History
In the year 2040, after Dick Grayson had spearheaded a campaign against superpowered beings, Lex Luthor had lost his arm at some point and replaced it with a bionic prosthetic. Luthor and Superman, in the past mortal enemies, had grown and matured and developed a partnership fighting crime in Metropolis, even though Superman no longer had powers of his own. Luthor was tasked with siphoning the cure to bringing superpowers back from Jake Grayson's blood.[1]
However, after succeeding with his goal, Lex betrayed Superman and Jake, choosing to unleash the cure in the form of a bomb underneath Metropolis that would give the entire world superpowers and simultaneously destroy Metropolis.
