Biography
Pre-Crisis
She accompanied her brother as their ship went through space when its energy cells were close to depletion. They decided to land on the wild planet of Korbal where they hoped to use the native lightning-monsters to replenish the power supply of the ship. The beasts, however, surrounded the pair and unleashed their electrical attacks but the proximity of the many beasts caused the energy to simply surround the twins thus giving them electrical powers. Her brother decided to use his abilities to become a superhero but they decided to keep her new powers a secret lest criminals attempt to target her. Thus, her existence was mostly unknown to anyone and she lived her life secretly. (Adventure Comics v1 #308)
Following the death of her twin brother, she decided to secretly transport his body to Lightning World so that he could find peace there. She then masqueraded as Lightning Lad and pretended to revive to continue his role as a superhero. The Legion of Super-Heroes came to uncover this and instead had her join their ranks where she took the name of Lightning Lass. (Adventure Comics v1 #308)
