The Senior Advisor to the Legion of Super-Heroes.
Superboy first meets Marla Latham when he accompanies Ultra-Boy to 20th-Century Smallville as "an official observer." It is Latham's task to observe Ultra-Boy's initiation into the Legion.
Masquerading as Ben Crane and Gary Crane, Marla and Ultra-Boy pose as recent arrivals to Smallville in order to learn Superboy's secret identity, knowledge of which will guarantee Ultra-Boy Legion membership. With their mission accomplished , and their identities exposed to Superboy and Pete Ross, Marla and Ultra-Boy return to the 30th Century. As a parting gift, and as a reward for his loyalty to Superboy, Marla gives Pete Ross a coin that "will serve as a pass to the super-heroes Clubhouse whenever the Legion meets" (SB No. 98/3, Jul 1962: "The Boy with Ultra-Powers!").
