Line 1:
{{tropework}}
* How does everyone live so ridiculously long at the end? I understand later generations living longer, but Luthor himself lived for over ''2000 years''.
** I chalk it up to Luthor creating a [[Super Serum]] that grants near immortality, which he kept for himself and Lois.
*** Given that liberal estimates of medical technology's progress think we may achieve ''actual'' immortality (at least from ageing et all) within ''a couple generations'', Luthopia or not, this troper finds the fact that he didn't just straight-up live until the end to be more bothersome, unless of course he calculated long ago that this would somehow go against his plans for the world and was satisfied enough with what he'd lived through already.
* What was up with Batman? Awesomeness of his hat aside, this Batman drank, bombed museums with people in them yet refused to kill Superman, and acted very ASBAR-ish. Sure, it's a different Batman, but he's more like one of his regular villains than our normal "criminals are a superstitious and cowardly lot" Batman.
** Simple: this Batman isn't Bruce Wayne.
Line 40:
** Lex DID give the tech to Batman. He was using Batman as another pawn to kill of Superman, and so was giving him the Red Sun tech to give him the advantage. But after it didn't work, Luthor simply moved on. He's Lex Luthor, he's never reused a trick in the comics before, why would you think he'd try it this time?
