Lex Luthor has an Armor Problem

It's funny that baldness is so important to Lex Luthor's ''Brand'' that, even tho' he essentially performs risky tasks with high-tech armor, he rarely, if ever, wears a helmet. That's the most unbelievable part of that character's narrative to me.

Can you imagine if Tony Stark, as Iron-Man did the same thing?
Fans would most certainly call out that improbability immediately.

UPDATE 2024: Lex is STILL using his classic, helmet-less armor in the recent comic
“JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. GODZILLA VS. KONG” #7 


 Go figure.



One of my posts about a different kind of armor.
