trollprincess captures her beautifully in this character study that explores the time between Superman II and Superman Returns, as Lois deals with the fact that her lover disappeared, and that she's pregnant with an alien child. This story lets her be real, and vibrantly alive. Wonder of wonders, this story also lets Richard be the nice guy he is in the movie, without turning him into a jerk for horning in on Superman's girl.
