How would you do an "Ultimate" DC Universe?

[Mutant God]

I like to create alternate universes so here is one of them:

Earth-2002

Superman - A simple farm boy with cancer who saves the life of time traveling mercenary Booster Gold and is rewarded with a serum created in the future by scientists who experimented on metahumans for years under the name Project Cadmus that was funded by several powerful men known as The Elite with each man wanting more power. The Omega Serum gives Clark several different powers but because of the cancer in body he needs sunlight to give his powers and to neutralize the cancer cells in his body.

Villains:
D'hark Seiid - Powerful African (or Middle Eastern) dictator and member of The Elite who successfully gets an Omega Serum but turns into a fat rock creature who can manipulate powerful lasers and energy beams.

Supporting:
Supergirl - A girl name Claire Connor who has breast cancer but is rewarded with a serum created by Brainiac, to give to Lex, but stolen by Booster Gold to give to her after she saves Superman's life.

Booster Gold - A time mercenary who accidentally who messes with time and ends up creating Superman and questions "why not change time".

Rip Hunter - Another time mercenary who gives The Elite their serums because he believes the past shouldn't be changed only to find out The Elite have been manipulating time for their own desires.

Concepts:
Phantom Zone - A super prison built by LexCorp to put Superman in calling him a threat but is taken by the Government and puts Z.O.D. in instead. Given Future Tech by Booster Gold, the prison is sent to different places so no one in the prison can know where their are or anyone not in the government can know where it is.

Some more ideas on this Superman's universe:

K-Metal/Meta-Metal - A unique metal created by the efforts of Rip Hunter, and the military and managed by Amanda Wall to neutralizes metahuman powers.

Metallo - Veteran war hero General Sam Lane volunteers for a procedure that gives him a robotic body made with K-Metal to take out powerful metahumans, especially dictator D'hark Seiid, and is given the codename Metallo. Superman makes an enemy of Lane and the government when he prevents Lane from killing a target that would gotten a few civilians caught in the crossfire.

Lt. Lois Lane - Sam's daughter and former soldier who leaves the army after Sam's transformation into Metallo and becomes a journalist after meeting reporter Clark Kent.

Giganta - Dr. Doris Zeul is a scientist at LexCorp who uses some of Brainiac's knowledge of the Omega Serum and tries to create her own version and gives herself the ability to grow super big which lowers her intelligence at a certain height and after growing too tall she becomes slightly brain dead.

They have an Ultimates DC universe; Earth-One.

Not really. They're just a bunch of unconnected stand-alone universes.

It would be a lot simpler and more effective just to do elseworld or imaginary stories that don't have to adhere to any continuity.

But those don't sell. The Ultimate books occupied a good part of the top 10 for years. Weren't you all about the bottom line?

An imaginary Flash story would sell if they'd publish it as part of the regular Flash title and keep it to a reasonable length.

You know, like they did in the Silver Age.

An ongoing Flash imaginary title, no.

I doubt it. "Unimportant" books don't sell these days.
