In a World's Finest Mary Marvel solo story from the Bronze Age, by E. Nelson Bridwell & Don Newton, she fought a teenage villainess with electrical powers. What did this villainess call herself?

Storm Silvana would get them sued by the X-Office...
I'll go with...
Lightning Lass! (thinking that Ayla would be light lass at the time, freeing up the name)

Not Lightning Girl.
"Lightning" is actually the second word that makes up her name.

Not that either.
Think of a certain kind of reaction.

Fun little story, and so refreshing to see Mary get the spotlight!
Over to you!

nice! always pleased to see a Mary Marvel spotlight, Annfie!
let's see...
this is from an animated series, but I suppose it should be fine for this thread.
in the JLU toon, when Amazo returns to Earth, the first line of defense is in space. We have Superman, Green Lantern, a fleet of Javelins... and 5 other heroes. Who were these 5?

good start! a clue, Amazo had the powers of all the original League members at that point, and had gained more power. So the League needed a lot of firepower up in space, along with having space-worthy heroes

good guess, raz  Dr. Light... and STRIPE too! (was honestly surprised by STRIPE, didn't realize the armor was that powerful) in the JLU toon, when Amazo returns to Earth, the first line of defense is in space. We have Superman, Green Lantern, a fleet of Javelins... and 5 other heroes. Who were these 5? clues: the remaining 2 are both male. One was also a Justice League member in comics, but the other was not. Correct: Captain Atom Doctor Light STRIPE Not: Adam Strange Firestorm Hawkgirl Hawkman Martian Manhunter Rocket Red Starfire Supergirl Wonder Woman Stargirl Captain Marvel

I haven't really participated in this question because I never saw the cartoon, but I am aware that the Prince Gavyn Starman had an action figure in the animated style. Is he one of the remaining answers?
