Good guess on Starman, stile!
Clark Kent Pete Ross Handy question, as I just read Vartox the other day. I remember Lana and him as a couple, if only briefly
Um....

Did she date Guardian (Jim Harper) one time?
How about Gangbuster?

Thoth has three correct.
In Pre-Crisis, apart from the usual Lois/Lana Superman obsession, Lana had a long distance relationship with Vartox for quite a while but then ended up in a pretty serious relationship with Clark Kent not long before Crisis. In Post-Crisis she married Pete Ross although they later divorced. (In later years she became a confidante and mentor to Kara who adopted the name of Linda Lang as a distant cousin, but that isn't the sort of relationship I am looking for.) One to go.
I don't remember her dating Guardian though it is possible. Gangbuster had a close relationship with Lois for a while but I don't remember Lana being involved.

Can you list all the serious relationships the adult Lana Lang has had? I count four. Can you remember more? Guessed so far: Clark Kent, Pete Ross, Vartox. One to go.

I'm only remembering frivolous, smallville ones... The alien who gave her the ring, that drone bee, superman red...or was it blue, Spiderman who she then ate in that early DC/Marvel crossover..
A manhunter, who was duping her into monitoring Supes?

Good thought but he only had eyes for Lois (although he also found Contessa attractive). I'm only remembering frivolous, smallville ones... The alien who gave her the ring, that drone bee, superman red...or was it blue, Spiderman who she then ate in that early DC/Marvel crossover..
A manhunter, who was duping her into monitoring Supes? none of these. Additional clue: we have covered Pre-Crisis and Post-Crisis. What's left?

Not sure if you're limiting it to comics, but she's married on the current Superman & Lois series.

Not just some bloke. Actually a rather well-known if B-list character. Even had his own comic.

Not Grifter. I'm guessing no-one here has been reading New52 or Rebirth Superman comics.
This character is strongly associated with Superman, still appears currently, is a hero in his own right, has family with more super-heroics, and has had his own self-titled comic.

The Chinese Superman? (And you're correct, I have not been reading new 52 Superman at all. The new 52 effectively killed my interest in the wider DCU. I have bought very little since that began.)

No DC for me either, with Legiony exceptions.
Steel had a daughter who was in armour at some point. He had a book too, and armour had the S symbol on it.Steel?

Was it niece? I've only seen her a couple of times. Still hits the hint though.

In Superman & Lois, she's the daughter of Steel and Lois Lane from an alternate Earth!
Not sure why I'm just throwing out random S&L facts in this thread, but...
