That's not even really Supergirl. That's Matrix, which is a whole other creepy thing unto itself.

So yeah, that really *is* Not Doctor Octopus with Not Doctor Doom, Not Sabretooth, and Not Magneto.

They're called The Extremists and from an alternate dimension that is ~Mysteriously similar~ to Marvel. There were also heroes (The Blue Jay who is basically knockoff Hank Pym) and the Silver Sorceress (You can figure this one out) who were part of the Justice League for a while. There was also Wandjina who was Knockoff Thor and who you probably remember from showing up in Multiversity if you read that. That said DD dude was Doctor Diehard who was knockoff Magneto. Unrelated fun fact: Cyborg Superman actually began life as knockoff Reed Richards.

He made the perfect villain for that Superman/Fantastic Four crossover. Just so he can be all "We're a lot alike, you and I. No, for real. A LOT alike. Look at our origin stories, man! It's crazy!"

Ignite Memories posted:Wh.... what? Hank Henshaw, his wife Terri, and two others flew the shuttle Excalibur on a mission which paralleled the Fantastic Four's flight. Unfortunately, the power he got from being hit with the solar flare was to rapidly decay. The other's got similarly nasty powers, and only Terri was saved. Hank's body fell apart, but his mind got uploaded into the LexCorp mainframe. He first came back in a robot body which drove his wife insane and eventually to suicide. So, he beams his mind through a NASA satellite into the ship that brought Superman to earth, uses that to construct a new body, and becomes the Cyborg Superman that showed up after Superman died. Because comics.

Hank Henshaw sounds like a 70's wrestling heel from Smoky Mountain. Can't believe he took the TV title from the Nature Boy.

I'm rather partial to the pre-fame video he made explaining Knightfall where it was super low-budget. Where Bane was a skinny guy in a luchador mask and Azrael was a black dude in a terrible blond wig excitedly holding a cross. When he became Azbat, he wore a red bucket over his head and Freddy Krueger claws.

So Tippy-Toe is just being drawn as though he's in shadow? I thought it was a reference to the fact that a lot of squirrels up north are black and she had a local on her shoulder:

In Squirrel Girl, if a squirrel has a pink bow around its neck, it's gonna be Tippy-Toe.

There are, in fact, many Canadian black squirrels in the issue, but that is Tippy-Toe who is neither black nor Canadian. I think the coloring is just a bit off in that panel. Also we have black squirrels here in DC, too. Something like 10% of the local population are black, and they can breed with the brown squirrels.
