Alive!

This is my favorite episode of this series, as it focuses on Lex Luthor using his power over the Secret Society to further his mad ambitions. With no superheroes to root for, you can sit back and enjoy watching these unprincipled, selfish jerks battle it out for control. The villains fight really dirty, and the resulting mayhem is impressive.

One of the fun things about this episode is watching all the odd villains culled from almost 70 years of comics. And you'll see that Luthor really does deserve his status as Superman's arch foe.

Be ready for a couple of good plot twists, and don't worry about your kids seeing this. Being a hero may be hard, but being a villain just plain sucks. Even with no heroes around these guys manage to defeat themselves.
