As the epic finale of Superman & Lois unfolds, it’s clear that new villains are lining up for their turn on the stage. Lex Luthor, portrayed by Michael Cudlitz, has begun to drop hints about the possible emergence of a supervillain following a mysterious exchange with Amanda McCoy. This storyline not only keeps fans on their toes, but it also sets the stage for what could be a viral showdown worthy of any gamer’s dreams. With yet another twist in this final season, could a fan-favorite like Brainiac be making his entry?

The Rise of Lex and Brainiac?
Lex Luthor’s reference to Milton Fine a.k.a. Brainiac is proceeding like a side quest you just can’t ignore. Brainiac first made his debut in Action Comics #645 back in 1989 and is one of the most iconic villains in the DC universe. Initially known for his mental prowess in a low-level circus, this psychic powerhouse morphed into a serious threat when an alien intelligence took over his body. In the gaming world, think of Brainiac as a boss-level enemy cold, methodical, and fully equipped with mind-control abilities.
The dynamic between Amanda and Lex is like that of a player trading game-changing loot. Amanda hands him a device and says, “Not much to look at, but Milton assured me it would work.” Lex closely inspects the device and responds, “How about we keep that between us? The last thing that brainiac needs is this going to his head.” This flurry of intel suggests a looming boss fight, and with Superman out of commission after being eliminated by Doomsday right at the beginning of Season 4, the stakes have never been higher.
Can Superman Make a Comeback?
With Superman dead, the tension and drama increase significantly. The series is driving through emotional arcs as Superman’s sons, Jonathan and Jordan Kent, grapple with their father’s loss while still searching for hope. The episode ended with a hologram of Superman guiding his family, which leaves players err, fans speculating about his potential revival. Drawing upon the classic “Death of Superman” comic storyline, there’s a good chance we’ll see the Man of Steel bounce back into the action before the season wraps. This resurrection could be the ultimate power-up, bringing back the hero just when all hope seems lost.
As we gear up for the remaining episodes, hints at Brainiac’s arrival mesh seamlessly with Superman’s storyline. What will happen next is anyone’s guess, but one thing is for sure: Superman & Lois promises high-octane drama that could easily rival any legendary gaming saga. Tune in Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on the CW and prepare for an epic showdown!
