Really Cool Scenes - The Lex Luthor Waitress Bit

Remember the Lex Luthor Waitress Bit?

Isn't it funny how that scene is not remembered anymore?

That scene used to be, like, the most acclaimed Superman scene, like, ever.

Now you do not hear about it as much.

That is too bad, because it is a good little short story.

It appeared in Superman #9, and was written and drawn by the regular writer/artist, John Byrne.

In it, Lex Luthor stops at a roadside diner, and well, you know the plot in Indecent Proposal?

Same thing, basically.

Only Luthor leaves before she will ever know what she would have truly done.

Nice, twisted example of how evil the new Lex Luthor was.

I really enjoyed it.

Definitely, a really cool scene.

It was reproduced in the big Superman art book that was out a while ago. Personally, I always felt it was a bit... wanky. Byrne's Luthor was very seedy but he was never that interesting or exciting or cool.

Best Luthor scene for my money is here: http://superman.ws/tales2/einstein/?page=15

A little hokey, but still ace.
