Part 2: "The Fate of Bee-Boy"

Lana appears in this story as Insect Queen between the first story of Superboy #124 and the second story of Adventure Comics #355.

This issue contains a one-page text article "The Lowdown on Lana".

Synopsis:
Lana Lang and her father visit Africa where Lana uses her bio-ring to become Insect Queen. As an ant-lion Lana unearths a buried pyramid and angers the natives. Their guide, a boy named Kim, is injured in the attack. Lana rushes the boy to entomologist Dr. Pelham who saves the boy by transforming him into a human-bee hybrid.

Bee-Boy is despondant due to his freakish nature. Lana tries to comfort the boy, but each time she tries her efforts backfire. Finally, when he can stand his existance no longer, Bee-Boy tries to use his stinger on Superboy in an act of suicide. The Boy of Steel avoids the collision, then convinces Bee-Boy that he will search for an antidote to restore him to normal.
