Amanda Spence

History

Amanda Spence was the daughter of Paul Westfield, one of the scientists responsible for creating Superboy. Once a member of the Agenda, she started out by collecting informations on Superboy, posing as a reporter and interviewing Tana Moon, Superboy’s girlfriend at the time.Not long after that, she and her agents attacked Superboy’s Compound and managed to capture him. The Agenda successfully cloned Superboy, creating Match, who was even more powerful than The Kid and they had plans on creating a whole army of Superboy clones.

While battling Match, Superboy caused a chain reaction, resulting on the explosion of the place, and Amanda was placed under arrest.However, the Agenda had infected Superboy with a virus designed to break down his DNA, forcing Cadmus and the Superman Team to search for alternatives. Amanda volunteered to give a hint on how to proceed, telling something she heard from the directors of the project. When asked why, she replied she owed Superboy one, as he saved her from the explosion.

When the Agenda managed to escape, they soon sent Match to free Amanda as well.
