Bizarro () is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The grapheme was created by writer Otto Binder and artist George Papp as a "mirror epitome" of Superman and first appeared in Superboy #68 (1958).^[1]

Debuting in the Silvery Historic period of Comic Books (1956 – c. 1970), the character has oft been portrayed as an antagonist to Superman, though on occasion he as well takes on an anti-hero part, and has appeared in both comic books and graphic novels likewise as other DC Comics-related products such every bit blithe and alive-action television series, trading cards, toys, and video games.

Publication history [edit]

Bizarro debuted in Superboy #68 (embrace-dated October 1958, only on sale in August^[2]), writer Otto Folder casting the character as a Frankenstein's monster pastiche that possessed all the powers of Superboy.^[3] Shunned for his unenviable advent, the teen version of Bizarro but appeared in a single comic volume story. An adult version appeared around the aforementioned fourth dimension in the Superman daily newspaper comic strip written past Alvin Schwartz, debuting in Episode 105: "The Battle With Bizarro" (strips 6147–6242: Baronial 25, 1958 to December 13, 1958). According to comics historian Mark Evanier, Schwartz long claimed that he originated the Bizarro concept prior to the character's appearance in Superboy.^[4] The newspaper storyline introduced the strange speech patterns that became synonymous with the graphic symbol, with all of Bizarro's comments pregnant the opposite (eastward.g. "bad" means "good"). The newspaper version wore a "B" on his chest, as opposed to Superman'due south distinctive "South".^[5]

Schwartz stated:^[6]

I was striving, you might say, for that mirror-prototype, that reverse. And out of a machine which would reveal the negative Superman, came the mirror image – e'er remembering that in a mirror everything is reversed... The times were such that one-dimensional characters, your standard superheroes, fifty-fifty in comics, seemed rather simplistic, like paper cut-outs. What was demanded was the full dimensional personality – a figure that carried a shadow, if you like. I was certainly inspired to some degree also by C. M. Jung's archetype of "the shadow" – and Bizarro certainly reflected that, likewise.

Binder introduced the developed version of the grapheme into the Superman comic book, this time wearing an "Due south", in Activeness Comics #254 (July 1959).^[seven] Bizarro proved popular, and somewhen starred in a Bizarro World feature in Adventure Comics for fifteen problems, running from consequence #285–299 (June 1961 – August 1962),^[8] as well as in a special all-Bizarro fourscore-Page Giant (Superman #202, December 1967/January 1968). The character fabricated forty appearances^[ix] in the Superman family of titles – Activeness Comics, Superman, Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen, Superman's Daughter Friend, Lois Lane, Adventure Comics, Secret Society of Super Villains, and DC Comics Presents – from 1959 to 1984, prior to a reboot of the DC Universe as a result of the limited serial Crisis on Infinite Earths #one–12 (Apr 1985 – March 1986).

Bizarro was reintroduced into the DC Universe in a ane-off appearance with characterization similar to his original Superboy appearance in Superman: The Human being of Steel #5 (December 1986). He was later revived in the "Bizarro's World" series that ran through the Superman titles in March and April 1994, and in Action Comics Almanac #eight in 1996. An unrelated 4-effect limited series titled A. Bizarro (July–October) was published in 1999.

Yet another version was introduced during the "Emperor Joker" storyline in September–October 2000. Remaining in DC Comics continuity, this Bizarro continued to make semi-regular guest appearances that firmly established the character as part of the Superman mythos.

Fictional character biography [edit]

Pre-Crunch Bizarro [edit]

Full general Zod's Bizarro Ground forces [edit]

Full general Dru-Zod had originally created bizarro duplicates of himself to dominate the planet Krypton. The Bizarros had no power because they were not under a xanthous dominicus, but they were soldiers ready to kill and die without hesitation. This was the reason why Zod was banished to the Phantom Zone for 25 Krypton sunday-cycles.^[10]

Bizarro-Superboy [edit]

Some 12 years subsequently, totally oblivious to these facts, a scientist on Earth is demonstrating his newly invented "duplicating ray" to Superboy, and an accident causes the ray to duplicate the superhero. The re-create, apace labeled "Bizarro", is a flawed false as it possesses chalky white skin and childlike erratic behavior. Shunned by the people of Smallville, Bizarro befriends a bullheaded girl named Melissa, and loses all hope when he realizes that the girl did not shun or flee from him considering she was blind. Superboy is somewhen forced to "kill" the "less than perfect" clone, using the remains of the duplicating machine, which acts like blue kryptonite (as opposed to green kryptonite, Superboy'southward weakness) on the copy. The whole business proved unexpectedly easy equally Bizarro deliberately destroyed himself past colliding with the duplicating machine's fragment. The ensuing explosion miraculously restores Melissa'due south eyesight.^[11]

Bizarro #i [edit]

Years subsequently, Superman's arch-foe Lex Luthor recreates the "duplicating ray" and uses it on the hero, hoping to control the duplicate that became known as Bizarro #1. The Bizarro that is created, withal, is confused, stating: "Me non human... me non beast... me not even fauna! Me unhappy! Me don't belong in globe of living people! Me don't know difference between right and wrong – good and evil!"^[6] Luthor is arrested past Bizarro for re-creating him, but forgotten as Bizarro attempts to emulate Superman, creating havoc in the city of Metropolis and virtually exposing Superman's secret identity as Clark Kent. When Bizarro falls in love with reporter Lois Lane, she uses the duplicating ray on herself to create a "Bizarro Lois", who is instantly attracted to Bizarro. In addition, he besides used the duplicating ray on himself to create "New Bizarro" who afterwards dies from exposure to Green Kryptonite. The Bizarros go out Earth together, determined to find a home where they tin can be themselves.^[12]

Superman encounters the couple once more, discovering that Bizarro – now called Bizarro #1 – has used a version of the duplication ray to create an entire world of Bizarros, who at present reside on a cube-shaped planet called "Htrae" (Earth spelled backwards).^[13] Bizarro #1 and Bizarro-Lois #1 as well give nascence to a kid who, while super-powered, appears to be totally homo. Considered a freak past Bizarro standards (out of resentment for the mode he was treated by Earth humans, Bizarro #1 made a law that they must act the contrary of humans, causing no end of lunacy), the kid is the catalyst for a brief war between Htrae and Earth.^[14] Blue Kryptonite is as well invented during this state of war, besides every bit the temporary existence of Bizarro-Supergirl. Bizarro also has a series of adventures on Htrae, aiding a normal Jimmy Olsen when he is accidentally trapped there,^[15] preventing an invasion of blue kryptonite statues,^[16] and stopping the Bizarro version of Titano.^[17]

Bizarro'southward influence is also felt on Earth: Jimmy Olsen is inadvertently turned into a Bizarro for a while,^[xviii] and a new teen version of Bizarro travels to the 30th century and attempts to bring together the Legion of Super-Heroes. When he is rejected by the Legion, the Bizarro teen creates his own Bizarro version of the Legion, which Superboy eventually persuades him to disband.^[19]

When Bizarro encounters Superman once again, his powers are now the opposite of Superman's (such every bit freeze vision as opposed to heat vision and heat breath rather than freeze breath), and he attempts to kidnap Lois Lane.^[20] Bizarro as well temporarily joins the Hugger-mugger Social club of Super Villains to battle the Justice League of America and Captain Comet.^{[21] [22]}

Bizarro appears in the Alan Moore-scripted "Whatsoever Happened to the Homo of Tomorrow?", in Superman #423 (September 1986). Bizarro goes berserk and destroys the Bizarro World and its inhabitants, then travels to City and wreaks havoc before abruptly committing suicide. This and many other deaths turn out to exist the machinations of Mister Mxyzptlk, who had begun a rampage of law-breaking. Superman is unable to undo the deaths, but kills Mxyzptlk and and then uses gold kryptonite on himself.

Bizarro'southward final pre-Crunch appearance was in DC Comics Presents #97 (September 1986), which was also the final issue of that series. Afterward being empowered by a hideously disfigured Phantom Zone magician, Mr. Mxyzptlk destroys Zrfff and then causes the Bizarro world to implode, killing all its inhabitants. Bizarro's severed head crashes onto Clark Kent's desk and addresses Clark Kent before his fake life ends. Bizarro does not announced in the Crisis on Infinite Earths, apparently because of this story's events.

This story directly contradicts a World'due south Finest story where it is revealed that onetime in the future, Htrae is transformed into a more normal world (egg-shaped rather than cubical) by the radiation from an exploding celestial body. The Bizarros are changed into normal people without powers, but still retain vestiges of their Bizarro laws (defunction hung outside the windows of a house, etc.).^[23]

Post-Crisis [edit]

Projection Changeling [edit]

Afterwards the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths, Lex Luthor orders his scientific team to create a clone of Superman that was part of Project Changeling. Incorrectly starting from the assumption that Superman is a human with metahuman abilities (his conflicting origin had not yet been revealed), the process results in a flawed re-create, which Luthor dismissively refers to every bit "...this bizarre – Oh, forget it", before ordering for the field of study to be disposed of. The clone survives and, although mute and possessed of only limited intelligence and vague memories of Clark Kent's life, attempts to mimic Superman. He kidnaps Lois Lane and is finally destroyed when colliding with Superman in mid-air.^[24] Each fourth dimension he exerted himself, the clone crumbled slightly. When Lois Lane's sister, who had been blinded in a terrorist attack, is exposed to Bizarro's dust, she regains her sight. While Superman had non expected this effect, he speculated that Bizarro heard the sis explain her partial recovery and may have deliberately allowed himself to be killed in order to cure her.^[25]

Bizarro Ii [edit]

A second Bizarro, able to speak and think improve due to genetic technology by Luthor, appears in a 5-event substory in the clone plague story-arc titled "Bizarro'south World" (start in Superman vol. ii #87). Before he died, this Bizarro seriously injured Happersen, kidnapped Lois, created a ramshackle dummy version of Metropolis in a warehouse (to parody Superman'south oft rescuing Lois, he deliberately exposed her to and "rescued" her from ane lethal danger after another), abducted Lana Lang, proposed to Lois and finally died in Luthor's labs.^[26] During this period, Superman besides had to cope with an unending increment in his powers due to exposure to "majestic kryptonite" in the climax of the Death of Superman and Reign of the Supermen story-arcs.^[27]

Dabney Donovan's Bizarro [edit]

One other Bizarro is created using Lex Luthor's clone procedure, past Lex Luthor's estranged wife Contessa Portenza and Dabney Donovan before long after Superman regained his normal powers when he expended his electromagnetic ones. This Bizarro abducted Lex Luthor's babe daughter and intended to send her by rocket to another planet, emulating Kal-El's escape from Krypton. His pile of explosives and bombs, meant to launch the rocket, would have killed her instead, and Superman had to shield her when Bizarro threw the launch switch. Bizarro 3, already self-destructing from a genetic booby trap encoded into him by his creator, perished in the explosion.^[28]

Joker'due south Bizarro/Bizarro #1 [edit]

Another version of Bizarro possesses all the abilities of Superman only with a artless mentality and method of spoken language. He is created by Batman's arch-enemy the Joker when the villain steals the powers of the 5th-dimensional imp Mister Mxyzptlk. Creating a twisted version of Earth chosen "Jokerworld" – a perfect cube with Joker'due south image on each facet – the villain designates Bizarro to be the planet's greatest hero and leader of a reimagined "JLA" (the "Joker's League of Anarchy"). When Mxyzptlk regains his powers, the imp allows Bizarro and several other beings to remain on the restored Earth.^{[29] [30] [31] [32] [33]}

Bizarro suffers a setback when captured by the Pokolistanian dictator General Zod. Zod beats and tortures Bizarro, simply because the animal resembles Superman. The hero rescues Bizarro, and to help him adjust to the normal Globe rebuilds Bizarro'southward "Graveyard of Solitude" (the opposite of Superman'southward Fortress of Solitude).^[34]

During the "Infinite Crunch" storyline, Bizarro is tricked into joining the reformed Secret Gild of Super Villains by Wink'south foe Zoom. In a battle with the Freedom Fighters Bizarro accidentally kills the Human Bomb, repeatedly hit the hero to meet the flashes of light that are produced from the kinetic energy of the blows.^[35]

Bizarro becomes involved when Kryptonian criminals, led past General Zod, escape to Earth.^[36] Wishing to create a home for himself, Bizarro travels into deep infinite to a solar system occupied by a blue dominicus. Afterwards creating a cube shaped planet, filled with distorted versions of various buildings and locations on Earth, Bizarro is still alone. The blue sunday, however, gives Bizarro a new ability called "Bizarro Vision", which allows him to create new Bizarros. When this fails, Bizarro kidnaps Jonathan Kent, Superman'due south adopted father on Globe. Superman rescues his father and helps Bizarro become his world's greatest hero.^[37]

Bizarro eventually appears on the planet Throneworld, befriending and aiding Earth hero Adam Strange and allies Prince Gavyn, Helm Comet, and the Weird. Together they participate in the war betwixt conflicting worlds Rann and Thanagar,^[38] and against villains Lady Styx and Synnar.^[39] Bizarro eventually visits the grave of a deceased Jonathan Kent, and is then sent (by rogue Kryptonians) with other Superman foes to the inter-dimensional prison, the Phantom Zone.^[40]

Bizarro has a serial of encounters with erstwhile Hole-and-corner Society ally Solomon Grundy,^[41] and during the events of Blackest Night, Bizarro confronts the Black Lantern version of Grundy. Bizarro destroys Grundy by driving him into the heart of the Lord's day.^[42]

Later, while investigating an object that crashes into a Metropolis park and leaves a massive crystallized crater in its center, Dr. Light and Gangbuster observe a Bizarro-like animate being that resembles Supergirl.^[43] The Bizarro Supergirl takes the heroes earnest, simply is defeated in battle past the real Supergirl.^[44] It is revealed that the Bizarro Supergirl is a refugee from the cube-shaped Bizarro World, and was sent to Earth by her cousin after their planet was attacked past a existence known as the Godship. Dr. Light attempts to accept the Bizarro Supergirl to South.T.A.R. Labs, simply to exist violently knocked unconscious by Supergirl, who and so absconds with her doppelganger and her ship, hoping to cease the Godship and save Bizarro World.^[45] Later on taking Bizarro Supergirl back to Bizarro World, Bizarro Superman is reunited with Bizarro Supergirl.^[46]

The New 52 [edit]

In 2011, The New 52 rebooted the DC Universe. Two versions of Bizarro commencement appear in the Forever Evil issue.

Bailiwick A-0 [edit]

5 years ago, Lex Luthor, intending to create his personal ground forces of Supermen, attempted to splice Superman's Deoxyribonucleic acid with human DNA and injected it into a teenage test subject named Bobby. Instead, he transforms into a hulking white-skinned monster with cryonic vision, incendiary breath, and immunity to Kryptonite which is labeled "Subject A-0". Deducing his weakness, Luthor hits him with full-bodied solar radiation that oversaturates his cells and kills him. Luthor then takes samples of the creature to continue his experiment, deciding to clone a purely Kryptonian trunk. 5 years afterwards, a capsule labeled B-0 is shown.^[47]

Subject B-0 [edit]

Afterwards the Criminal offence Syndicate takes over the world, Luthor releases Subject field B-0, though his transformation is only halfway through. When he kills a security guard named Otis on Luthor's orders, Luthor is pleased and decides to use the imperfect clone in his plan to accept the Syndicate down.^[48] Later, when Luthor and his team of villains laissez passer through a tunnel, B-0 is revealed to exist afraid of darkness. Luthor tries to comfort him with a story nearly his own fears, but ultimately wonders whether the clone was a waste product of time; B-0 and so speaks his first words, "Bizarro... try", much to Luthor'due south surprise.^[49] Though initially doubtful, Luthor grows truly fond of "Bizarro", who proves to exist a powerful asset throughout the effect.

During the final confrontation against the World-three invaders, Bizarro battles Mazahs, the alternate version of Luthor himself; although he initially has the upper hand, Bizarro is fatally wounded and left to die. Luthor badly tries to fix him, to no avail, and they share a sorrowful goodbye. Enraged over the death of Bizarro, Lex Luthor murders his Earth-3 analogue, avenging Bizarro. After the battle is over, Luthor restarts the cloning process; when one of his scientists states it should take about ten years to fully develop a perfect Kryptonian clone, Luthor corrects him by saying information technology will have only v years, revealing he truly intends to create a perfect copy of Bizarro.^[50]

DC Rebirth [edit]

In 2016, DC Comics implemented some other relaunch of its books called "DC Rebirth", which restored its continuity to a form much equally it was prior to "The New 52".

A clone of Bizarro is found inside of a tube in a train car stolen by Black Mask sometime later on the Crime Syndicate of America incident. Red Hood and Artemis spring aboard the train car attempting to steal a weapon, not expecting information technology to be a clone of Superman. Bizarro eventually joins Red Hood's Outlaws.^[51] During this time, Bizarro is stricken with a sickness which causes his cells to rapidly deteriorate. Later on saving his teammates in the Outlaws, he dies. Lex Luthor takes his trunk to try to resurrect him, on the condition that he be the property of Lexcorp. This results in Bizarro condign extremely smart, surprising his teammates.^[52]

Bizarro and Artemis briefly go trapped in a dissimilar dimension but render to Earth. Bizarro becomes the ruler of Hell later on killing Trigon, and plans to exist the Ruler of Hell to brand sure Earth is not in danger earlier saying goodbye to Jason Todd and Artemis.^[53]

Powers and abilities [edit]

Generally, Bizarro's powers of strength, invulnerability, and supersonic flight are identical to Superman's with the nearly substantial difference existence that sure powers are reversed.

• "Freeze vision" unleashes twin beams of subzero lite from his eyes which instantaneously freezes annihilation or anyone on contact; inducing frostbite and even hypothermia.
• "Flame breath" allows him to breathe a superheated napalm-similar substance which causes astringent burns with minimal contact and even cook steel at maximum intensity.
• "Vacuum jiff" instead of super jiff
• "Bizarro scope vision" which allows Bizarro to see a "brusk distance behind his caput" rather than a "long altitude in front of his head"
• "Bizarro microscopic vision" which makes objects "actually smaller to everyone" rather than merely "announced to be bigger to merely the user"
• "Bizarro X-ray vision" which allows Bizarro to "but see through pb" rather than the ability to "see through anything except atomic number 82"
• "Scope 10-ray vision" which acquired Bizarro to shoot ten-rays from his optics from "l miles around".^[54]

Similarly, Bizarro'south weaknesses are reversed: greenish Kryptonite has an empowering affect on him - healing his wounds and strengthening his body like to the furnishings of yellow sunlight on Superman - while only bluish Kryptonite (the reverse of green Kryptonite) affects Bizarro adversely in the same way that the onetime does with normal Kryptonians; causing him debilitating pain and diminishing his superpowers.

Other versions [edit]

All-Star Superman [edit]

The express serial All-Star Superman (January 2006 – Oct 2008) features Bizarro clones from an alternative universe called the "Underverse". They tin "infect" a normal homo and change them into a Bizarro clone past impact.^[55] One of these creatures is called "Zibarro" and is unique in that he has intellect and a roughly human appearance, traits which he considered to be sources of scorn from his beau Bizarros, resulting in a social isolation and loneliness he attempted to combat through artwork. When Superman was stranded in the Underverse, Zibarro helped him marshal the other Bizarros into building a rocketship that could send Kal-El home - Zibarro briefly considered taking Superman's place in the rocket, but realized he had no style of knowing he would observe any more acceptance amongst humans than his kinsmen. Earlier leaving, Superman advised him that rather than an aberration, Zibarro may exist evidence of increasing intelligence on the role of Bizarro-Abode, and encouraged him to keep up his work; Superman had a segment of Zibarro'south poetry preserved in Superlaminite within his Fortress of Solitude after returning habitation.^[56]

Amalgam Comics [edit]

An affiliation of Bizarro and Carnage, Bizarnage was made through a botched experiment at Project Cadmus in an attempt to replicate conflicting DNA. The white, goopy creature they created went crazy and began destroying everything and anybody in its manner. And then Spider-Boy arrived and battled him. Bizarnage wanted to be Spider-Boy, so he tried insanely to impale him, but was eventually defeated by getting tricked by Spider-Boy and sucked into an energy containment unit.

Superboy Comics [edit]

Bizarro appears in an issue of the tie-in comic for the late-1980s Superboy TV show, in which he is duped into acting as a student'due south fine art project.^[57] He besides was featured in an effect of the Superman Adventures comic series that tied into Superman: The Blithe Series in which he is brought to Earth by Lobo.^[58]

Adventure Comics [edit]

A Bizarro fantasy alike to the pre-Crisis version appears in the 1998 Adventure Comics fourscore-Page Giant by author Tom Peyer and artist Kevin O'Neill. At that place, Bizarro demands that a technician at a SETI-like installation broadcast his diary. Having no choice, the technician looks over the diary, which tells the story of the classic cube-shaped backwards Bizarro World. Superman accidentally finds himself in that location and, to allay people's fears of him, goes on a "constructive binge." The original Bizarro, a.yard.a. Bizarro #1, goes to Earth and attempts to stop Superman with the help of his friends. Nevertheless, when the other Bizarros effort to kill Superman, #1 stops them, saying that killing is the earthly thing that they must, in a higher place all, do the opposite of. Realizing that, however foreign the Bizarro World might exist, its inhabitants are safer and happier than those of Earth thanks to Bizarro #1's leadership, Superman apologizes. To show his sincerity he hides a re-create of the Bizarro Code where nobody will ever encounter it. The people hold a parade in #1's honour and with his loving wife Bizarro Lois #1 and their son, Bizarro Junior #1 at his side, Bizarro cries proverb "Me am ... happiest creature in universe." When the technician finishes reading the story, he sees Bizarro is gone and, horrified, asks – what if the journal itself is no exception to the Bizarro Code? Elsewhere, the truth is revealed; Bizarro, who has no home and no family and is held in contempt by Superman, weeps considering he is the nearly miserable creature in the universe.

Earth-Ii Pre-Crisis [edit]

In Superman Family #219, Superman encountered an animated lifeless version of his Flight Tiger change ego, which he used the previous issue to fabricate a criminal career in order to track downwards the supplier of Kryptonite to diverse crooks. Ascertaining that this Flight Tiger was an enlarged 3-dimensional version of a picture drawn of him in the Daily Star, Superman ensnared this Tiger in a trap whereby the demented indistinguishable was crippled by Kryptonite radiation. Superman realized that this Flying Tiger not simply had his abilities only also his weaknesses, and afterward defeating him he tracked down his creator, Funny Face. Although Funny Face transformed Lois Lane Kent into a 2-dimensional drawing, as he had washed years earlier, Superman was able to restore her to normal and transform the fake Flying Tiger back into a cartoon on a page.

Trinity [edit]

In the 2004 graphic novel mini-series Trinity by Matt Wagner, Bizarro is a genetic clone of Superman that is the result of Luthorcorp's "Projection Replica". The beast was and then sealed away in the frozen wasteland of Antarctica, encased within ice, until it was released past Ra's al Ghul, who used him every bit a pawn in his programme to utilize nuclear warheads to decimate Gotham besides as destroy a cluster of communication satellites, causing a major communications blackout, the stop goal of his mission existence to incite anarchy and purge the Earth of the "cancer" that is civilization. Later on he is injured by Batman's use of a accommodate of armour and solar pulse lasers, Bizarro'due south hand is removed by Superman's rut vision earlier his template throws him into a volcano. This Bizarro is presumably deceased, yet, his manus is turned into ruby-red kryptonite at the lesser of the ocean.^[59]

Adventures of Superman [edit]

A story in the out-of-continuity digital-first album comic book Adventures of Superman from 2013 by Christos Cuff and Eduardo Francisco reveals that Bizarro'due south penchant for opposites comes as a event of his imperfectly formed brain, a discovery which allows Superman and Professor Hamilton to make him talk and think similar a regular person and pursue his want to exist heroic.^[60]

Bizarro Comics [edit]

The 2002 graphic novel Bizarro Comics is an anthology of short comics by artists of the contained scene handling various DC Comics characters in humorous tales set outside of any continuity. All the stories are bookended by Bizarro Wars, a comic written by Chris Duffy with art past Stephen DeStefano in which Mxyzptlk seeks the assistance of Superman to save the fifth dimension from a cosmic conqueror named "A", just ends up with Bizarro (here introduced every bit a new character that neither Superman nor Mxyzptlk formerly knew of) instead. The other comics in the volume (including i curt Bizarro World story written by Bizarro creator Alvin Schwartz) are presented as creations of the deranged listen of Bizarro himself.^[61] The 2005 follow-up anthology Bizarro World features the graphic symbol less centrally, but includes an introductory story in which the character runs an amusement park.^[62]

Red Son [edit]

In Superman: Red Son, Lex Luthor chose to create his own version of Superman through cloning to combat and overcome the original. Luthor decided to crash Sputnik into Metropolis which will bring Superman to the event and hopefully allow Luthor to assemble genetic material of Superman. Equally planned, Superman arrived in time to stop the deadly crash. The United States government claims the probe and Luthor obtained the samples he needs in social club to create his copy which proves to be defective and was named "Superman 2." Luthor sent Superman ii off to appoint Superman who was attending a state party which Wonder Woman was also attending. Superman 2 clashed with Superman over the English Channel and the two fight. Their battle was and so ambitious information technology accidentally acquired an American nuclear missile to launch. Superman ii proves himself to exist a true genetic descendant of Superman equally he sacrificed himself to save millions from the nuclear explosion.

World 2 [edit]

On Globe 2 equally function of The New 52, Darkseid and Steppenwolf created a clone of Superman which they dub Brutaal.^[63] After being snapped out of Darkseid's command by his wife Lois Lane (who in this reality inhabits the wind-manipulating robot torso known as Red Tornado), Superman and Ruby-red Tornado leave for the Kent Family'due south farm.^[64] After a protracted battle with World 2'southward superheroes, in particular Green Lantern (Alan Scott) and a younger Kryptonian named Val-Zod, he is revealed to be scaling and decomposing. Realizing he is a Bizarro-type clone and that his ability is waning, the Superman clone is destroyed by Lois using a cyclone blast from her paw.^[65]

Earth 29 [edit]

On Earth 29 that is filled with Bizarros, Bizarro is a member of the Unjustice League of America. Afterward the Unjustice League "saved" Metropolis from their world's Metallo, Superman arrived on Earth 29 and briefly fought Bizarro until it was interrupted past Metallo. Doomsday subsequently appeared on Earth 29 and Bizarro destroyed it upon seeing it as a threat. Though this acquired Bizarro to go infected and transform into Doomzarro who started to infect his world. Though Bizarro's will was strong enough to overcome Doomsday and flew into the lord's day to become the infection out of him. Surviving the sunday, Bizarro returned to his Earth to win Lois Lane's "hate".^[66]

Bizarro of Earth 29 afterwards formed the Terribles consisting of Mister Terrible (a Bizarro version of Mister Terrific), Disposable Man (a Bizarro version of Plastic Human being), Change-O-Shape-O (a Bizarro version of Metamorpho), and Figment Daughter (a Bizarro version of Phantom Daughter) in his plot to destroy Prime number World'south technology through fourth dimension travel.^[67]

Bizarro of World 29 and the Terribles are among the villains recruited by Lex Luthor to join the Legion of Doom in an all-out war with the Justice League.^[68]

Justice [edit]

In Justice, Bizarro was created by Lex Luthor, in an endeavour to apply early cloning engineering science to find a means to impale Superman. The results were less than perfect. Once fashioned, fifty-fifty Luthor was incapable of controlling Superman's would-exist duplicate. He is shown to have freeze vision, rut jiff, and loves creating devastation, simply isn't equally intelligent as Superman and is a member of the Legion of Doom. He's based on the Silvery Age version of Bizarro.

Miscellaneous versions [edit]

Several culling universe versions of the character exist: A Legends of the Dead Earth story set in the far future features a sometime media-star Bizarro who owns an amusement park and who fights against his own obsolescence.^[69] The Elseworlds one-shot The Superman Monster (1999), substantially a Frankenstein pastiche, features a monstrous copy of Bizarro created by a Viktor Luthor based on the remains of the baby Kal-El, who died upon arrival.^[70] In the limited serial JLA: The Nail, having found Kal-El's ship (Kal-El himself was taken in by an Amish family years ago), Lex Luthor uses DNA samples to create Bizarro-like duplicates, which he disguises as the "Liberator" robots to hunt downwards the supposedly rogue metahumans.^[71] While the Liberators possess Superman'south powers in terms of strength and speed, their genetic construction proves to be unstable, to the point that they collapse later sustaining fifty-fifty minor damage in combat with metahuman foes; the League detect in the final boxing that the "Liberators" relied on stealth and superior numbers to overwhelm their captives as they could never take won in prolonged gainsay.

Injustice: Gods Among Us [edit]

In the prequel comic to the video game, Lex Luthor comes up with the idea of creating a clone of Superman that can combat the corrupt Human being of Steel. Nevertheless, the clone escapes earlier the procedure can exist completed, resulting in the clone having grey skin and diminished mental capacity. The clone travels to Federal republic of germany where he meets a human who confuses information technology with Superman, making the clone presume this is his identity. Giving the clone a Superman suit with the S backwards, the clone goes on to try to found peace – simply considering he lacks mutual sense and a basic agreement of human ways, he inadvertently wreaks havoc and kills Atmospheric condition Wizard and Heatwave. The Trickster is able to have reward of the clone'southward mental limitation to convince him they are friends and the "imposter" Superman is his enemy. The clone becomes known to the Regime, with Superman meeting him as Solomon Grundy is being captured. Xanthous Lantern gives him the proper noun 'Bizarro' since he proves to be an imperfect clone of Superman. Bizarro gets abroad before they can discover his origin. Trickster has difficulty keeping the clone in check, every bit the clone ends up killing an entire restaurant of civilians when he misunderstands Trickster'south instructions.

Television [edit]

Alive activeness [edit]

• Bizarro appears in vii episodes of the Superboy TV serial which ran from 1988 to 1992, portrayed by Barry Meyers. This Bizarro is most like the original Silvery-Age Bizarro, in that he was non truly villainous, but lashed out at society considering him a dangerous freak (indeed, Superboy often expressed his reluctance to attack his "blood brother" every bit they were of like powers). He was created when an experimental duplicating ray was overcharged during a lightning storm and Superboy was accidentally exposed to it. When Superboy and Professor Peterson (the ray's inventor) gasp at what has been created, Superboy remarks "Information technology is bizarre", to which the creation responds "Me Bizarro", and so aptly named, and so ran away to the outside world. While in a shopping center, Bizarro manages to cause a ruckus past scaring civilians and getting in a fight with sheriff's deputies, and mistakingly believed this was that he was undisguised. He helps himself to civilian wearing apparel and calls himself "Kent Clark". He was in love with Lana Lang. Overreacting when a man gets fresh with Lana at a political party, he violently attacks him, and so kidnaps Lana and takes her to a furniture store, claiming he has found a domicile for them to settle in. Meanwhile, Professor Peterson warns Superboy that a Bizzaro-like flower he made during his first effort to indistinguishable a rose has but exploded, and the same will presently happen to Bizarro, only delayed by his much larger mass than the blossom. Superboy first attempts to stop Bizarro with kryptonite, simply Bizarro's DNA is too unlike to be affected. The inventor then duplicates Krptonite, which is used on Bizarro, only to preclude his explosion and granting him a slightly more stable personality. The inventor then realizes existence an antonym that the duplicated kryptonite healed rather than harm. In his second appearance, Lex Luthor tricks Bizarro into attacking Superboy in exchange for a girlfriend. Luthor creates such girlfriend by duplicating Lana Lang, but the "Bizarro Lana" convinces Bizarro she cannot dearest ane who aids wrongdoers, where Bizarro promptly defects to Superboy in thwarting Luthor. In his terminal episodes, Bizarro was made human past an experimental procedure that copied Superboy's brainwaves to his ain brain. After extensive plastic surgery, Bizarro was totally homo, with no super-powers, and took the name Bill Zarro. Just the brainwave transfer left Superboy in a severely weakened state, and he was captured by a terrorist called Chaos, who intended to throw him off the top of a skyscraper to impale him. Bizarro was forced to opposite the process to get his powers dorsum and save Superboy.

The phantom wraith apace discovered that it couldn't survive for long outside of the Phantom Zone, but it managed to survive by possessing humans. Unfortunately, a human host could just contain it for about 24 hours, before the host was destroyed and he had to find a new host. This went on for many months, until the phantom encountered Clark Kent, a Kryptonian, the just kind of body that could contain the phantom entity and requite it its own form. When the entity steals a portion of Clark's Kryptonian DNA, it becomes an evil version of him, possessing all of his strengths but with an inverted version of his ability to absorb energy, its peel taking on a fragmented appearance when exposed to direct sunlight as information technology absorbs power from green kryptonite. The entity is defeated in the Season 7 premiere "Bizarro", when Clark is able to trap it on the sunny side of Mars with aid from the Martian Manhunter. Information technology returns in "Gemini" (attributed past the producers to the solar eclipse caused in "Blue" blocking off sunlight long plenty for the clone to escape), taking an imprisoned Clark'southward place and falling in dear with Lana Lang. Later talking with Brainiac/Milton Fine to try and find a cure for its weakness to sunlight, it is destroyed by Blue Kryptonite in the episode "Persona", with Lana subjecting him to blue kryptonite overloading Bizarro only as it renders Clark powerless as Bizarro says "I love you lot" to Lana.
