Genius businessman, inventor, and scientist, Lex Luthor sees himself as humanity’s true savior…even if he has to threaten society to save it.

The only thing that exceeds Lex Luthor’s genius is his arrogance and uncompromising hatred for Superman. Viewing him as an alien menace that threatens Earth, not to mention being an affront to ‘mere humans’ such as himself, Lex directs his unrivaled scientific intellect and vast financial resources towards thwarting Superman. Lex Luthor could have been one of Earth’s greatest champions —  if not for his single-minded envy and supreme arrogance.
