The concept of superheroes gone rogue isn’t new. From the Injustice games, where Superman turns tyrant, to the DC Extended Universe’s evil Superman, we’ve seen heroes take a dark turn. 

But in “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,” things aren’t as complicated. So, if you were wondering how Brainiac managed to get a grip on the Justice League in “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,” here’s the answer. 

“Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” is set in the Arkhamverse, where the Justice League, controlled by Dr. Vril Dox (Brainiac), are merely his slaves due to mind control. Brainiac’s sinister plan involves brainwashing the Justice League, not just for powers, but to rewrite reality, rebuild Colu, and establish a new world order using their psionic abilities.

How Did Brainiac Make the Justice League Submit to Him?

I Personally can't wait to kill all the other 12 Brainiac's in numerous DLC in the future. Nothing but content, content, content.😫 pic.twitter.com/2yJNRlhLAo

The “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” game is a part of the Arkhamverse, which initially didn’t include the Justice League. However, times have changed, and now, the League seems to be all about saving the day until a certain villain crashes the party.

So, who’s the culprit behind the Justice League’s transformation? It’s none other than Brainiac, the big bad in Rocksteady’s live-service game. 

The game’s events occur five years after the conclusion of Batman: Arkham Knight. The driving force behind the plot? A mission to eliminate the Justice League.

One thing people are looking over with @SuicideSquadWB. The simple fact Batman is mind controlled by Brainiac is a middle finger to fans when we've played 4 games that emphasized his ability to break through mind control or alteration from NUMEROUS villains. pic.twitter.com/N1CM2G6L8j

This mission isn’t without its consequences, as it involves the demise of many beloved DC superheroes, including Batman. But here’s the twist: these heroes aren’t themselves; they’re drones under the control of Dr. Vril Dox, better known as Brainiac.

Before we unravel Brainiac’s role in “Suicide Squad,” let’s take a quick trip through his comic book history. 

It appears that in Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, the game concludes once all the Justice League members have been defeated, meaning that Brainiac will still be alive contributing to the release of post-launch content … #SuicideSquadGame pic.twitter.com/TUWTheZbIf

Brainiac made his debut in Action Comics #242 (July 1958) as an alien from Krypton, briefly challenging Superman. 

However, his origin underwent significant changes in Superman #167 (1964), where he became a cyborg created by the android Tyrants of Colu for espionage.

For the penultimate boss, I was expecting a lot more to this.

The squad celebrates his death, not realising from here on out. The earth will not have a Superman to protect them. If they kill Brainiac they're still screwed for the future. pic.twitter.com/e93kzTklik

Over the years, Brainiac has seen retcons and redesigns, but his modern adaptations draw heavily from the Brainiac vs. Superman storyline in Action Comics #866 to #870 (2008).

In “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,” Brainiac’s role closely mirrors his mind-bending exploits from The New 52 comics. The game’s version of Brainiac retains the revised origin and powers, along with the Coluan identity of Vril Dox.

As players uncover during the campaign, Brainiac has gradually subjugated the Justice League by brainwashing them into mindless puppets. His goal? Well, it’s not just about power; it aligns with The New 52 Brainiac’s logic. 

Anyone who said: "They didn't kill Batman respectfully" is dumb.
Batman and other JL members were captured by Brainiac, and they all died that very moment, their humanity died after being brainwashed. Not after Suicide Squad physically killed them. https://t.co/RVH7htzAxi

By harnessing the psionic power of these possessed superheroes, Brainiac aims to reshape reality, rebuild Colu, and usher in a new world order.

The story unfolds as Amanda Waller assembles Task Force X, sending them on a mission shrouded in secrecy. They find themselves in Metropolis, face-to-face with Brainiac’s control over the Justice League, turning Earth’s mightiest heroes into his unwitting pawns.

Honestly this version of the Justice League must have sucked if they can't even fight Brainiac pic.twitter.com/4lKF5oxMr0

So, there you have it – Brainiac’s takeover of the Justice League in “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” is a complex, mind-bending saga that draws from the character’s rich comic book history.

What will it take for Task Force X to break Brainiac’s hold on the Justice League? Are you ready to jump into the action and take on Brainiac’s controlled superheroes yourself?
