Lex Luthor, smiling and co-operative to their faces but scheming behind their backs. Lex Luthor, who cloned Connor Kent against Superman's will. Lex Luthor, who created Bizarro and let him rampage, let his sins be blamed on Clark, had done the same.
But still. This is why he wasn't the face of anything. He was the strategist. The loyal right hand. Not the people-person. He had those skills somewhere, lost and decaying in the midst of all of the shit the world had thrown at him. ]
To know why we were chosen. To know the nature of our abilities and if there is a correlation between pre-existing powers and the ones given now. To determine how useful those abilities will be the next time disaster strikes. Whether we like it or not we seem to be the only ones who can make a difference here in a crisis. We're heroes. People are counting on us. And if someone decides to hurt a member of our ranks, I'll deal with them myself.
