This book works as either a standalone book to a sequel to the blue beetle movie! You don't need the movie to understand the book but it doesn't hurt to.

-----------

The Luthor family had always been famous, at first at had been for their wealth, then Lexcorp had taken off and their fame grew. Now however the family was most famous for its most infamous son, Lex Luthor. Lex was a criminal, most people knew that, he almost ruined the company he had built until his mother had come in and taken control once he was finally arrested after a battle with Superman.

After their mothers death, which many blamed Lex for, Lena Luthor took control of the company and rebranded it as Lcorp instead of Lexcorp. It didn't seem right to keep his name on the company after everything he had done.

Lena ran the company for the next twenty years while simultaneously raising her adopted son. She knew she couldn't do both jobs at once while being good at both. As expected the decision to try to do so ended up costing her later.

A month or so after her sons twentieth birthday Lena was surprised when suddenly enough of her companies shareholders decided to sell their stock which made Jenny Kord, the buyer and the CEO of Kord Industries, the majority shareholder of the company.
