A Thought Expermient about Superwomen

In several of the earliest versions of Superman’s origin, his mother Lara is offered the chance to go to Earth with her baby, but chooses to die with her with her husband on Krypton instead.

But what if Jor-el had insisted that she go? She would have ended up on Earth with her Superbaby, perhaps around the time women got the vote.

And unlike the infant, she would have been fully aware that she’d lost her people and planet, not to mention the love of her life. 

That could make quite a mini-series, a kind of ElseKryptons story.
