Terri Henshaw as she appears in the comics.

Terri Henshaw, her husband and two of their friends were returning from when they encountered a freak radiation storm. The radiation affected the machinery of the vessel and the shuttle crash landed somewhere far away from its intended target. When the four explorers had freed themselves from the wreckage, Hank Henshaw discovered that his friends Steve and Jim had been horribly transformed. Terri seemed to be fine, but Hank himself could feel radiation sickness beginning to eat away at him. The group went to Metropolis in search of a LexCorp facility that they could use to fix their mutations but ran into Superman and were subsequently involved in a time consuming fight. Terri started exhibiting symptoms, beginning to fade from existence. Hank tried his hardest to work on a cure for her but he was going fast. Hank came up with a plan to fix Terri, but died before he could use it. Thankfully, Superman was still there and he was able to save Terri before she completely disappeared. Some time later, Hank returned in a new form. His first thoughts once reconstituted were of his wife Terri who had been institutionalized after the traumatic events which she had witnessed. Henshaw found Terri but after appearing as a robot and leaving suddenly when security came, Terri was left even more disturbed than before. When Henshaw heard how his visit had made Terri feel, he decided it would be best for him to leave Earth and continue his hunt for knowledge on his own.

This incident was later retconned so that after seeing her husband resurrected as a robot, Terri immediately jumps out of the nearest window. Instead of fleeing for space, Hank Henshaw now seeks revenge on Superman, who, as Hank believes, ruined his life.
