I wouldn't say Superman has a great or deep Rogues' Gallery.

He's got Luthor, Brainiac, interchangeable Kryptonian Enemies (Jax-Ur and Zod)....after that they're just generic space conquerors (Mongul) and useless villains like Toyman and Prankster. It's one reason why the higher ups at DC eventually made Darkseid more of a Superman enemy, the other reason being that Orion isn't that great a protagonist for the New Gods storyline.

Superman has a great rogues gallery:

Brainiac
Cyborg Superman
Darkseid
Doomsday
Livewire
Luthor
Maxima
Metallo
Mongul
Mxyzptlk
Parasite
Toyman
Zod

The Cyborg is pretty one-note, Darkseid is a transplant from the 4th World series, Doomsday is a mindless beast, Livewire isn't much of anything, Maxima is just the embodiment of horniness, Mongul is fairly generic, Parasite can be good when used right...which isn't often, Toyman and Prankster are harmless, and Metallo more often than not is just a thug.

He's only got Luthor, Brainiac and the interchangeable Kryptonian villain (Jax-Ur and Zod). Like I said, the lack of decent villains is why Darkseid was transplanted in.
