For some reason I always assumed that when Darkseid put Lionel's heart into the Lex clone that he put
Lex's soul back in as well. I suppose that was just my own poetic musing on the whole matter though.
There seems to be
more to
this Lex than he just being a biological
Smallville: The Best of Lex Blu-ray set.

He seems like the real deal. Memories don't make the man after all. Take Connor for example. All of Lex's memories but who did he turn out like? Clark!
Of course that's just my opinion so take it with a big ass grain of salt!
