That's funny; I had the exact same reaction. Wow, poor Lex: somebody made him go sit in the corner. Or alcove, to be exact. At least there's a nice chair in the alcove. For some reason. (I guess Lex gets told to sit there a lot?) And I have to grant that he's wearing it well; few people could sit in an alcove with such dignity and presence. But still. The dude's in a weensy little alcove, by himself, facing a wall. He's been placed there almost as if he's a potted plant. And while it's true that having Lex Luthor sitting in one's alcove would add a great deal of character to any room, so I have to admire the decorator's choices there, I can't help but feel bad for the guy. Couldn't somebody at least give him a book?
It's like the weirdest picture ever. Well, not ever, but it's definitely weird. Like you said, he looks darn good doing it, but why is he there? Who put him there? It *does* have a potted plant vibe.
