What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Birds Of Prey?

1. Vixen

Penguin Birds of Prey
DC Comics

Our last member is a minor character in the books, but still one worth mentioning.

Mari Jiwe is the orphaned daughter of an African couple who were murdered by poachers. Raised by the priest of a small village, Mari is forced to flee to America as a young woman when her adopted father is murdered by his brother for the ancient and powerful Tantu Totem. After a few years living in America as supermodel Mari Mcabe, she eventually returned to Africa to take back her birthright from her uncle, later learning that the totem gives her the power to adopt the physical capabilities of any animal, insect, fish etc. on the planet.

Vixen was a very minor character in the Birds of Prey books, mainly appearing in a single story arc involving an evil cult that wanted to make an army of super powered cultists. And even then, the story was mostly about Huntress. Which is a shame because Vixen is a really cool character and hopefully future Birds of Prey stories will feature her in a starring role.
