Speaking of Colossal Boy, I dig how he's really a giant who can shrink down to human size and how he thinks he should be called Micro Lad.
Having her be a girl from another dimension who phases into this one seems like using the Colossal Boy formula on yet another character.
There's a lot more story potential though to her having two separate lives in two different realities and having people in each get glimpses of her interacting in the other while she's partially phased.
