Titans season 4 may be introducing Lex Luthor as a new rumor is claiming that the iconic Superman foe is on his way to the HBO Max drama. One of the core characters on Titans is Conner Kent, a.k.a.

The closest the show got to Lex was the presence of Mercy Graves during Titans season 2, where she was one of the main villains alongside Project Cadmus. Even though Titans isn't dependent on Superman and Lex showing up, it's still an unfinished storyline for Superboy as he has yet to meet the people whose DNA created him.
