Supergirl in the Multiverse: Earth-43

Threatened by scarlet acid rain, a somehow more menacing Gotham is inhabited by the supernatural creatures know colloquially as vampires. Earth-43 has gone by many names since its inception including Vampire World, and Earth-1191 but is most know for the story that introduced the concept: Batman and Dracula: Red Rain. The general concept for the universe is that vampires are real, and throughout the events of Red Rain, Batman himself gets infected with this undead disease. While the initial trilogy of stories from this universe focus pretty strictly on the Dark Knight, more recent iterations have explored a wider DC roster of characters to encounter a vampiric foe.

The maid of might has yet to show up in this universe in any version, although a Ultraman does exist in the most recent version of Earth-43. My concept for this universe’s Supergirl is not as a vampire, but as a vampire slayer. My thoughts are that Kara Zor-El lands on earth after surviving the destruction of her home-world and is quickly met with a vampiric threat. Kara soon realizes her enhanced powers on this planet can come in handy to take on this unnatural threat. She takes to studying how to take out these monsters and finds out her cousin is one of these monsters and sets her mission on taking him out.

As with all my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork. Supergirl of Earth-43 stands in the foreground, her iconic look of a blue tunic and red skirt is further adorned with a dark red overcoat, she holds a wooden stake up in her left hand. The background shows stone walls leading to a dark hallway with a coffin at the end of it. The top right corner features a motif of Supergirl’s S symbol with a 43 on top of it.
