1. Allegedly mean parent isn't enough IMO. Consider that Darth Bane had an abusive father, and is still considered Pure Evil. Ezekiel Stane in Iron Man: Rise of the Technovore had a mean father, and is still regarded as a Complete Monster by TV Tropes. And in Luthor's case, his father was only ALLEGEDLY abusive.

As for his failing the heinous standard, I disagree; one mass murderer of innocents should be as bad as another. Luthor's bodycount is approachable to Ludendorff's, and had Doomsday been alowed to roam free, it is likely that Ludendorff's bodycount would have been exceeded. I think he's heinous enough.
