Created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster, the character first appeared in Action Comics #1 (June 1938). Lois is an award-winning journalist and the primary love interest of Superman. For fifteen years in DC Comics continuity, she was also his wife. Like Superman's alter ego Clark Kent, she is a reporter for the Metropolis newspaper, the Daily Planet.The character was created from many influences. Her physical appearance was originally based on Joanne Carter, a model hired by Superman co-creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and Siegel's future wife. Siegel based Lois' personality on Torchy Blane—a gutsy, beautiful, and headline-hunting reporter, portrayed by Glenda Farrell in a series of 1930s films. Siegel took the character's name from actress Lola Lane, who played Torchy Blane on one occasion. Lois was also influenced by the real life journalist Nellie Bly.Depictions of Lois Lane have varied since her character was created in 1938, spanning the entire history of Superman comics and other media adaptations. During the Silver Age of Comics, she was the star of Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane, a comic series that had a light and frivolous tone. The original Golden Age version of Lois Lane, as well as versions of her from the 1970s onwards, portrays Lois as a tough-as-nails journalist and intellectual equal to Superman. Throughout the character's long history, she has always remained the most prominent love interest in Superman's life, and is considered the archetype comic book love interest."@en }
