiac Prime himself. Some appear in different incarnations that were part of the same reality in the past, just at different times, making the latter explanation more likely.

Solicitation:

HOUSE OF BRAINIAC PART ONE! BRAINIAC ATTACKS! Brainiac's Lobo army invades Metropolis in an action-packed oversized issue! The Super family and all the heroes of Metropolis join the fight, but will they be enough to hold off Brainiac's lethal and crazed soldiers?! Can Superman and Lex learn what Brainiac is searching for? He's not bottling Metropolis, so what is he collecting instead?!
