Lucy Lane is a fictional character
in the DC universe
. She is the younger sister of Lois Lane
and the most recent person to take on the identity of Superwoman
.
to adults, and getting into various kinds of mischief. Susie's last appearance was in 1955. While Lois' sister (and Susie's mother) was never shown in the Golden Age comics, after the advent of DC's multiverse
in the 1960s, later stories such as Action Comics
#484 (from 1978) presented Lucy as having had an Earth-Two
counterpart (a married woman named Lucille Tompkins), who was the mother of Susie.
Lucy Lane was first introduced in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen
#36 in April 1959. In the Silver Age stories, Lucy was presented as an airline stewardess who was an on-again, off-again romantic interest of Jimmy Olsen. More so than her sister, Lucy carried a worldly, cosmopolitan attitude about her. Lucy's Silver Age appearances often revolved around Jimmy's various attempts at romancing her.
Lucy was reintroduced into current comics continuity in issue #5 of John Byrne's 1986 miniseries Man of Steel. Lucy was an air traffic controller, but became affected by a mysterious blindness that was cured as a side-effect of the destruction of a Bizarro
clone (loosely reflecting the first Pre-Crisis Bizarro story). Lucy returned to her job and had a brief relationship with Jimmy Olsen
. After many encounters with super-villains such as Deathstroke
, Sleez
and even becoming a vampire bride, she eventually started dating African-American Daily Planet
staff member Ron Troupe
. When Lucy became pregnant, her conservative father was enraged (although Lucy explained "There's not a racist bone in Daddy's body. He hates all his daughters' beaus.") Sam Lane eventually overcame his anger when Lucy and Ron were married and their child was born.
is unclear, they are possibly estranged (Troupe having resurfaced in the current storylines, working again with the Daily Planet). Her long disappearance is explained by her joining the military, in a desperate, post-mortem attempt to appease her (presumed) dead father's desire to have a son able to carry on his career in the military. Bitter and angrier than in her former appearances, she still blames Lois for General Sam Lane's apparent death during the war against Imperiex
. Essentially, she thinks Lois broke his heart by putting her love for Superman
before her duties as a daughter.
Lucy references her former appearances, even mentioning her "dating boys in Lois' circle" as failed attempts to live her life through her more successful sister, but she eventually chooses to sacrifice her life and live the military career her father intended for Lois, driving an even deeper wedge between the two sisters. However, unbeknownst to her, their father is still alive, and working with the government.
Lucy's marriage to Ron Troupe, and the birth of their child Samuel Troupe, may still be in continuity, as a photograph of Sam Troupe appears on Ron's desk.
Lucy first appeared as Superwoman in Supergirl
#35, her costume a nod to that of the Bronze Age
Superwoman Kristin Wells
and containing a containment field that simulated Kryptonian powers. However, Lucy's identity was not revealed until near the story arc's end. During her tenure as Superwoman, she was ordered by her father, General Sam Lane, to kill Agent Liberty
, who had been spying on General Lane and Lex Luthor. (This resulted in her being the focus of the Supergirl Faces of Evil
issue.) She later attacked Reactron
, which tipped off readers that Superwoman was not Kryptonian (in that the villain's Gold Kryptonite power source had no effect on her). Supergirl unmasks Superwoman, and accidentally kills her by rupturing the containment field of her suit, causing Lucy's body to contort and explode.
In the Supergirl Annual #1 reveals the current modern backstory of Lucy Lane. In the story, Lucy, since the moment she was born, has felt overshadowed by her big sister Lois. Lucy always felt that Lois outperformed her, overshadowed her and was more loved by their father. Lucy never blames Lois but she blames her parents Sam and Ella. Feeling that by maybe being closer to Lois her father would pay more attention to her, Lucy moved to the same city but this came at the same time Lois and her father grew apart over Superman. After her father's death, Lucy joined the army. Being a great soldier and a woman, Lucy rose quickly in the ranks. During the Amazon attack
on the United States, Lucy was nearly killed by two Amazons but was saved by Codename: Assassin
. Awaking in Project 7734, her father is able to convince Lucy to put on the Superwoman suit, which possessed mystical qualities.
Although seemingly dead, Lucy's remains steal the lifeforce of a man (Steven Morrow) who came too close. When Lucy is recovered by General Lane's forces, they learn that the suit's mystic energies have somehow transformed her into an actual Kryptonian.
After the War of the Supermen
storyline, Lucy is in custody in S.T.A.R. Labs by Dr. Light
and Gangbuster
, who are attempting to remove Lucy's metahuman abilities. After interference by an object that crashes into a Metropolis park, before they leave, Lucy's holding cell starts to crack. Later, Lucy is visited by her sister Lois, who wants to talk. Lucy is unhelpful as she has completely given in to insanity. Lois tells Lucy that she is disgusted by her and walks away leaving Lucy behind.
The abilities she has used thus far are: Vast superhuman strength, speed and durability, invulnerability, flight (normal and interstellar), freeze breath and heat vision. The powersuit also protects her from the harmful affects of Kryptonite and grants her the ability to steal the life of someone nearby to resurrect herself.
Any other non-Kryptonian abilities the suit may possess have yet to be revealed.
As a result of her resurrection in issue fifty of Supergirl, she is said to have all the inherent abilities and weaknesses of 'Those alien races' which were duplicated by the suit as the result of her return from the dead. While the exact number of alien races whose powers are duplicated by the suit are unknown, Kryptonian powers are among the powerset, as she displayed the ability to use Heat Vision shortly after her recovery by Sam Lane's forces when she was reborn. She also confirms that she possesses super hearing when she murders a scientist working for Lane, though she does so with some form of energy blast from her hand, a power that is not among the abilities of a Kryptonian. If this statement is accurate, Lucy Lane now shares the inherent weakness to Kryptonite which all Kryptonians possess.
The original suit was destroyed by Supergirl, however she appears to have acquired another as of issue fifty of Supergirl, and it is currently unknown if this suit is the same as the one she had been using to masquerade as a Kryptonian, or a non-magical one.
movie Supergirl
as a friend and schoolmate of Supergirl's alter-ego Linda Lee. Fame actress Maureen Teefy
portrayed her here as a peppy teen-ager with a burgeoning relationship with Jimmy Olsen (mimicking their relationship in the comics).
In Superman: The Movie, she is mentioned (not by name) by Lois Lane right before Superman makes his first public appearance. However, here she's said to have three kids, two cats and a mortgage. Making it inconsistent with Lucy's later appearance, in the Supergirl movie, where she's still a teenager.

Lucy Lane first appeared on the television series Smallville
in the season four episode "Lucy"; she was played by Peyton List. In this version, Lucy has been attending school in Europe for some time, and has consequently been out of touch with her sister Lois. Lucy tells Lois and Clark that she is on the run from a German loan shark
named Marcus Becker. After initially trying to help her, Lois and Clark discover that Lucy is using their friendship with Lex Luthor
to con him out of money to pay off her debt. Lucy is resentful of her sister's relationship with their father, and was also using this opportunity to get some revenge on her. Becker decides to hold the two sisters for ransom, but they are rescued when Clark intercepts the truck and stops it. Lucy sneaks away when Lex arrives with the police and speeds off in his Mercedes
. She is not seen again and is at one point thought to be in Berlin, Germany
.
Lucy is also briefly mentioned in the episode "Persuasion" when Lois (under the effects of Jewel Kryptonite crystals) believes she is marrying Clark and calls Lucy to tell her she's getting married.
Lucy appears in season 10's seventh episode, as she surprises Lois along with General Sam Lane when they arrive on the Kent farm before Thanksgiving. Her troublemaker personality has not lessened since season four, and she stirs up some waves in Lois and Clark's relationship, as both Sam and she test Lois' feelings for Clark. As she's close to the General, Rick Flag of the Suicide Squad tries to get to the General through his youngest daughter, but once again Clark saves the day. Lois and Lucy make up, and all is well on the Kent farm as they enjoy a family thanksgiving dinner.

Powers and abilities
Although Superwoman has no inherent powers, her powersuit alters her DNA (via a containment field) to resemble that of a Kryptonian and as such would potentially make her capable of all the same feats they possess under the yellow sun.The abilities she has used thus far are: Vast superhuman strength, speed and durability, invulnerability, flight (normal and interstellar), freeze breath and heat vision. The powersuit also protects her from the harmful affects of Kryptonite and grants her the ability to steal the life of someone nearby to resurrect herself.
Any other non-Kryptonian abilities the suit may possess have yet to be revealed.
As a result of her resurrection in issue fifty of Supergirl, she is said to have all the inherent abilities and weaknesses of 'Those alien races' which were duplicated by the suit as the result of her return from the dead.
