I do agree with you here, my friend. At first I thought Voldemort's power would be enough, but the ability of Lex together with 3 months of prep time, give him the edge, I think.
You are correct, in these Vs battles though, a "feat" is generally a feat, so a little freedom is required here.
But if you're really going to cry about it, fine, no Nuclear Man. Lex would shoot his ass with a gun, or hire several assassins to shoot him, as not to get his hands dirty.

FIRSTLY: What about Voldemort's Horcruxes? Lex certainly wouldn't be able to kill Voldemort if he still had his Horcruxes.
SECONDLY: Voldemort rarely ever does that kind of stuff himself, he sends the Death Eaters to do his dirty work for him, while he sets his mind to other matters- stuff he wouldn't trust his Death Eaters with. I am pretty sure that one of Voldemort's many spies would find out about Lex's plan beforehand and that he would send a couple of Death Eaters to dispose of Lex before he even had time to plan out a way of killing Voldemort (who, you MUST remember, had ways of being unable to die).
And oh yes, Voldemort and his Death Eaters have the advantage of invisibility and magical stealth. And in the case of Voldemort- possession.
Sorry, but I must make the correction. Or I will explode.
The Imperius Curse. And no, Voldemort used the Killing Curse during the battle with Harry, in GoF. Harry countered it with the Disarming Charm. Of course, Voldemort did use it BEFORE they battled, to try to make Harry answer 'no' when asked if he wanted the Cruciatus Curse used on him again. But Harry threw it off.
And it's called Apparating/Disapparating, not teleporting. And he battled Dumbledore in OoTP but never killed him.
I wasn't aware of what everything is called in the english version so I just used the words that I thought bescribed it best. Also I realise that try kill Harry should have been placed.
I merely mention that from my point of view, the feat is entirely acceptable but the scenario that you outlined was based on the circumstances that Luthor (from what I know) had no control over and that his chances ore replicating it are very small if not nearly nonexistent within the given timeframe.
1. Last time Voldemort was fatally attacked but still had his Horcruxes of f@ggotry, he spent the next 13-14 years coming back to power. In a forum battle, he does not have the luxury of time, and given Lex's intelligence, even if we stretch the fight he can and will find the Horcruxes and have them destroyed.
2. So he can invade on Lex's prep-time? That is against forum rules, but two can play at that game. Within the first day, Lex drops a nuclear bomb on Voldemort. So yeah, Voldemort is not allowed to invade on his prep time.
It is? I just read them and I dont see anything pertaining to that.

I'd say it depends on how treacherous the combatant is. that's just me.

OK, I am assuming that both combatants would have full access to all of their resources then?

Not quiet only Lex, since he was given the prep time, Voldemort doesn't gain any because he (unlike Lex) doesn't know that he is to battle a person in three months. However I'm unaware to what extent both Characters have knowlegde of each other... In The Comic Versus it's basic knowlegde about the Characters...
I would assume that since wizards have direct contact with political officials, Lord Voldemort has a pretty good grasp of muggle personalities in politics and major figures in business, and the like. In this scenario, Lex is fully aware of what is going on in the wizarding world(I'll leave the speculation as to how up to you), and is working covert to kill LV in three months.
