The Family That Slays Together: Difference between revisions

* The [[Lex Luthor|Luthors]] of ''[[Smallville]]''. Patriarch [[Magnificent Bastard|Lionel Luthor]] is a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] version of the [[Rags to Riches]] story, and tries to raise his son, [[Manipulative Bastard|Lex]], to be every bit as devious, cunning, and unethical. Lex in turn mentors his illegitimate sister, {{spoiler|Tess Mercer}}, who he successfully transforms into [[The Baroness]]. And that's without taking into account their bastard brother, Lucas, who managed to become a sociopath even without daddy's involvement, or Lex's numerous clones, who cover the board from [[Enfante Terrible]] (Lx-15) to [[Axe Crazy]] [[Evil Old Folks]] (Lx-3). In the [[Alternate Universe]] of Earth-2, the family stayed together, and by adding adoptive son [[Superman|Clark]] [[Evil Twin|"Ultraman"]] Luthor to the family, transformed LuthorCorp into a [[Mega Corp]] version of [[The Empire]].
