Lex Luthor is physically an ordinary human and has no natural superpowers, but has above-average intelligence, a genius for inventions and a high command of science and technology. Given his high profile as a supervillain, however, he has often come into conflict with Batman and other superheroes in the DC Universe. He wishes to rid the world of Superman, ostensibly because he views Superman as a threat to humanity, but in reality envies Superman's popularity and influence. Since the late 1980s, he has more often been portrayed as the power-mad CEO of LexCorp. Lex Luthor was originally depicted as a narcissistic and egotistical mad scientist from the 1960s to the early 1980s. He has since endured as the archnemesis of Superman.
