Why are so many of you overly concerned with how "tough" he looks?



Bc he is trying to look tough in that photo.

Lex also had a smoothness to him, swagger if you will, that I dont think Facebook has.

Actually the cartoons and animated shows made him look bigger than he was (at least before he took the venom steroid in The World's Finest storyline). Some artist made him look "thicker" than other throughout the ages. But I don't recall him being near as big and "muscled up" in the comics as he was in the animated world, especially the New 52 universe.


Luthor was thick or heavy set from his origin in the Golden Age throughout the Silver, Bronze, and Post-Crisis ages. It's only recently that they've trimmed him down. Hollywood has always given us Luthors that are thinner (and sometimes hairier) than the Luthors that were in the comics.

I got a good feeling about his portrayal of Lex. Seems like this is younger version, so I dont have an issue with his size. I can see him being pretty psychotic, witty, and manipulative while keeping it cool. Im excited to see how it all turns out.

Eisenberg is in his early 30's, so he's not out of the range of the traditional Luthor.

Especially since this is supposed to be Superman at the start of his career.

If you just saw a picture of Lex and Superman standing next to one another, and you have no other knowledge of the two characters, you should say that you're pretty confident Luthor can kick his arse. Sure he can't, but Luthor needs to put off the intimidating presence and demeanor that make you think he can.


lol
What complete bullshite. Maybe this is how it should be in cartoons.
