Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In most continuities, she gets introduced when Clark already has been Superman and worked in Daily Planet for several years, and he is usually at least a decade older than her (biologically, that is). Here Kara meets Clark when he is fresh from high school. She even ends up adopting her Supergirl identity before he becomes Superman.


Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalVillainy: While Zod has always been a villain, here he is the one responsible for Krypton's destruction, which was not the case in the comics.

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: In the comics Brainiac is fixated on acquiring knowledge and is characterized as coldly logical. Here he’s driven primarily by his loyalty to the House of Zod and is much more emotional with sadistic tendencies.



* CompositeCharacter: Starts out as the villainous Brainiac that is an enemy of Clark, but later joins the Legion as Brainiac 5 who in the comics is a descendant of the original Brainiac.

* {{Expy}}: He may initially appear to be one of [[{{Franchise/Terminator}} the T-1000]] due to some obvious similarities, such as being a robotic villain with a true form made of liquid metal and shapeshifting abilities that let him impersonate anyone he's been in contact with and form melee weapons from his own body mass. But, it's ultimately subverted as this version of Brainiac has a much larger array of abilities beyond those and is significantly smarter and more cunning than the T-1000, making him a far more dangerous and formidable threat.

* GoodIsDumb: For an all-knowing A.I, his approach to Clark is unbelievably stupid. Through his needlessly harsh treatment of Clark, and his tendency to never explain anything, he pushed Clark away for years, and came close to getting himself destroyed when Brainiac manipulated Clark into nearly destroying the Fortress.
