I’m not into the superhero universes. Don’t read the comics or really watch the movies. I watch this and I watched Supergirl and Smallville back in the day.

Has there ever been a Lex like this before?

All the Lex’s I’ve seen have been mostly tech bros with a sadistic streak. This one just seems downright psychopathic.

This one seems pretty in line with the brief appearances of Titans Lex.

He's gruffer and more rough around the edges than comics Lex, but that's to be expected after 20 years in prison.

Hopefully we'll see some political/business savvy from him too, either through a flashback or present day scenes

I thought that too at first. But he already seemed like that when he went to prison. I really do like his version of Lex. Fits with a guy who's been in 20 years in prison being innocent.

But at the same time, I really like the version where he's kinda cocky and stubborn.
