An interesting psychological portrait of Lex Luthor emerges when Clark Kent is arrested for the murder of a reporter who was doing an investigative article on Luthor. Illuminating, but I don't care much for this ruthless killer Luthor, much preferring the complex tragic figure of the old storylines who began his tenure in the comics as Superboy's friend, and who never killed anyone - unless you could count his many attempts upon Superman. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

When Sands pitches the book to Ellen Fisher at Tinsel Town Press, she responds, “That sounds great! Could do better than Trump’s book.” The reference to Trump: The Art of the Deal doesn’t end there as Eric Peterson’s cover illustration directly references the cover to Tony Schwartz and Trump’s book, especially in the font choice and layout. This works particularly well, coming as it does three years after Marv Wolfman and John Byrne’s post-Crisis revamping of Lex Luthor as a wealthy businessman in 1986. While the story takes place in Superman’s world, the Man of Steel only makes a brief blur of an appearance. Most of the story is grounded, taking place in the human world even as Luthor’s power and influence begin to border on classic supervillainy. Hudnall builds on Luthor’s identity as a businessman when he depicts Sands getting the opportunity to ask Lex why he did what he did. Luthor responds, “Life is short. I could have become like my parents, had I chose to wallow in cheap emotion and self loathing, as did they. Instead I chose to become a god. I control human lives, instead of being controlled. I can destroy someone with a phone call. Which is why I cannot abide Superman! There is only room for one god on this planet!” Though no longer canon, Lex Luthor: The Unauthorized Biography offers an interesting take on Superman nemesis that feels all-too-relevant today. ( )
