Vixen
Created by Marc Guggenheim
On CW seed
A brisk animated superhero origin story grounded in personal trauma and African heritage, balancing action momentum with the melancholy of loss.
Originally from Africa, Mari McGabe's parents were killed by local greed, corruption and wanton violence. But the orphaned Marl refuses to succumb to the terrors surrounding her. Inheriting her family's Tantu Totem, Mari can access the powers of animals - anything from the super-strength of a gorilla to the speed of a cheetah. As Vixen she fights valiantly to protect the world from threats like those that claimed her family.
