Alexander "Lex" Joseph Luthor is a supervillain in American comic books published by DC Comics. Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, he made his first appearance in Action Comics #23 (published on February 22, 1940, with a cover date of April that same year). Since then, he has remained the ultimate nemesis of Superman, embodying the hero's polar opposite in every way. While Superman represents hope and selflessness, Luthor personifies unchecked ambition and the supremacy of human intellect over the superhuman.
