Alexei Luthor of Earth-2
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!").
