Supergirl in the Multiverse: Earth-54

The space faring adventurer by the name of Tommy Tomorrow is a member of the Planeteers in the far off future of 2054. The Planeteers are a peace keeping operation that travels the galaxy helping those in need. Colonel Thomas Tomorrow and his compatriot Captain Brent Wood travel in their spaceship called the Space Ace. Tommy Tomorrow had many adventures as a backup feature in Action Comics starting with Action Comics #149. Tommy Tomorrow has shown up in various forms across different continuities but him being a part of DC ‘s science fiction corner and being a Planeteer is pretty consistent.

I was not able to read the entirety of Tommy Tomorrow’s appearances, but in what I could read (the stories collected in DC Finest: Science Fiction) the only Planeteers shown were Tommy, Brent and their un-named commander. It was implied that the Planeteers were a fairly wide organization and it’s safe to assume there are plenty other Planeteers. My idea for this additional Planeteer, Tori Tomorrow, is someone who looks up to Tommy, possibly a niece or cousin of either Tommy or Brent, who later in life joins the Planeteers and takes up the moniker of Tori Tomorrow after her idol.

As with all my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork. Tori Tomorrow is on the left side of the panel with a ray-gun held aloft. The bottom part of the panel has text reading “Join the Planeteers” in front of and behind Tori’s legs. The background features a space scene including space ships (one being the Space Ace). The top right corner has a purple and yellow circle representing the Planeteers with a 54 on top of it.
