DC Alterverse

UNIVERSE-50

This universe is based on Wildstorm universe characters. Most of the characters are based on members of the WildC.A.T.s team, except for Sunlighter, Erebus, Firestone and Prima Donna, based on Apollo, Midnigther, Flint and Diva, respectively, who were members of the group Stormwatch.

Most codenames have a correlation to the names of the Wildstorm’s characters, except Veritas (Zealot/Wonder Woman composite) and Shooting Star (Grifter/ Captain Comet composite). I couldn’t find a good word related to “zealot”, so I used the Latin word for “truth” (a reference to Wonder Woman’s Lasso of Truth). Shooting Star is a synonym of Comet, although it the word “Shooting” is also a reference to Grifter’s habit of wielding guns.

Also, the names of Apollo’s and Midnighter’s counterparts have inverted/crossed motifs in comparison to the source material: Apollo’s mythological reference (Apollo is a Greek deity related to the sun) goes to Midnighter’s pastiche Erebus (the Greek deity of darkness), while Midnighter’s nighttime reference turns into daytime reference for Apolo’s pastiche Sunlighter. 

The members’ Universe-0 counterparts are or were, at some point of any continuity, members of the Justice League, including honorary member Captain Comet. 

Despite the groups’ name, none of the members have a feline-motif, but the source material WildC.A.T.s didn’t have a cat-related member either.

Justice L.E.O.P.A.R.D.S. (League of Extraordinary Operatives Prepared for Action, Rescue, Defense and Security)

Clockwise from lower left:

SUNLIGHTER

Real name:  Kal-El/ Clark Kent

Based on: Apollo

Universe-0 counterpart: Superman

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Erebus/ Bruce Wayne.

 

EREBUS

Real name: Bruce Wayne

Based on: Midnighter

Universe-0 counterpart: Batman

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Sunlighter/ Clark Kent.


CHARM

Real name: J’ann J'onzz/ Jane Jones

Based on: Voodoo

Universe-0 counterpart: Martian Manhunter

Marital/ Relationship status: n a relationship with Shooting Star/ Adam Blake.

 

GAP 

Real name: Inza Nelson

Based on: Void

Note: She wears the mask of N.A.B.U. : Nanotech Advanced Biomagical Unit.

Universe-0 counterpart: Doctor Fate

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Kent Nelson.


VALIANT

Real names: Hal Jordan

Based on: Spartan

Universe-0 counterpart: Green Lantern/ Hal Jordan

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Carol Ferris.

Note: Interestingly, the TV series Arrow has a Spartan (John Diggle) unrelated to the Wildstorm’s character. Then, in the Arrowverse crossover Elseworlds, Earth-90 Barry Allen (John Wesley-Shipp reprising his role from the 1990’s The Flash series) says John should be wearing a ring, implying that Earth-90 John Diggle was a Green Lantern (possibly a version of John Stewart). It makes this (Wildstorm’s) Spartan-based character being a Green Lantern a bit ironic. 

MAJESTRIX

Real name: Kara Zor-El/ Karen Starr

Based on: Mister Majetic

Universe-0 counterpart: Power Girl/ Power Woman

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Veritas. They have a daughter together, thanks to the advanced reproductive technology of her homeworld. They used cloning techniques to combine their genetic material into an embryo, then implanting it on Veritas. Their daughter is named Donna Starr-Prince.

Notes:  Donna Starr-Prince is based on Wildstorm’s Kenesha, daughter of Zealot and Mister Majestic, having Donna Troy (who, in some continuities, is a magic clone of Diana/Wonder Woman) as her Universe-0 counterpart.

VERITAS

Real name: Diana Prince

Based on: Zealot

Universe-0 counterpart: Wonder Woman

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Kara Zor-El/ Karen Starr a.k.a. Majestrix.


FIRESTONE

Real name: Iris West-Allen

Based on: Flint

Universe-0 counterparts: Flash (Barry Allen) and Iris West (based on the TV version from the Arrowverse).

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Barry Allen, who doesn’t have superpowers in this universe.

PRIMA DONNA

Real name: Dina Lancelotti

Based on: Diva

Universe-0 counterpart: Black Canary

Note: She shares her power with her sister Sara, who acts as a solo hero, as a reference of Wildstorm’s two Divas (sisters Isabella and Alessandra Fermi) and Arrowverse’s two Canaries (sisters Laurel and Sara Lance). Her name was adapted to Italian, as a reference to Diva's nationality. In an epiosde of the TV series Legends of Tomorrow, Sara Lance's surname was associated to Lancelot (she flirted with Queen Guinevere).

Marital/ Relationship status: In a relationship with Barbara Gordon.


HARPOON

Real name: Orin (Atlantis), Arthur Curry (surface)

Universe-0 counterpart: Aquaman

Marital/ Relationship status: Married to Mera.

Absolutely love this! I have sort of a request. In part of your Multiverse, would you consider doing a would combined with Earth 7 or 8 in honor of the original canon Amalgam Comics. For example Wolfman (Batman + Wolfen), Green Machine (Green Lantern + Machinehead), and so on. Maybe earth 6 since Stan Lee created that, or Earth 36 or Earth 9?

I've decided the combinations, but the look/costume design will take some more time. The only one I could make a sketch by now was Wolfman. I haven't decided the universe's number (but it won't be Stan Lee's, which will be a separated one, with a redesign of Lee's League). In any case, here goes the list:
–Super Crusader/ Jim Harper (Superman + Crusader)
– Weather Wonder/ Nubia (Wonder Woman/Nubia + Sarah Rainmaker, acquired by DC)
– Wolfman/ Bruce Wayne (Batman + Wolfman; Sometimes disguised as Marv Matches, as a reference to a certain real-life comics writer)
– Birdie/ Carrie Kelley (Mainstream Robins + Carrie Kelley, creted before Jubilee, but they shares some similarites, anyway)
– Goldspell/ Zatanna Zatara (Zatanna + Silver Sorceress, who, despite the name, wears golden clothes; the only Silver she has is her hair... which is most times covered)
– Doctor Mistery/ Gregorio de la Vega (Doctor Fate + Extraño- his codename means "strange", and he's a magician/sorcerer. Steve Orlando's version in Apollo and Midnighter's solo title emphasize the similarites)
– Green Machine/ Simon Baz (Green Lantern + Machinehead) I chose Baz because of his skills in mechanical engineering, required to build an armor.
– Fast Fire/ Barry Allen bonded with Etrigan (Flash + Brimstone II + Demon)
– Gray Skull/ Ethan Avery fused with Solomon Grundy (Damage II + Monster or Behemoth) The pun with a certain cartoon castle was a temptation too strong to ignore.
– Challenger/ Rose Wilson with aspects of Kid Devil (Ravager + Stuntmaster, who was never shown, only mentioned)

It's Earth 6 the one created by Stan Lee. Earth 9 is Tangent Comics.
