A superman kid who is free from moral shackles

Who stipulated that Superman must punish evil and promote good to save the planet?

Like the Saiyans, the child Brandon's race sends newborn babies to all civilized planets in the universe, and then waits for the babies to grow up to conquer those "lower" civilizations. They are confident that only Brandon is enough to conquer the earth.

Before Brandon discovered his superpowers, he was basically a good boy. Just when Brandon began to realize and explore the use of his superpowers, what he encountered was his father's crude education method, his mother's unprincipled spoiling, and the malicious ridicule of his classmates. His own superpower overturned all those who hindered him.

He didn't meet Clark's parents, nor did he meet a girl like Lois, and in the end even his only mother who gave hope would kill him with the metal on the spaceship. "Ning me to bear others, but not to bear me" has become his life creed.

And Brandon is only 12 years old, or just living on Earth for 12 years. He has discovered the hypocrisy and fragility of the human species, so let his strength speak for himself.

Tired of watching various stories about the superheroes of the Virgin White Lotus who saved the earth, it is also quite interesting to come to an evil superman.

Brightburn quotes

  • [first of the two post-credit scenes featuring The Big T]

    The Big T: The mainstream media as usual tries to sell you all a load of BULLSHIT!

    [second of the two post-credit scenes featuring The Big T]

    The Big T: Just like that half-man/half-sea creature capsizing fishing vessels in the South China Sea. Like what we were just talking about last week. Some kind of witch-woman who chokes people out with ropes and cords. They are all out there, they are all waiting, and they're all GONNA EAT A FUCKING BREAKFAST UNLESS WE GET OUR SHIT TOGETHER AND DO SOMETHING!

  • Merilee McNichol: Brandon, do you feel bad about what you did to Caitlyn?

    Brandon Breyer: [hesitating] You know, sometimes, when bad things happen to people, it's for a good reason.

    [Merilee is shocked and Brandon is emotionless]

    Merilee McNichol: Brandon, part of my job is to update the school and update your mom on your progress and let them know if you are showing any growth or remorse. And I, I can't take it easy on you because... you're my family.

    [Brandon remains unmoved]

    Merilee McNichol: Brandon, I'm giving you an opportunity to talk to me. I'm supposed to update the sheriff tomorrow and I have to be honest with him.

    [Brandon breathes heavily in anger]
