- Lex_Luthor abstract "Alexander Joseph "Lex" Luthor is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, and is the archenemy of Superman. Lex Luthor was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and first appeared in Action Comics #23 (April 1940). The character is a power-mad American billionaire, business magnate, gifted scientist, inventor, philanthropist to the city of Metropolis, and one of the most intelligent people in the world. A charismatic and well-known public figure, he is intent on killing alien superhero Superman, who Lex Luthor views as an obstacle in his megalomaniacal plans and as a threat to the very existence of humanity. Given Lex's high status as a supervillain, he also comes into conflict with Batman and other superheroes in the DC Universe.The character has traditionally lacked superpowers or a dual identity and typically appears with a bald head. He periodically wears his Warsuit, a high-tech battle suit giving him enhanced strength, flight, and advanced weaponry, among other capabilities. Lex Luthor is the owner of a corporation called LexCorp, with Mercy Graves as his personal assistant and bodyguard. Lex has carefully crafted his public persona in order to avoid suspicion and arrest. He is well known for his philanthropy, donating vast sums of money to Metropolis over the years, funding parks, foundations, and charities.Although the character is normally portrayed as a bald, charismatic business magnate, Lex Luthor was originally depicted as a recluse with a full head of red hair who, in the vein of pulp novels, wreaks havoc on the world with his futuristic weaponry. The character later became hairless as the result of an artist's mistake. A 1960 story by Jerry Siegel expanded upon Luthor's origin and motives, revealing him to be a childhood friend of Superman who lost his hair when a fire destroyed his laboratory, a fire which Lex blamed on Superboy, who was attempting to save Lex from a lifeform Luthor had created in vitro that was threatening to kill Luthor. In current continuity, Luthor's hatred for Superman stems from viewing him as a rival for the status of the most powerful man in Metropolis.Following the 1985 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths, the character was re-imagined as a Machiavellian white-collar criminal, even briefly serving as President of the United States. In recent years, various writers have revived Luthor's roots as a scientific genius.The character was ranked 4th on IGN's list of the Top 100 Comic Book Villains of All Time and as the 8th Greatest Villain by Wizard on its 100 Greatest Villains of All Time list. Luthor is also described as a "megavillain" by comic book critic Peter Sanderson, one of a few genre-crossing villains whose adventures take place "in a world in which the ordinary laws of nature are slightly suspended."".
