Synopsis | Professor Lang returns from an island like Easter Island where he suspects that an alien race had constructed giant statues. Part of his returning display of artifacts was a belt that incorporates their alien technology. Lana Lang dons the alien anti-magnetic and anti-gravity belt to become Sky Girl. Superboy uses the Lana's new super-powered identity as a chance to pay Lana for her secret identity snooping. Lana is rather mean about how she treats Clark. At the end Superboy gives Lana a super-compressed pebble with HIS secret Identity written in small letters on it. When Lana sets down the pebble the resulting crash alerts Superboy to Lana's dual id. After all, she does live next door. |
