    Killing Luthor won't solve anything. He'll just find some way to come back to life, like the best supervillains always do.

    You know there's only one real solution to the Luthor problem, Superman. The question is, are you man enough to do it.

        Except Gordon has a justifiable excuse. What did Luthor do to anyone in Turpin's family?

    He did, but he found he sort of liked the killing and so became a tyrant.

    because just lasering people you think are evil without proving it first is a good way to lose your humanity
    lex luthor is an upstanding citizen and a bedrock of metropolis economy who owns the cops and the courts there

    imagine the rest of the world reacting to superman vaporizing what they see as superman committing random murder for no reason, then justifying it later with "he was secretly evil, okay?"
    at that point, they would launch a nuke at him

      Supes could probably figure out a way to kill Luthor and make it look like an accident

    Because he'd have become a fugitive for murder.

    Frick off, Snyder. Only midwits who don't even read comics like your movies.

    If you kill your enemies, they win. Especially in comics where killing them just means they'll come back but now with demonic powers or time travel powers or whatever, or you'll literally turn into them like the Kekman who Keks.

    Because status quo is king in comics, which is why they suck, and the only good stories are what ifs/elseworlds.

    Kill Luthor
    >The state will try to charge him for murder (and yes they will be that stupid)
    >Destabilize the economy on Metropolis as he has illegally has a monopoly on most businesses causing more issue for the average citizens
    >Create a mass power vacuum in the villain hierarchy since he was the leader of multiple villain association resulting a villain civil war that will kill more people

    Unlike Joker, Lex actually does do some legit good acts even if just for show. Such as donations to charity and jobs. Lot of these things would end if he was dead.

    Luthor is not actually that much worse than most of the potentates and world leaders we have irl. If anything he's better than them as he's pragmatic enough, other than Suicide Slum he turned Metropolis into a shiny modern major city and pretty much a world capital.
    In his own way he helps mankind forward by creating super tech, even if it's for his own benefit. That bit in the Doomsday animated movie where he casually designs a cure for cancer while Kal fails at it? He turns it into a lifelong treatment to squeeze more money from it, but that's still better than having no treatment at all.
    He's a criminal but he's got some standards, he won't kill hundreds for lawls and he's an important piece of global economics.

      He will kill hundreds because of his ego though. His fatal flaw is he would do so much good if he got over himself

        As I said, not that different from the world leaders we already have, and we live with them more or less fine.

    That would be a vulgar display of his power.
