The New 52
In The New 52 relaunch of Action Comics, an elderly character named Mrs. Nyxly was introduced as Clark Kent's landlady. She is revealed to know Clark's secret identity as Superman. After Clark's apparent death while attempting to save a man from committing suicide, she is revealed to be a princess from the fifth dimension. Her real name is Nyxlygsptlnz, the wife of Mr. Mxyzptlk and daughter of King Brpxz. She is also referred to as Gspltlnz. She grants Clark a wish, and makes everyone forget that Clark Kent's death occurred. She is also revealed to be aunt of Ferlin Nyxly, a Superman villain and museum curator from previous continuity. Another character from the fifth dimension, Vyndktvx is hunting her, and Superman as revenge for Mxyzptlk stealing his reputation and his fiance. She is shot and killed after she tells Clark the story of how she came to Earth and the events that led to Vyndktvx's evil motives.

Famous quotes containing the words the new:
“The New Testament is remarkable for its pure morality; the best of the Hindoo Scripture, for its pure intellectuality. The reader is nowhere raised into and sustained in a higher, purer, or rarer region of thought than in the Bhagvat-Geeta.... It is unquestionably one of the noblest and most sacred scriptures which have come down to us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
