This version of Emil, as with the previous version, is based on Lex Luthor. In DC's Post-Crisis continuity, Luthor was a young genius who arranged the death of his parents in a car crash and began his empire using the life insurance policy that he took out on their lives. In DC's Pre-Crisis continuity, Luthor had a sister named Lena, and in the Superman novels written by Elliot S! Maggin, used multiple identities. Emil Burbank's origin is a combination of both interpretations of Lex Luthor.
