History
Luornu was born on the planet Cargg to Humre and Silvou Durgo. All natives of Cragg have the ability to split into three identical beings, this might have something to due with the triple suns of that world, not sure if this was ever explained. As a Teen Luornu traveled to earth and Joined the Legion of super-heroes, it was not explained at the time why she joined but that was common at the time. According to revised Legion history she is considered the first non founder to join the team. There is not much to tell about her early adventures with the team nothing stands out to my memory, until one of her selves were killed by the villainous Computo (created by brainiac-5) and she renamed herself Duo Damsel. She was a part of one of my favorite stories of the Adventure comics run which introduced Mordru. It was in that story I noticed her crush on Superboy, (it might of been shown earlier but I have not read those stories in a long time.) Later when she realized that she did not have a chance with Superboy she started dating Bouncing Boy, and Later married him. This relationship gave me hope that a dorky loser could land a Hot babe like her.  Luornu is a member of the Legion's espionage Squad, usually using her powers to appear as two different people to gain information. At this point in my coverage of the Legion she has Married Bouncing boy and resigned from the Legion. She will appear in future stories.

Next time the first story of Superboy 201
