Lex, you suck. :[

[espanolbot]

Pull his legs off. :) Admittedly Conner wouldn't do it, but Lex should appreciate the irony.

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

Can someone tell me at what point writers started thinking "The more evil someone is, the more depth they have?"

Because yeah, I ain't seeing it.

Betty Crocker disapproves of this nonsense fest!

[teamrodent]

That is NO way to inherit cake recipes! >(

[aeolos_sakya]

I'd better get me a copy to read this completely, cause this just looks ridiculous

[jarodrussell]

I'm confused, why would anyone want to get out the wheelchair? Isn't being crippled the best thing that could ever happen to someone? And isn't it wrong for Lex to cure just one person, and not everyone?

[icon_uk]

"Luthor as malevolent shit wo plays games with his own family" isn't nearly as interesting as "Luthor as deeply flawed man (With an almost excusable hatred of Superman)"

Even the Silver Age had Luthor actually retain feelings for Lena, to the extent of going to great lengths to make sure shenewver knew about him.

[espanolbot]

Weird, Lena is dressed identically to Stephanie Brown why back when. *laughs*

[thanekos]

the answer to Superman's " Where's the cancer cure, Lex? ", everyone.

[aulayan]

*sigh* I like the Luthor from the monologue of the mini series Azzarello wrote far more. That's my ideal Luthor. Not this. This is Cartoonish super evil. I mean even Doctor Doom would go "Really? That's too much."

[mullon]

I'm torn. On the one hand I like mindlessly dickish Luthor, on the other hand this feels contrived and petty even for him.

[kainnived.livejournal.com]

Didn't Lex have a daughter back around the turn of the century? Whatever happened to her?

[schala_kid]

I liked it when Luthor really cared about people, his sister and his daughter above all (and Kon in his own twisted way).

This Luthor is just...Blah

[auggie18]

Hey, at least this got Kon to drop his whole checklist thing. And we got to see him on the cutest world tour ever. I need to icon him holding Krypto's t-rex bitten cape and pouting. "We almost got eaten!"

[galateus]

Why would Lex do this? Dickery to prove a stupid point is classic Lex, but he's burning bridges with a superpowered kid when he could be wheedling. He should be planting *more* doubt in Conner's brain so that he's more easily manipulated in the future.

[jlroberson]

And then he made her a birthday cake. Forty of them, actually. And then he jumped on one after the other, giggling.

[neuhallidae]

::eyeroll:: Because clearly if Luthor doesn't do something kitten-eating-level at least once every story arc he's in lately, people will just totally up and forget he's one of the big villains.

[silverzeo]

So this is Lex's new "official" lowest deed, since he did sold his infant daughter to f***ing Braniac!

[cmdr_zoom]

"Lex giveth, and Lex taketh away."

Indulging that God complex again, I see.

[phoeixmessiah]

so his sis stays like a veggie and paralyzed?

[team_mummy]

loving the painterly style here!
PS: Lex, what a jerk. Geez.

[irrelevant]

Wow, Lex. Way to be an asshole. I hope your son calls up his friendly neighborhood telepath to frisk your brain and Clark to hold you down, then kicks your butt all over creation.

Also, Johns? You've gone so far past tasteless, I don't even know. I thought you'd reached your nadir, but... yeah. Nice one. And I had such hopes for this series.

Oh well, Manapul's art is gorgeous, at least.

[bluepard]

This does seem unusually, well, stupid of Luthor. Maybe with Superman gone, his obsession to fuck with someone has transferred to Superboy?

[zordboy]

"And the secret stays with me until Superman is dead."

"... yeah, nice try baldy. You realise I have about five telepaths on speed-dial, right?"

"..."

"And with a phone call to the Watchtower or Titans Tower, I could have four or five of the smartest chemists and most intelligent scientists on the planet here within thirty seconds?"

"..."

"And you also realise I'd have absolutely no qualms with letting said telepaths rip the secret out of your head, even if it causes you permanent irreversable brain damage, 'cause hey, that'd probably be an improvement, right?"

"... I really didn't think this through."

"No, baldy. You really didn't. Krypto, go fetch me a Martian."

[thanekos]

seems a bit too quick for Lexdickery, really.

I'd've expected one needle, working cure... that craps out after 15-30 days (probably via nanites) with a " NNNG "/"Now you see what I can do, the full version comes only when THAT DAMNED ALIEN is dead "
