Gwenna was originally the “bored socialite” Gwen Davis | [[File:Young Gwenna and friends.png|thumb|left|A young Gwenna hangs out at a [[Pinefield]] coffee shop with [[Deena Hancock|Deena]] and [[Fred Hancock|Junior]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Ruthless Ro-Man (comic story)|Ruthless Ro-Man]]'')]]Gwenna was originally the “bored socialite” Gwen Davis. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Serpent Sorceress (comic story)|The Serpent Sorceress]]'') She grew up in [[Pinefield]] and attended high school with two close friends, [[Fred Hancock|“Junior” Hancock]] and [[Deena]]. As the two girls grew, they became rivals for Junior's heart, though not to the extent of spoiling their earlier friendship; eventually, during the summer after their graduation, Junior proposed to Deena rather than Gwenna. Finding herself more grief-stricken than she'd expected, Gwenna not only left them but the city altogether, deciding to go out of town for college. Down the line this led to her ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Ruthless Ro-Man (comic story)|Ruthless Ro-Man]]'') finding a new life in [[the Naked Jungle]] as the “mate” of [[Kaza (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Kaza]], who had already been “Jungle Lord” for some time by the time she joined him.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Ruthless Ro-Man (comic story)|Ruthless Ro-Man]]'')]]By a “few years” ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Ruthless Ro-Man (comic story)|Ruthless Ro-Man]]'') before 2010, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Serpent Sorceress (comic story)|The Serpent Sorceress]]'') [[Ro-Man]]'s alien invasion force happened to land in [[the Naked Jungle]]. Since they knew better than anyone, Gwenna and [[Kaza (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Kaza]] ended up participating in the effort to fight off [[Ro-Man]]'s attempted invasion of the planet, alongside such superheroes as [[Dynamo]], [[Samson]], [[Flame Girl]], [[Blue Beetle]] and [[Zanzibar the Magician]]. Ultimately, however, it was [[Stardust the Super-Wizard (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Stardust the Super-Wizard]]'s intervention which was instrumental in turning the battle around and repelling the invaders.

Recruiting Gana's finest warriors, they surrounded the Temple, but the situation ended up being resolved with minimal bloodshed when the Serpent Lord was revealed to be a very real, but non-supernatural, giant snake whom Wimberly shot at reflexively, breaking Nerlana's telepathic control on it and causing it to eat her instead of Kaza.
