Empress Webula controls the empire with the aide of Prymite Spydera and the Cobweb, a council of twelve SpiderSect Prymites who rule different regions of the empire.

The Emerald Empress is a fictional DC Comics supervillain, an enemy of the Legion of Super-Heroes and a member of the Fatal Five.

 Young Justice #44 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
However the Empress' attack proves to be too powerful for Secret to handle, and Jason Todd dies a painful looking death.
The messed up timeline is a favorite comic plot device, and most times it's also a pretty solid one, as it's always fun to see the impact one little change would make on the life of characters we're all familiar with.
The sequence where Empress carries out this murder is also nicely handled by the art, as the struggle to save the doomed Jason Todd is quite visually striking.

Being a Jungian, I originally envisioned the Major Arcana of the DC Tarot along the lines of the Hero's Quest, with the Fool traversing the stages of life, descending into the underworld (subconsciousness), and eventually reaching a higher state of being.
I also felt that the Manichean duality of the layout played well to the conventions of the comics I was using as a basis - Superheroes as the light, conscious mind, and Supervillains as the dark subconscious.
But as I began to assign characters to cards, I found the symbollism of the comics did not divide so easily into fl and white as I had expected.

However, Caravan Kidd tends to be easier on the eyes and brain, as the art is cleaner and the story uncomplicated, when compared to a classic Matsumoto tale like Galaxy Express 999.
