The most dangerous mind on earth has finally decided to stop being imprisoned and has returned to his usual business tactics which means using his intellect to force others to do his bidding.
This was actually a quite good story focusing on Lex Luthor, I have only one problem though, it makes his character regress. When Scott Lobdell reintroduced Luthor after the 5 years gap, he presented him as really threatening and powerful mind who only cared about demonstrating that he was the most intelligent man on earth and actually respected Superman as a rival.
On this issue however, we see the typical portrayal of Lex Luthor obsessed with Superman which makes him pretty vain at this point. I suppouse that Charles Soule had to follow the current direction imposed by DC but it just makes Luthor devolve.
Raymund Bermudez' art is really good, not especially distinctive but it's a pretty polished job.
This would have been a quite good issue, if it was about the pre-New 52 Luthor. I just feel that the current depiction makes the character go backwards.
