Superboy may have some hidden abilities or powers that he discovers while being kidnapped. These new powers could help him escape. For example, he might find out that he can phase through objects like a ghost. This would allow him to pass through the walls of his prison and get away from Lex Luthor. Another way is that he uses his super - speed to create a distraction and then make his escape while Lex is distracted.
One possible motive could be that Lex Luthor sees Superboy as a threat. Since Superboy has super - powers, Lex might want to study him or find a way to control him. Maybe he plans to use Superboy's powers for his own evil schemes. Another reason could be jealousy. Superboy is often seen as a hero, and Lex Luthor, being a villain, can't stand someone having so much power and adoration.
In this fanfiction, Lex Luthor might kidnap Superboy because he sees him as a threat to his long - term plans. Superboy's growing popularity and powers could potentially undermine Lex Luthor's schemes for world domination. So, Lex Luthor takes him to a secret location. However, Superboy discovers that he has some latent abilities he didn't know about before, which he uses to fight back against Lex Luthor and his minions.
Superboy could use his super - strength to break free from whatever physical restraints Lex Luthor has put on him. If he's chained up, he could simply snap the chains. Then he could use his super - speed to run out of the facility before Lex Luthor's guards could react.
One of the best Lex Luthor stories is 'Lex Luthor: Man of Steel'. In this story, it delves deep into his complex psyche. It shows his envy and hatred for Superman, not just as a being with superpowers but as a symbol of hope that he can't tolerate. Another great one is in 'Action Comics' where his devious plans to take down Superman are meticulously crafted, highlighting his brilliant yet twisted mind.
Well, Lex Luthor started out in a rather difficult situation. In his origin story, he was from a not - so - well - off family in a tough neighborhood. However, his genius was evident from a young age. He managed to build an empire through his wits and business acumen. But his encounter with Superman, a being with god - like powers, made him feel inferior. This sense of inferiority and his overarching ambition led him down the path of villainy. He began devising plans to take down Superman, believing that without Superman, he could be the most powerful and respected figure in the world.
Lex Luthor's age isn't fixed in the comics. It can change based on the creative direction of the writers and the era of the story. Generally, he's portrayed as an adult in his prime, often in his late 30s to 50s.
One great Lex Luthor OC fanfiction is 'The Luthor's New Ally'. It offers a fresh take on Lex's character by introducing an original character who challenges his views in unexpected ways.
