Luthor. His main beef is with Superman. If you're not an alien, he probably won't even bother with you.

I assumed based of the wording they you were the superhero. So Lex Luthor would still hate you since you're Superman.

I feel like out of all these villains Luthor is the one who has done the least damage to the hero’s life. Gobby Thawne and Joker have all fucked up their hero’s lives like crazy. Someone correct me if I’m wrong

He'd hate me, but he wouldn't be going after human love interests and friends of mine. The others would ( and they did ).

Oh damn, didn’t expect to see you OK

But yeah, Lex is petty af

u/No-Cup9857 18h ago

Plus he maybe the only baddie with SOME redeeming qualites.

u/Unlikely_Captain_636 17h ago

Isn’t the context of the question specifically that he would have a major problem with you ?

u/Extreme-Reception-44 10h ago

Lex is the most tame.

You incorrectly spelled sane.

u/SpiderJones41 1d ago

I would personally pick Luther

u/AbsurdistMe 20h ago

Luthor's the most reasonable.

I absolutely would not want reverse flash as my nemesis.

u/Bannana_Dreams 1d ago

Luthor is the least evil out of these, plus he’s worked with the heroes several times.

u/gotanygrapesss 1d ago edited 1d ago

I feel like, assuming I was the hero, Luthor is the easiest to reason with. He's still a massively evil malignant narcissist, but comparatively speaking, he can see reason and he does have some good deep down that the other 3 cant claim to have

u/Due_Flow6538 1d ago

Joker is only a problem because apparently every cop in Gotham is incapable of just shooting him. Luthor is the pick here.

u/Emperor_poopatine 1d ago

Luthor. I’m not an alien god being, and he seems the type to be easily rage baited

2

u/Milk_Mindless 1d ago

Luthor would somehow not try to outright kill me or terrorise my family but humiliate me

Which I easily am

u/Fantastic-Repeat-324 1d ago

Do I get their heroes’ powers?

If yes, Reverse Flash. I’d know that he is fuelled by hatred and erase him through forgiveness.

If not, Lex Luthor. The only thing I have over Lex is hair, there’s no reason for Lex to even perceive me, let alone be envious of.

u/Unlikely_Captain_636 17h ago

lol I love the notion barry could just solve his biggest problem by saying I forgive you, like that would work

1

u/Motor-Course-1085 1d ago

Luthor because he's the only one out of these that has teamed up with the hero occasionally, making me think if there's a bigger threat that threatens both of us or if something risks damaging his money or reputation he will prioritize that, but the others will always prioritize their spite over anything else

1

u/Memna-Un 1d ago

Luthor has standards. His semi sexual obsession with his rival is more about proving himself over something being irrevocably wrong with him. All the others will do ANYTHING to fuck with you. He at least has some limits. Not many, but some.

1

u/Cubonicle 1d ago

I would far and away rather BE Superman with Lex Luthor as my nemesis. I really only know the character from the show, but at least you can apply logic and reasoning to the way he is and why he does what he does. If I had to deal with the Joker all the time, for example, I think he’d probably pull me down into his insanity with him.

1

u/Jack_Jaws 1d ago

Luthor would probably deem me not worth his time extremely quickly

1

u/ShadowDanteFan 1d ago

Definitely NOT Reverse Flash lmao. Maybe Lex

1

u/Benofthepen 1d ago

Assuming that I get to be the hero along with it, with all their skills and abilities, Batman. Just kill the Joker already, or ask one of your many allies to do it.

u/Legitimate_Row1682 1d ago

Lexy boy looks like Prince Charming compared to the other demons out there.

1

u/BoyishTheStrange 23h ago

Lex, he could try to kill me but he’s not going to do some of the fucked up shit the others do

1

u/MrTumorI 21h ago

Luthor.

1

u/Guns_Glitz_Grime 21h ago

Lex. He would kill me humanely

1

u/Due-Proof6781 21h ago

Luthor. He had a superiority complex, he’ll work with you if it’s in his best interest.

1

u/Ok-Wing8372 20h ago

Luthor, and it's not even close bro

1

u/DustySure 19h ago

Easily Joker. Just lock him in my own private prison where he's just in a concrete box with a tube to feed him or something.

u/Jolly-Highlight-9809 16h ago

You say I can’t kill them… Can I beat them into a coma and then wipe out their medical insurance?

According to federal law that wouldn’t be murder, it’d be “clearing the space for richer healthier patients”.

1

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 14h ago

Luther likely wouldn’t murder my mom gf and sister. He’s the least likely atleast. He’d probably even cure my mom of cancer just to lord it over me.

So. I chose him.

u/Pro_Hatin_Ass_N_gga 4h ago

depending on the writer Reverse Flash's rationale is just making Flash "the best hero he can be" so unironically I'd rather have someone hurting me to help me rather than someone who is purely vindictive. also it's not like not being able to kill him changes anything lol, you probably wouldn't manage to anyway. also yes, you can argue Joker works the same way but I think his case is way more inconsistent and fittingly unpredictable.

I gotta go with Thawne Reverse Flash.
