The Mary Sue reports the animated series will take place in the same universe as television's Arrow and The Flash, and Vixen will be accompanied by cameos of the key characters from the live-action series, including Stephen Amell, Grant Gustin, Emily Bett Rickards, and Carlos Valdes.
Vixen - whose actual name is Mari McCabe - is a superhero whose powers are granted to her by the Tantu Totem she inherited from her parents. Using the Totem, Vixen is able to adopt the abilities of any animal, be it flight, super strength, speed, and others. The short animated series is expected to stream online sometime this summer.
