With the release of Tom Taylor’s Titans: Beast World, DC set its first pillar of the “Trinity of Evil,” placing Amanda Waller at the center of events that will change the landscape of the DC Universe in 2024.

This week, the next block of this new storytelling foundation will be laid, as “House of Brainiac” debuts in the pages of Action Comics, Superman, and other DC titles.

The excitement continues with Action Comics #1065, as this next part of DC’s Superman Superstars publishing initiative finds Brainiac’s Czarnian and Man of Steel teaming up against Brainiac

The Super-Family and all the superheroes of Metropolis join the fight, but will they be enough to hold off Brainiac’s lethal and crazed soldiers?! Can Superman and Lex Luthor learn what Brainiac is searching for? He’s not bottling Metropolis, so what is he collecting instead?
