In essence, the Zatanna Zatara of Earth-87 is a mix of her mainstream counterpart and Doctor Strange. She is a professional magician by day and a custodian of mystical artifacts by night. Her father, Giovanni Zatara, was a founding member of the Justice Society and is the latest Doctor Fate. While she possesses a greater talent for magic than her father, she is far less committed to being a superhero. She focuses on her craft as a magician and hunts for relics mainly for fun or as a kind of “magical exercise.” Nevertheless, she takes the power of relics seriously and is an active member of the Justice League. She even volunteers her home, Shadowcrest, as necessary.
Trivia
Techno Bacon and I fancast Natasha Liu Bordizzo for this version of Zatanna.
Unlike her official counterparts, this Zatanna is not a Homo magi. In fact, none exist in Earth-87, as Techno Bacon and I dislike the concept.
As a custodian of mystical artifacts, Zatanna owns and makes use of several powerful objects, such as: the Sword of Night, Extraño's Wand/Wand of the White Witch, Crystal of History, Necronomicon, Grimorium Verum, Historama, Celestial Bow of Yi, Black Pearl, Philosopher's Stone (Formerly), Pandora's Box, Dreamstone, Kawolo's Magic Ring.
At her peak, Zatanna is one of the most powerful residents of Earth-87.
Techno Bacon and I decided to make Zach Zatanna's brother rather than her cousin in an effort to create a Mycroft/Sherlock dynamic. Zach being the more talented but lazy brother and Zatanna being the less talented but far more active magic user.
