Jesse Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor is the most controversial version of the character. Critics said he was playing more of a Riddler or Joker type while Snyder fans say that he was a fresh new take on the character, with influence from Superman: Birthright. We dive into all the different comic book inspirations for the character, debate how much of Superman Birthright is in the characterization, and discuss that if Eisenberg’s Lex is faithful, why did he get the reception he got? Welcome to part one of a special trilogy we call- SuperVILLAIN Stuff You Should Know- covering three major villains of the DC/Snyderverse. Stay tuned to find out who's next.
