Tag: Supergirl in the Multiverse

Earth-6 or better know as Just Imagine. Earth-6 was a short series of prestige format one shot comics with the premise of Stan Lee, prolific Marvel writer and creator of many characters from that universe, reimagining a handful of DC comics heroes. The series was published from 2001 to 2002 and was comprised of 13 stories. There was a one shot special in 2022 called Tales From Earth-6 that was put out to celebrate Stan Lee’s 100th birthday that further explored the universe.

The Earth-6 Supergirl is not a character that was introduced as part of the series. Because of this, I have taken some aspects of the stories and characters as presented in the Just Imagine stories and created my own backstory and character design.

Earth-6’s Superman is Salden who (during the events of Just Imagine Superman) stole a test prototype spaceship that uses a new element that can bend spacetime. Salden later (During Just Imagine Crisis) also landed back on Krypton and stole another sample of this element now know as Kryptonite. Salden, after landing on Earth became known as the hero Superman. My idea for a backstory involves Karron, the Super Girl from Krypton, being tasked by the Kryptonian government to follow Salden to Earth with a new spaceship and with a more advanced flight suit than Salden had, and bring Salden back to Krypton to pay for his crimes where he would be sentenced to the Phantom Zone.

As with all of my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork and it depicts Super Girl of Earth-6 in a costume designed with elements of Salden’s and other Kryptonian costumes and also depicts the Supermanor that Salden lives in on Earth as shown in Tales from Earth-6. In the top right there is a motif of the Supergirl S and a 6 on top of it.

Earth-5 is the home to Captain Marvel and the rest of the SHAZAM family, a group of heroes that have been bestowed upon them magical powers of SHAZAM. The wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury.

The Earth-5 Supergirl is Mary Marvel. Her civilian identity is Mary Broomfield, although she has sometimes gone by the name Mary Batson. She is the biological sister of Billy Batson, also known as Captain Marvel or SHAZAM. She first appeared in the Fawcett Comics published Captain Marvel Adventures #18 from 1942. In 1972 DC licensed, then later purchased outright, the Fawcett characters to publish in a new comic for DC SHAZAM #1 (1973). Mary Marvel and the rest of the Marvel Family have since been a part of the greater DC Multiverse as Earth-S and after Crisis on Infinite Earths would merge with a handful of other universes to become New Earth.

More recently during the Lazarus Planet event, from DC Comics in 2023, Mary loses her original SHAZAM powers and is granted new powers from Hippolyta where her new powers are all from goddesses. The agility of Selene, the strength of Hippolyta, the stamina of Artemis, the flight of Zephyrus, the invulnerability of Aurora, and the wisdom of Minerva.

As with all the Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork and it depicts Mary Marvel flying through the sky. In the background on the left you can see the Rock of Eternity emitting a bolt of lightning that is striking Mary. A motif of Mary Marvel’s symbol is shown in the top right with a number 5 over it.

Earth-4 is the home of the superheroes who initially appeared in Charlton Comics such as Captain Atom, Blue Beetle, Peacemaker, and Nightshade. After Crisis on Infinite Earths this universe, as well as Earths 2, S, and X, combined with Earth 1 to create a New Earth.

The Earth-4 Supergirl is Bombshell. Captain Atom is most often seen as Earth-4’s Superman, and seeing that Amy Adams from New Earth underwent the same procedure that gave Captain Atom his powers it only makes sense for her to be Earth-4’s Supergirl. Bombshell (Amy Adams) is a member of the Teen Titans first appearing in Teen Titans #39 (2006) and had many appearances in that title until that book ended in 2011. She had a few other minor appearances but was usually only shown in team shots with the rest of the Teen Titans.

Amy Adams’ parents were part of Project Quantum and subjected her to the same Dilustel treatment that was given to both Captain Atom and Major Force. Her initial appearances showed her in an antagonistic role against the Titans. She was planted in the team as a traitor who would be revealed as such by Ravager. Later on in the Teen Titans run she would rejoin the team for real in an effort to redeem herself and attempt to become a hero.

As with all my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork and it depicts Bombshell on the left leaning against a wall with her arms crossed. In the background on the right is a computer screen reading “Project Quantum” and depicting my take on what Bombshell might have looked like if she had appeared in Charlton Comics alongside Captain Atom. A motif in the top right shows the Bombshell symbol and a 4 on top of it.

Earth-3 is the home of the Crime Syndicate of America. A mirror universe where the good guys are bad guys, instead of a Justice League we have a Crime Syndicate who rules over the world who’s only hero is Alexander Luthor.

The Earth-3 Supergirl is Ultragirl. There have only been a few appearances of this character and include 2 different versions. The first version of this character shows up only briefly in issues 16 and 15 of Countdown to Final Crisis. The second version of this character showed up in issues 4, 5, and 6 of Crime Syndicate from 2021. This Ultragirl is an assistant to Alexander Luthor and eventually joins his Legion of Justice in an attempt to thwart the Crime Syndicate.

Because she has such few appearances, her origin is relatively unknown but can be assumed it is similar to her Earth-0 counterpart up until she becomes involved with Alexander Luthor.

As with all my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork and it depicts Ultragirl in space floating above Earth-3 and it’s moon, the sun is seen coming up from behind the Earth. A motif of the Ultragirl symbol is in the top right with a number 3 on top of it.

Earth-2 is the home of the JSA and other golden age heroes of DC Comics. First being shown as an alternate reality in Flash #123 where the golden age Flash comes to Earth-1. Earth-2 would get many other appearances after this including a handful of series including the book that was this character’s first appearance.

The Earth-2 Supergirl is Power Girl. She first appeared in All-Star Comics #58 which was also the return of the JSA in their own comic after only making guest appearances since the change of All-Star Comics in 1951 to All-Star Western.

Power Girl shares similarities to her Earth-0 counterpart, she too came from Krypton and is the cousin of her Earth’s Superman. However, she does differ, her name is instead Kara Zor-L and instead of being launched from Krypton as a teenager, she left the planet as a baby and her Symbioship kept her in stasis as she took her long journey to earth and as she was in stasis she learned of Kryptonian life from a virtual reality program built into the ship.

As with all my Supergirl in the Multiverse posts, this is my own artwork and it depicts Power Girl standing in the foreground. A city scape is shown in the background including Starrware Industries at sunset. In the top right a motif of the Supergirl symbol is shown with white and a tan circle to depict the iconless costume she wears. A number 2 is on top of the symbol.
