Actually the end of the comic book depicts the landing of Kal-L's timeship in a Ukrainian collective in 1938, effectively causing a predestination paradox, but six of one is half a dozen of the other.

He obviously was prepared and more than that he was counting on Brainiac capturing him. Literally the only thing Luthor did not account for is that Brainiac would have a self destruct wired to his hard drive. Presumably he could have even figured that out if he would have calculated somewhere past the 10th decimal point.

Now what can we say that explains his surprise within the fictional world itself. One possibility is that he is acting shocked in order to fool Brainiac. He may have calculated that if he didn't act scared Brainiac would realize his plan and kill him immediately. Another possibility is that the actual method of capture was a surprise to Luthor. He had calculated he would be captured but not precisely how. Once he was grabbed by tentacles from behind it caused an initial shock.

The surprise is clearly for the benefit of the audience. If Luthor were drawn with a look of smug satisfaction we wouldn't get the great reveal when he takes down Brainiac.

there's no sound in space

In the comic they add an extra segment about what happens next, how there's a different explanation to superman travel to earth, and how he is linked to Lex in this dimension/storyline. Hope they add it. (It's am interesting "twist"to end this story)(had the chance to read this one borrowed once)

JUST TOO GOOD!

This is so good!!!!!

Yeah, but he seemed real suprised when Brainiac captured him so that leads me to believe that he was not expecting that to happen. It seems that he more got lucky that for whatever reason he was not put under the knife to have his brain messed up.

hmmm If Luther worked out his plan to the tenth decimal then why was he not prepared for Braniac to capture him and try to reprogram him by doing the brain surgery. I don't think Luther was counting on that happening.

No one more its sick! Love this series

I'm confused. Werent there cities on braniacs ship?

you didnt add the end

Was this the last episode?

Interesting. As I understood the premise of "Red Son" All events were exactly the same as what we're used to, with the exception of Superman landing in Russia. So I don't see why Bruce Wayne would have never come into existence. Though maybe with the rise of communism the Wayne's never went to the theater that fateful night, and just played "Go Fish" instead, or something like that. XD Thank you for your answer, though. :)

This is so awesome guys put in red son in the search bar and you can watch the whole movie including the ending which is not this one

Just a bit more yet.

And in the end Luthor won... Can anyone tell me, what wound up happening to Bruce Wayne? I know there was a Batman in this, but it was a Russian fellow, not Wayne. I sort of assume that because he was never mentioned, his parents probably never died, and he never became Batman. Anyone know for sure?

Nope, I believe theres one or two more that just ties up lose ends!

This the last one?

So this is the last episode?

maybe its not bruce but thomas wayne jr.

Wow

batman was in a previous one

there most likely was no "bruce wayne" but there was a batman as you saw his last name was batman_____ which led to his identity batman but in all truths he isnt bruce wayne just another batman

Kal-el distant great grandson of luthor, final episodes will spin u out, full movie on KZfaq, search red son.... Enjoy

It's never stated.

Lex won but superman is not dead aka that is not earth it is krypton thousands of years before it advanced and thats where superman originates and lands on earth in Kansas

Lol RIP Jimmy you were black-washed by the capitalist machine.
