Well - Brainiac was Sup’s Nemisis.
Braniac 5 was supposedly 5th generation removed but a good guy with Brainiac 2 making the break. Overall Supergirl has been ok - if they just took out the Social stuff and left it as a good sci-fi/hero thing it’d be fine ... but they Gotta jiggle the knob on things.
Eisenberg has been terrible. It might have worked on a Superboy movie, but not Superman.
Lex has had a couple iterations in the comics. Buff but smart con-man early, slightly overweight king-pin type in the late 80s...that one eventually became president I think...but was still pretty stout.
I'm out of touch. I haven't read a comic since "Death of Superman" which coincidentally I bought because that piece of human garbage named "Bill Clinton" was elected. It just fit the mood that Superman would "die" at that time.
I only remember four or five of his nemesis without someone reminding me of others.

I watched a bit of it when it first came out, and you are right. It wouldn't have been bad if they had just stopped the constant politically correct crap. I could even put up with Jimmy Olsen being black, but they just wouldn't stop, so I said screw it.

Exactly. Eisenberg was a terrible choice for Lex Luther. It's hard to imagine them picking someone worse for the role.
He might make a pretty good "Mr Mxyzptlk" though. :)

I had probably stopped buying them by that time. I only recall the buff but smart genius.
Someone like Yul Brenner would have been perfect.
