Chrissy Beppo (UE-43)

Christine "Chrissy" Beppo is the co-owner and editor-in-chief of The Smallville Gazette.

Meeting Lois Lane
Chrissy met Lois Lane at a diner and his herself from looking at her. She then formally introduced herself to Lois during the Smallville town meeting and expressed her thoughts of having Lois at her newspaper publisher. After quitting the Daily Planet, Lois Lane went to the office and started working at the Gazette, with Chrissy admitting she was lying about an editor being interested in her skills and the editor was in fact herself.

The Edge of Humanity
With Lois working with her, the two investigated Morgan Edge and was approached by Sharon Powell, whose son has been missing. Chrissy and Lois then worked day and night searching for clues that could expose Edge. However, they were interrupted when Lois' car was sat on fire by a hooded man.

Later, Chrissy and Lois investigated New Carthage despite Lois being attacked by the hooded man once more when she went to New Carthage for more information. While the two worked in the office, they were approached by Leslie Larr, who brought a copy of Lois' contract and reminded her that she could not write an article that "defames" Edge.

On the day of the Harvest Fest, Chrissy and Lois was approached by the Powell family and was informed that Derek returned home with his recent memories gone. Chrissy then suspected him and expressed her suspicion to Lois, with her agreeing and continuing the investigation. During the event, Chrissy followed Derek Powell to a building with a "Bride of Frankenstein" machine. She then called Lois, whose husband Superman overheard the conversation and flew to assist Chrissy. After Superman fought Derek and the latter committed suicide, Chrissy escaped back to the town and returned to safety.
