    Lex Luthor

    Character » Lex Luthor appears in 4366 issues.

    Lex Luthor, Superman's arch-nemesis, is one of the most brilliant men alive, whose hatred of "interfering aliens" pushes him down the path of a sociopath. Known for his "ends justifies the means" approach to life, his single-minded and often brutal focus puts him at odds with The Man of Steel. Luthor is arguably DC Comics' most iconic villain.

    Which version of Lex Luthor is the best?
    1)Mad Scientist
    2)Ruthless Businessman
    3)Greatest criminal mastermind (movie version)
    4)other
    For me, I liked the ruthless businessman version. His public image was that of a great man but behind the scenes he was a tyrant.

    I must say the All-Star version is the best. Not even Morrison himself can replicate his greatness in that book

    @ultraheroix:

    1. Lex Luthor: Man of Steel is the best for me!
    2. Al-Star is also very good.

    The first one should become a movie! (Superman: The Man of Steel)
