{{wikipediainfo}} | {{wikipediainfo}}'''Brainiac''' was a well-known fictional character noted for his above-average intelligence, known as such in multiple universes. As a result, people sometimes derisively called others “Brainiac” when they made remarks considered by the speaker to be so obvious as not to be worth voicing — similar to [[Sherlock Holmes|“Sherlock”]]. | ||
In [[Reality Z-25 31-H]], [[Kelly]] once sarcastically called [[Jenkins]] “Brainiac” when he made a remark she considered trivially obvious. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Journey Into Misery (comic story)|Journey Into Misery]]'') | |||
In [[Universe A (Enchanted)|the fantasy world]] that was home to [[Little Noodlington]], Brainiac was also known to [[Gog]], a [[Gnome]], who derisively called [[Erman]] “Brainiac”. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Enchanted (comic story)|Enchanted]]'') | |||
== Behind the scenes == | |||
In the real world, Brainiac is a comic-book supervillain, one of [[Superman]]'s recurring nemeses. It it thus somewhat incongruous that [[Gog]], a resident of a [[Universe A (Enchanted)|fantasy world]], would be familiar with the character. As the end of ''[[Enchanted (comic story)|Enchanted]]'' reveals, however, [[Janet Jenkins]], a resident of a [[Universe (Ghost Story)|much more “realistic” universe]], spent some time in the fantasy world when she was a child decades prior to the events of ''Enchanted''; it is possible that she could have told its residents about Superman stories, or simply used the ironic “Brainiac” insult which Gog could have picked up without being aware of its pop-culture implications on [[Earth]]. | |||
