Abstract
In this paper, we study the complex structures of complete hyperkähler four-manifolds of infinite topological type arising from the Gibbons-Hawking ansatz. We show that for almost all complex structures in the hyperkähler family, the manifold is biholomorphic to a hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an explicit entire function. For the remaining complex structures, we further prove that the manifold is biholomorphic to the minimal resolution of a singular surface in $\mathbb{C}^3$ under certain conditions. Thus, we partially extend LeBrun's celebrated work to the context of countably many punctures.
