Superman 292 - origins of the luthor/superman rivalry


Action comics 363-366 - Luthor created virus X in prison lab and nearly kills superman with it


Action 544 - introduction of the luthor green armor suit and destruction of planet lexor.


Superman spectacular special - Luthor & Brainiac teamup to take down superman. Luthor then got blindsided by Brainiac who is planning to take earth as his prize.

Joe Kelly's Action Comics #795, "The Thirteenth Hour."

Final Night

The first half of his storyarc in 52

The finale of Infinite Crisis

End of the Century

Red Son


His cameo in Swamp Thing
