Lex Luthor is an super intelligent, powerful supervillain who is considered to be Superman's arch-nemesis. The bald, gentleman dressed meglomaniac has an insatiable thirst for power and serves as the incredibly wealthy head of Luthorcorp, the successor of his deceased and disgraced father Lionel Luthor. His well balanced strength and unparalled brain are the result of enhancement from long lost precious Krptonite stones flanding down in the cornfields surrounding Jonathen and Martha Kent's farm estate in the Luthor family's hometown of Smallville, Kansas.
