Well that was interesting.
I was honestly wondering whose fantasy it was throughout the comic. I felt like Lex wanted it to happen, too.
Not too sure about the water, or anything else going on, but the ending is a bit of a surprise.

Lex imagined so many ways for himself to die he forgot the most important one, old age. The ending surprised me. Can’t wait for the last chapter.

Wish they'd stop with the empty backgrounds.
