History:
Born in Smallville, Lana grew up as Clark Kent's next-door neighbor and sometimes suspected he was Superboy. Then she herself gained a secret identity.

While gathering wildflowers outside of town, Lana received a telepathic SOS. Investigating, she found an alien trapped under a fallen tree. The alien was frail in comparison with Earth people, and Lana was able to move the tree easily. From his spaceship, the visitor got a gift for Lana – a biogenetic ring, though he failed to tell her its powers.

She soon learned she could take any insect form and have the powers of said creature. She could not take the same form twice in one day, however.

She tried to use her new powers to learn Superboy's identity, but only succeeded in revealing her own to Clark. She did foil some criminals, however, and became quite adept at using her insect abilities. On a trip into the 30th Century with Superboy, she was made a Legion Reservist.

As an adult, Lana still has her ring but seldom uses it. She no longer bother concealing her identity. On occasion, she had let friends such as Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen use her ring.

Powers:
Using the ring, Lana can take any anthropod form, such as insects, spiders, centipedes, scorpions, crabs, and lobsters, and acquire all their abilities. She can even take alien forms, if she knows of the species.
