June 24, 2010: Paul Cornell Discusses "Action Comics" and Lex Luthor

Action Comics #890 iFanboy.com sat down with Paul Cornell for a one-on-one interview to ask him about his up-coming run on "Action Comics", starting with issue #890 (out on November 30). Here's an excerpt from the interview where he discusses Lex Luthor...

    MA: What drives Lex Luthor? What is his greatest weakness?

    PC: He could be the modern Prometheus and steal fire from the gods and give it to ordinary human people, and be such a great hero... Apart from his glaring human flaw, his egotistic need to destroy Superman before helping humanity, to be the biggest man before all else. I think that's because, somewhere deep inside, he realises that Superman is better at being a *human being* than he is. I think Lex knows his own mind and his own weaknesses really well, but what he says out loud is a different matter.

Check out the complete interview at the iFanboy website.
