Quote1 This is a world, where the strong rule. And you are the strongest of all of us... Remember when we were small, Somishka? How I used to save you from those bullies? Now you must save all of us. Quote2
Svetlana src

Svetlana was a childhood friend of Kal-L and often protected him from bullies.

Once after she protected him Dmitri Romanovich and his gang of bullies, She told Kal to start fighting back as she couldn't always protect him. He however stated that he didn't fight as he could injure them, though she didn't believe him.

When he demonstrated his superhuman powers and took her for a flight, she encouraged him to serve the Soviet Union as the people needed him. She was later imprisoned in an underground gulag under Joseph Stalin's regime alongside others who knew who Kal was before becoming Superman.

She eventually became ill while working in the gulag, but Superman found it after receving a top secret American file on Stalin's gulags from Lois Lane. After he took her outside as she started to die, she stated that she held on for long just so she could see him again. Before dying, Svetlana asked him to use his powers to protect the people.

  • Svetlana was voiced by Winter Ave Zoli.
  • She is based on Superman's childhood friend Lana Lang.
