Has anyone noticed that Superman's top enemies are literally designed to be a mimic of him? All of their abilities make them equal to Superman:

Lex Luthor: Rich genius who wears armor that gives him strength and flight and uses Kryptonite to weaken Superman, thereby putting them at the same level.

General Zod: A Kryptonian with Superman's exact power set.

Doomsday: A Kryptonian monster designed to kill Superman.

Bizarro: A warped clone of Superman's, whose powers mimic his with some alterations.

Metallo: A cyborg with a Kryptonite heart that allows him to go toe-to-toe with Superman.

In a sort of reverse of the Cinematic Universe I built before, this one focuses in on the individual heroes, and specifically focuses on the origins of the villains, in movies that are preferably closer in nature to Joker and less to the Sony Spider-Villain movies.

Phase One:

Brainiac – The tale of the AI Brainiac’s creation and his role in the destruction of Krypton.

Toyman – A movie about a disgruntled inventor turned toymaker who targets those who wronged him through their children.

Livewire – A movie about a social media influencer caught in a freak accident that makes her a literal part of the system that made her famous.

Parasite – A movie about a janitor who accidentally contacts alien waste that turns him into a monster that drains the life of any he touches.

Metallo – In order to defeat Superman, billionaire Lex Luthor has his bodyguard transformed into a cyborg.

General Zod – The Kryptonian AI Brainiac comes to Earth, unleashing an army of banished Kryptonian criminals to turn the planet into a New Krypton.

Phase Two:

Bizarro – Lex Luthor commissions the creation of a clone of Superman, only for something to go wrong.

Atomic Skull – In an effort to save his own life, a nuclear scientist accidentally turns himself into a being of pure nuclear energy.

Silver Banshee – The soul of an ancient witch is summoned back to the world of the living, as she seeks a body strong enough to contain her soul.

Mister Mxyzptlk – A prankster from another universe comes to a new world that doesn’t follow his world’s laws of magic.

Titano – A series of animal experiments results in the creation of a gorilla with incredible powers.

Ultra-Humanite – The enemies of Superman discover they have all been manipulated by a secret mastermind seeking to claim Superman’s body for himself.

Phase Three

Ultraman – In an alternate universe, an evil Superman conquers his Earth and sets his sights on worlds beyond his own.

Gog – In another universe, Superman witnesses the destruction of Smallville and everyone he knows and loves, driving him down a much darker path.

The Eradicator – On the remains of Krypton, the arrival of a young hero named Mon-El awakens an ancient Kryptonian security force.

Solaris – In the far future, Superman faces his ultimate fate at the hands of the cosmic being Solaris.

Anti-Monitor – Timelines crash together as multiple Supermen and his enemies must work together to save their worlds.

Doomsday – A monster created through centuries of torment arrives on Earth, destroying everything in its path.

Bloodsport – A former veteran takes it upon himself to eradicate Earth’s Kryptonians and everyone he views as an enemy of peace.

Cyborg Superman – An astronaut whose mind was preserved in a supercomputer creates a robotic body and presents himself as the resurrected Superman.

Manchester Black – An extremist challenges Superman’s successors, believing them all unworthy of his mantle.
