Maybe add a second shot of Lex doing something villainous?

^ The point stands that Lex Luther doesn't mean much to the majority, so either we go with a more popular character (like the devil) or add a panel to show Luther's bad side.

I tend to watch more audiovisal media than comics and at least in most movies and animated series Luthor is always known in-universe as a bad guy. I know is not the same in comics but I wonder if someone not familiar with comics would get the message.

Previous thread here. I'm not sure I totally follow the reasoning behind keeping this image on Villain with Good Publicity because there's the assumption that "Lex's well-known enough to be a villain," but even knowing that, it's difficult to recognize him in this image, imo. I didn't recognize him at all until I read the caption. And it's fair to say that most people wouldn't know much about Lex Luthor.
The current image is JAFAAC.
For a replacement, I suggest the Smiler◊ from Transmetropolitan. This trope is also discussed in this page of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, and I suggest panels 3, 4, and 6. Another suggestion might be a combination of this image◊ and this image◊ of Mom from Futurama.
