WHAT WE KNOW:
Cary Bates wrote a script concept to Superman 5 (that would actually replace Superman 3 & 4). In the script Brainiac discovers Earth and decides to add Metropolis to his bottled cities. Once added into his collection he discovers an anomaly, a Kryptonian. Brainiac shrikes himself down to investigate and ends up fighting Superman till he died, until Kal-El was reborn in another bottle city Kandor where he discovers his Kryptonian heritage. Kal-El escapes and defeats Brainiac.
