Leticia Luthor is the mother of Lex and Lena Luthor.

History

When Lex was a child, Leticia noticed he had a natural talent for music and taught him to play the piano. To this day she maintains that he should have been a musician rather than gone into science or business. Leticia claims that she tried to protect her children from Lionel's abuse, but eventually could no longer deal with it and left her family. Leticia moved to Metropolis and founded what would eventually become LexCorp. When Lex also came to Metropolis she allowed him to stay with her, but Lex stole the company out from under her.

Lex had Leticia, and later his daughter Lena Luthor II, effectively imprisoned on a private island with no contact with the outside world. Even Lois Lane, the world's best investigative reporter, believed that she was dead. However, she retained a seat on LexCorp's board of directors.

When Lex was imprisoned for his crimes, he lost control of the island, allowing Leticia and Lena to leave. When Luthor signed over control of the company to Superman, Leticia went to Metropolis; ostensibly to investigate if he had the authority to do so. In reality she joined up with Lex's old rivals Graft and Dr. Pharm and their scheme to take revenge on Lex. Rather than simply kill him, the Lex Luthor Revenge Squad planned to destroy his legacy by killing everyone in Metropolis with synthetic Kryptonite which was fatal to humans, developed by Lex decades ago. They were foiled by Lex and Superman, and were all imprisoned.
