I haven't seen that specific zombie-related canon, but I don't think zombie settings are kind to people who are incapable of running without falling down.

Mental image of (for some reason?) a Thor wandering around killing zombies with a Bell sitting on his shoulders. XD

Hahahahahaha. That's an amusing mental image.

I'd imagine that if the Bell was with Charlie, she'd be okay. Not really sure how'd she do with Renee.

But I'm sure if she had a Thor, she'd probably be the safest anyone can be in that sort of situation. Heh.

It occurs to me that Manly Guys Doing Manly Things' Generic Spacefuture setting has probably been fleshed out enough to work, now. Possibly there'd be too much thematic overlap with the Ender setting, though.

I only started to read, so I don't know much

Is there is a list of fandoms? both used, rejected and pending?

We don't keep a list of the rejected.

I'm not sure why I keep gravitating towards YA fantasy for Bell setting suggestions, but that seems to be the trend. Like, an A Fire Upon the Deep Bell might be interesting, but I'm more eager to suggest, like, a Diadem Bell. Did anyone else read the Diadem books? The system would probably need a lot of reworking to actually make it usable, but the the concept could be fun. Actually, I'm not sure where the boundary between Children's Fantasy and YA fantasy is, but Diadem is probably on it.

Come to think of it, I didn't mean those two examples to be thematic, but they both share in common the "where you are relative to a specific point in space determines how well tech (for A Fire Upon the Deep) or magic (for Diadem) will work for you" conceit. Huh.

It would be useful to avoid repetition, and if you want to show the general theme.

"Nolanverse" covers the entire DC?

Nolanverse is the specific series of three Batman movies directed by Christopher Nolan - Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises.

Okay, just to be sure. Any chance of Supergirl!Bella?

Iris Zero.
An Iris is a special power in someone's eyes that, basically, allows a person to see an Augmented Reality. These abilities range from telling what someone had for dinner to identifying someone's past lives. 27 years ago around 1% of children were born with this power; 5 years later, that began to skyrocket, so that this time the 1% were the children born without it.
It is very Earth-like and you can re-use Bella's typical backstory without much trouble
