Superwoman (Lana Lang)

They could have given her powers again from this Lazarus Event but they didn’t.
I will say, if one person has to take up the Superwoman name in Prime Earth I wish it would be Lana again.
A superwoman who isn’t evil or depend on time travel shenanigans.

Or, well, Karsta Wor-Ul's entire deal. Technically I don't think she used Super-woman.... but she DID use the name "Kristen Wells".

To me, Superwoman is evil, the evil E-3 version of Wonder Woman.

That’s why I said Prime Earth and not Earth 3.

lol, yep missed that.

Also, I will add than Lana has used several identities and powers, including curoiosuly Super-Girl and Super-Lana, but the main one always has been Insect Queen. She always return to that identity sooner or later.

I love pre-Crisis Insect Queen. No one was really able to modernize it and make it work -- with possible exception of Amalgam comics in Spider-Boy.

Funny you should mention that...

Oh it's a Busiek story... soooo many of those are good.

reminds me... we had (in the JMS Superman run)Lisa Jennings who is similar to Kristen Wells in being not a Kryptonian, but....

I never knew Lana was an Insect Queen! Look at what she did to Supes, lol!

Actually it's a hybrid insect monster made mostly out of Kryptonian DNA. 'cause this version of Insect Queen is a villainess who makes an army of bug soldiers.

But she also was not called Superwoman, officially. Even if the name was implicit. Or it was called that way? Honestly, I don't remember.

We can't forget also than during the New52, there was a Lana Lang from Earth 2 (seen in Futures End) who had control over the insects, so technically there was a new52 Insect Queen too.

Well, her future self worked for a Superman-themed organization and she wore a uniform with the Super-woman look to it. But.... yeah... technically she never used the moniker "Superwoman"

There was also a Pre-Crisis Earth-2 Insect Queen

I wonder how she would fare against Queen Bee Zzzalla?

This Insect Queen could bench a freight train, so... hmm...
