If Batman was real today, he'd go after the CEOs of companies, not gangsters. (lemmy.world)

what the story with Lex Luthor is about

I dunno, seems to end with a big fight and / or kryptonite almost as often anyway. Then again, doesn't that kinda undermine your original point?

I don't understand why that should be done, the character stops being popular, so good writers stop having interest in working on it, they try to revitalize it with different stories, etc. whether the loss of popularity precedes the bad stories or not is not something that I am in a position to determine. In any case it wasn't my point, I'm not a big fan of comics, I read it there and in movies/television, which if I continue a little more, it makes some sense
