Satan Girl (Supergirl Clone)

Main Article: Kara Zor-El

During a period when Supergirl spent time in the 30th Century, she was exposed to a piece of Red Kryptonite. The Red-K knocked her unconscious and produced an evil duplicate of her which called herself Satan Girl and had all of powers, memories and scientific knowledge. Knowing the Red-K effect wore off after 48 hours and she'd merge back with Supergirl, Satan Girl devised a plan to live on. Satan Girl built a pair of bracelet devices to draw Red-K radiation from her body and transfer her to other human being. She attacked the female Legionnaires, siphoning Kryptonite radiation into their bodies to preserve her existence. The female heroes fell ill and were placed under strict quarantine. Ignoring their strange illness' origin that the Legionnaires called it 'Crimson Plague'. Then Satan Girl introduced herself to the Legion wearing a lead-lined mask and a black suit. She took credit for the plague and threatened to kill the Legionnaire girls if she wasn't accepted into the Legion. The Legionnaires called Supergirl in to fight Satan Girl, but Satan Girl proved to be even tougher than her. Satan Girl almost killed Supergirl and destroyed the Legion, but the Legion of Super-Pets managed to hold her down until the effects of the Red Kryptonite wore off. Defeated, Satan Girl unmasked herself and revealed everything before being re-absorbed back into the body of Supergirl never to return. (Adventure Comics v1 #313)

Satan Girl (Delores Pratchet)

Main Article: Delores Pratchet

Dolores Pratchet was a Colonial era witch whose daughter Rachel became an Angel of Fire alongside her friend Ember after saving her from being executed. Dolores works with the demonic Carnivore to save the two, gaining magical powers and becoming Satan Girl. After being transported to the present day and battling Supergirl, Ember returns to the past to prevent Rachel from rescuing her, erasing Satan Girl from existence. (Supergirl v4 #40)

200 years ago in colonial America (1776). Dolores Pratchet a practitioner of Satanic rituals lost her daughter Rachel when the young girl tried to save her friend, a slave named Ember, from being burned at the stake for witchcraft. The two girls fused into one and became an Earth-Born Angel of Fire. However Ember began to fall from grace, dooming both her soul and Rachel's. Dolores made a deal with the demonic Carnivore and agreed to become his servant to save her daughter. He gave her magical powers and dubbed her Satan Girl. Satan Girl's magic was able to bridge time and pull the current Angel of Fire, Supergirl, from the present and switch her bodies with Ember, so that Supergirl would die on the stake, and Ember would exist in the future (along with Rachel). This disturbance of the timeline allowed Satan Girl to appear in the present with Ember. However, Supergirl was able to escape her death with the aid of Ember, who returned to her own time to live out her fate, and a sorceress known as Tammy Neil. By setting the timeline right, Satan Girl crumbled to dust as she was not alive in the correct timeline.

Satan Girl (S'tanicule Gyrstress)

Main Article: S'tanicule Gyrstress

Brainiac 5 accidentally called her to Earth when he tinkered with an ancient Brocian statue offered up to her. She possessed nearly all Legionnaires as soon she arrived, and she enslaved the entire planet in days by spreading her "Crimson Plague" on the air. Then she began building a dimensional portal inside her citadel to call all of her people to the Legion's universe. Supergirl and Brainiac 5 tried to stop her. When it proved to be imposible, they went back in time to prevent Brainy from experimenting on her statue. (Supergirl Annual v5 #2)

In the 30th Century, Brainiac 5 is conducting experiments on a ten thousand year old Brocian Hunting Statue. Which was rumored to have magical properties to it. His experiment got out of control, though, forcing Supergirl to save him - though the statue was destroyed. Brainiac 5 and Supergirl where both super-charged with temporal energy from the statue. Unknown to Brainiac 5, once destroyed the statue released a virulent magical plague, possessing people and releasing a demon called S'Tanicule Gyrstress, or "Satan Girl" - the Brocian Goddess of Love and Death. Witnessing her arrival on Earth Brainiac 5 quickly escape with Supergirl into the future. Four days into the future bore the shocking result of the world controlled by Satan Girl, with everyone on the planet possessed and in her service. Even other members of the Legion are under her control, attacking Supergirl and injuring Brainiac 5. Supergirl retreated and treated Brainiac 5 while developing a plan to defeat Satan Girl. Using an artificial Jimmy Olsen tour-guide program in the Superman Historical Museum, she charged into Satan Girl's Citadel with an army of Jimmy Olsens to pave the way. As they fought, Satan Girl managed to strike a fatal blow to Brainiac 5. Using energy that Brainiac 5 and Supergirl originally absorbed in the initial destruction of the Statue, Brainiac 5 was able to develop a way to seal Satan Girl away before she was released to begin with. This reversed time, with Brainiac 5 no longer injured, and with he and Supergirl being the only ones to remember Satan Girl.
