Several 1940's tales chronicling Luthor's battles with Superman retroactively show him with a full head of red-hair, such as the All-Star Squadron retelling of a portion of the 1941 Power Stone series of tales. This Luthor bedeviled Superman repeatedly after he was married to Lois Lane, such as when he learned of his adversary's weakness to Kryptonite with the help of [[Swami Rivers]] and when he used a "magic" mask and was thwarted by the pair known as [[Hocus and Pocus]].

Alexei Luthor of Earth-2

Luthor menaces Lois Kent. Art by Rich Buckler and Dave Hunt, 1982.

The Earth-2 counterpart of Lex Luthor (SF No. 202/2, Jul/Aug 1980: "The Man Who Discovered Kryptonite"). Unlike his Earth-1 doppleganger, this Luthor did not meet his Kryptonian archnemesis, the Superman of Earth-2, until they were both adults (Act No. 23, Apr 1940). Also unlike the Earth-1 Luthor, Alexei appears to never have lost his full head of red hair. In 1982, the both of these Luthors work as a team with the villainous Earth-3 Superman counterpart known as Ultraman to conquer Earth-3. This vile scheme is foiled by the Supermen of Earths 1 and 2 as well as the first and only Earth-3 superhero: Alexander Luthor (DCCPA No. 1: "Crisis on Three Earths!").
