Luma Lynai
Luma Lynai
Female protagonist in a tale of the romance between a super-powered woman (Luma) and Superman. In a tragic story, Supergirl imagines Superman could be happy if only he could fall in love. Supergirl arranges two encounters for Superman, one with Helen of Troy in the past, and one with an adult Saturn Girl in the future. Neither situation works well, so Supergirl uses a computer in the Fortress of Solitude to locate Luma Lynai, super-woman of Staryl. Luma is an adult heroine who bears a startling resemblance to Supergirl herself. Quickly, Luma and the Man of Tomorrow fall deeply in love. However, Luma derives her life force from an orange sun, cannot tolerate Earth's yellow sun, and convinces Superman to leave her, saying to Kal, "Earth needs you, go, forget me...I'll always love you!" (Act No. 289, Jun 1962: Superman's Super-Courtship!").
