Lenny was the nephew of Lex Luthor, born to his sister.

Lenny Luthor was the nephew of Lex Luthor who is skilled with inventions and is an expert drum player. Lenny helped his uncle break out of the prison rock pile by trapping police guards in his remote-controlled convertible and driving them off the cliff. He then helped Lex steal a strand of Superman's hair from the museum, since Lex claimed it contains enough of Superman's DNA for him to create a superpowered being that he alone can control. After Lex Luthor's Nuclear Man was defeated, Lex and Lenny started to drive away from Metropolis to find a place to lay low until Lex can come up with another plan. Their car is then picked up by Superman much to Lex's annoyance. Before returning Lex to prison, Superman brought Lenny to Boys' Town where its presiding pastor promised that he would watch over the young man after being told about having been raised by a bad influence. Lenny did ask the pastor if he had any drums.
