In "The Strange Revenge of Lena Luthor!", the Ultra-Humanite’s mind is transplanted into a giant ant, launching a bizarre crusade that draws Lana Lang into a dangerous role as the Insect Queen—pitted against Superman in a battle of wits and wills. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and brought to life with dynamic art by Irv Novick, Frank Chiaramonte, and Tom Ziuko, this 1982 DC classic features a uniquely unsettling twist on classic superhero tropes. The cover by Ross Andru and Dick Giordano captures the story’s eerie, insectoid menace with striking precision.
