In recent Superman and Justice League storylines, courtesy of Geoff Johns, Dan Jurgens and Scott Snyder, we saw Lex Luthor becoming the Superman of Metropolis. A genuine attempt at heroics that was eventually flawed and saw him turn back into the scorpion on the frog's back. Well, in today's Batman #120, he is on the bat's back instead…

Batman #120

With a brand new look for Lex Luthor, ditching the Superman S shield for the bat-signal he is activating.

The series has found Bruce Wayne discovering that Batman Inc, the international Batman effort funded by Wayne Enterprises, has been taken over by Lex Luthor once the money ran out. And it turns out he's been spending even more money to make himself a member as well. Just, this is Lex Luthor, so there is no way he is going to hide his face. And with next issue's cover, this new look might be sticking around for a little. With Damian Wayne getting in the Helbat suit, there's a lot of this about right now.
