Fictional character biography

Supergirl clone

The first Satan Girl is a clone of Supergirl created after she is accidentally exposed to red kryptonite. Satan Girl infects members of the Legion of Super-Heroes with red kryptonite in an attempt to prolong her existence, but is defeated by Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Pets and dies after the kryptonite's effects expire. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}

Dolores Pratchet

The second Satan Girl is Dolores Pratchet, an 18th-century witch whose daughter Rachel became an Angel of Fire after saving her friend Ember from being executed at the stake. Dolores works with the demonic Carnivore to save the two, gaining magical powers and becoming his servant. Satan Girl's magic brings the current Angel of Fire, Supergirl, to the past, making it so that she would die on the stake instead and Rachel and Ember would exist in the present. Supergirl escapes with help from Ember, who returns to her own time to die on the stake. Satan Girl is erased from existence due to the timeline being altered. ^{[5] [2]}

S'tanicule Gyrstress

The third Satan Girl is S'tanicule Gyrstess, the Brocian goddess of love and death from another dimension. She is transported to the main universe when Brainiac 5 accidentally blasts a statue dedicated to her with chronon energy. Supergirl and Brainiac 5 ultimately defeat S'tanicule and return her to her dimension. ^{[6] [2]}
