Lana Lang is a fictional, supporting character in DC Comics' Superman series. Created by writer Bill Finger and artist John Sikela, she first appears in Superboy #10 (September-October 1950). Lana traditionally has been Superman's romantic interest when they were teenagers in Smallville. In the Silver Age, she regularly appeared in series featuring the character’s teenaged self, Superboy. She also often appeared as an adult in Superman series, vying with current love interest Lois Lane for his attention. In the modern DC Comics continuity, she and Clark Kent were and still are close friends with a certain degree of romantic tension between them. Furthermore, in the current version of Superman's origin story in Superman: Secret Origin, Lana is made privy to Clark's unusual abilities from an early age, becoming his only confidant in his childhood outside his parents and the Legion of Super-Heroes. For a time, Lana is married to Pete Ross, Clark Kent's best friend as a youth, and has a son named Clark Peter Ross by Pete. Lana has been featured in most other media adaptations of Superboy or Superman as a teenager, including the series Smallville where she is played by Kristin Kreuk.
