Just Clark? Seems like a cut and dry lawsuit in Kent's favor

Why don't he just build a machine that makes him omnipotent?

Marvel characters are grounded in reality, yet they do it every year and everyone praises it. It should be even easier to do in a less grounded setting such as DC.

Bruce Wayne owns it and Superman doesn't have a job. Dumbo

That would mean his favorite investigative journalist Clark Kent would be out of a job.

Based Tommy

Because then he'd spend that much more time being Superman and Lex would never want that.

Why would Agent 47 buy a newspaper?

As part of a convoluted plan to off his new target

>Why doesn’t he just buy the Daily Planet?
He did.

>And then fire Superman?
He doesn't know Clark Kent is Superman. Also, he likes Clark Kent.

Superman work for the Daily Planet? It makes sense that goof of Kent had so many exclusives of the man of steel.

To blend in, user.

You think Lex could be happy with just outing Clark as Superman and getting him fired from his job for ALL the ethical violations?

He'd be triumphing over Superman AND showing him for the weak, flawed being he is.

Set aside that Lex literally can't be happy.

He was omnipotent once

Jesus

ONCE?

Yeah, Marvel truly is better. They do that shit every year.

Maybe but that story was actually good.

Because then Superman has 40+ more hours a week to kick his ass.

This makes me a lot angrier than it should

Uhh, sweetie, Superman doesn't work for the Daily Planet.

Lex likes Clark and hates Superman. It's not that hard to understand

Just fire everyone.

More lawsuits unless he can put forth a good reason to fire everyone.

Is he going to keep buying up whatever company Clark gets hired by to fire him?

Even if he knew, why would he deprive his ultimate enemy of his 9-5 job? That’s 8 hours a day he’s not spending foiling Lex’s plans.

What fuck are you talking about?
Superman doesn't work at the Planet. He doesn't work at all.

At will state. He can fire everyone for no reason.

And then, Perry uses the money Lex paid him to start up another Newspaper, and hires everyone Lex fires. Including Superman.

That's pretty much the only reason the major DC identities remain secret.

Luthor can't even comprehend that Superman would ever want to pretend to be a human, and Joker doesn't care who Batman is since as far as he's concerned Batman is his real self and the one the Joker is interested in.

This. That's the general attitude Lex and most of the world has on Superman.

They aren't scouring around trying to id him because as far as most believe he's Superman all the time and when he's not saving people he's chilling in his ice fortress. They don't know he has a secret identity to find.

EoC isn't the owner dumbass. Perry doesn't own The Planet.
