This was an arc that had me feel very conflicted and in the end disappointed me. Johns crafted some very interesting prospects for Lex: him becoming Superman and having been recognized by Apokolips as their would-be savior in Darseid's absence. Unfortunately he gives up the latter to Superman easily (he doesn't do anything about it either, just throws some cliches about coming back to help Apokolips to grow hope, something he doesn't do afterwards) for a reason I don't buy, that wasn't something Lex would do, and this whole artificial conflict makes him give up the Superman mantle, too. All so Snyder can pull his stupid aPeX lEx bullshit. The story isn't bad in itself but it had so much potential and knowing what it was sacrificed for makes more
