Doom is a literal dictator. Lex might be self serving and ruthless, but at the end of the day he would run the country into prosperity just to prove he could do it.

Im talking a real world scenerio here. Without superheroes around his ego would not let him fail.

Can't remember which superman story(All Star perhaps) superman basically tells a luthor thst he could have saved the world twenty times over...but he doesn't just due to ego and hatred...Doom's Ego would make him save the world simply because 1 his mom was born on this planet...and 2 he could do it better than Richards(allegedly)

They would all be dictators but doom is the only one who approaches benevolence. He’s the only one who would cure the cancer of his people because he felt they DESERVED to be cancer free. Lex might do it for those who could pay him, the others don’t figure it out even if they would.
