Daily PLanet Headline: Luthor's Dead!Widow recieves fortune!

By Lois Lane

Yesterday at 2:45 am, Alexander"Lex" Luthor, died in his sleep after almost a week of severe illness. The mysterious Luthor, billionare and owner of Luthor-corp, and his wife, noted arachnologist and author, Lana Lang, lived a life of seclusion. Choosing to get treated for his symptoms at home rather than at proper medical institution, the healthy man of twenty-seven passed on with only his wife as witness. Earlier today Ms. Lang, who decided to keep her maiden name for science related reasons, made a public announcement stating that of the 176 billion eft to her in her late husbands will, one- third of it will be donated to charities worldwide as well as some universities. She made the tearful announcment that Lex's funeral will be held a week from this date and will be at the Metropolis cemetary where he will be buried next to his father. The fashionable Ms. Lang will also be starting a new fashion line based on the research she has done with spiders. The designs will be derived from the markings each species uses to identify itself and warn off predators. As a preview to this, Lang was wearing a black silk shift dress with a bright red hourglass-shaped mark on the bodice. Some people commmented it was rather innapropriate giving that this is the mark of the, often deadly, black widow spider. But even yet it was stunning.
