In honor of the Lex Zuckerberg unveiling, let's have a goodLex storytime by Paul Cornell and Pete Woods.
Background:
During the Blackest Night event, each of the seven lantern colors deputized an inhabitant of Earth to help fight Nekron. Lex Luthor got the orange ring of greed and felt what it was like to have godlike power, something he had pursued heavily in 52 when Superman seemingly vanished for one year.
Plus JLU did Lexiac around then.

damn Lois
>>77972356
Are you implying they fucked?
>>77972439
>>77972433
Pretty sure that object and that person did.
>>77972448
>>77972459
>>77972463
>>77972239
This is interesting, thanks OP. It's one of the few blackest night related books I've yet to get to.
>>77972469
>>77972474
>>77972473
Glad then because this thing is so inspired and comes from a time when it seemed like DC really focused on pinning Luthor's most compelling characteristics down.
>>77972491
>>77972492
>>77972287
>>77972296
>>77972305
For second I was confused why would Lois eat with Luthor, let alone be cool with him killing some guy.
Then I remembered she's robot.
I'm not Superfag and it shows.
>>77972495
>the balls to use Mr. Mind
>>77972239
I really need to track down the latter half of these issues. I remember his meetings with Death, Grodd and his battle spoon, and I think Vandal Savage and the Secret Six.
>>77972324
Looking good, Mera.
>>77972504
>>77972501
>I'm not Superfag and it shows.
I recommend reading Up, Up, and Away which is a six issue arc running through Superman and Action Comics from 2006ish. It starts in Superman #650
>>77972543
>>77972507
>I remember his meetings with Death
that's another book I have to get to soon. I think I'll track it down after this storytime is finished

Thanks for recommending.

>finally we enter my own choice of fantasys
>the one where i fuck mr mind in the anus for hours on end
>>77972469
Statues are Trinity?
>>77972724
I assumed so.
Is 4chan acting shitty for anyone else?
>>77972463
>those credits
Ungah-Bungah/10
>>77972602
i'm confused, what's luthor trying to say here?
>>77972860
With Anti-Bob Marley? I guess that he's sheriff who's shooting people, not other way around.
>>77972348
Oh Lex
>>77972860
"I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy" - lyric from a Bob Marley song
he shot the deputy, and he doesn't want the sheriff shot?

>>77972239
It's a really good run, especially in comparison to what's being down nowadays. Especially the way things were tied in, in a very big picture fashion (Savage, Grodd, etc.) but the ultimate denouementrespecting the PZ 'child' and what it did to Lex was a cheat/plot crutch, none the less, great that you are story timing it - people should read it and make up their own minds, it's really very clever.
You should do the entire series (which means the Doomday books) as well.
>Plus JLU did Lexiac around then.
Ah, the Flash - fulcrum of the DC multiverse in every good adaption.

Hey, at least they're the better of the Big Two.
>>77973421
here's your response.
Have you considered, maybe, just maybe, that if you don't like the content of a thread, that you...I don't know....DON'T HAVE TO READ IT.
Go do something you enjoy, you don't have to drag the rest of us down.

The Black Ring is basically Luthor out-smugging most every big name villain in the DCU.

how have i never heard of this character black alice
>>77974162
>>77974163
Because she's in Secret Six and never moves away from that book?
>>77974166
>>77974163
Black Alice has some good stuff. Think she's first in Day of Vengeance? Don't know if she was ever in Vertigo?
>>77974180
>>77974174
i just googled her shes pretty cool y is she so under used she would fit in well in the justice league dark
>>77972324
Why is Mera squatting?
>>77974185
>>77974180
she appears in like nothing

>>77974368
Still here, OP?
>>77974440 op where r u
>>77974039
Fate's helmet and Zatanna's hat?
>>77974186
Gail Simone created her and nobody is allowed to play with Black Alice.
>>77974187
How else would we see what she brings to Aquaman's bed every night?
>>77974180
Oh, so THATS where that Joker Chekem crop comes from.
>>77974368
And just like that Luthor died forever
I never really got the appeal of this run. It seemed to rely too heavily on guest stars as opposed to standing on it's own.
waiting for op bump
>>77974368
RIP OP
>>77972636
>that pun

Yeah...
We are going to need that missing issue.
Stupid crossovers.
>>77972411
He made his waifu, thats the lex we need
>>77973560
It always seemed strange to me that there are atheists in a comic book universe, where different pantheons of Gods are well known.
>>77976354
Has Lex always been in love with Lois?
I fucking hate how this whole storyline got mucked up by the Doomsday shit towards the end.
>>77974368
So, I guess Larfleeze stole OP.

Hahaha 4th wall FUCK YOU.
Seeing how OP is clearly dead, can someone give me a run down on what happens in the rest of the arc?
>>77972407
pretty much ex machina desu
>>77973588
Doesn't Wally the God-boy from Super-girl also have a bowler hat? Wow, who knew the Bowler hat was the hat of God!
Bump for later
>>77981297
Robolois starts working for Brainiac, Brainiac shows up and is revealed he's pulling Lex's strings, Lex destroys Phantom Zone Child and gains its power, Lex tries to mindfuck Superman, makes everyone in universe feel good but since he's dick, he uses all power trying to kill Superman, and dies on end.
