DC Comics has announced a new digital anthology comic book series titled Truth & Justice which will explore DC’s rich character history.

Set to debut digitally on January 8, 2021, the first three weekly stories will be collected as a 40-page print issue on February 16, 2021.
The first issue will feature a story about Vixen written by Geoffrey Thorne with art by Chris Cross and Jordi Tarragona.
So what’s it about?
Mari McCabe is many things: superhero, model, activist; but can she add god-killer to the list? Vixen teams up with Dr. Mist and Impala of the Global Guardians to face down an ancient deity that’s taken over the body of a scientist investigating powerful magical artifacts. Vixen will need to dig deep and use all the abilities in the animal kingdom to face down this powerful primeval threat!
DC Comics has had success this year launching digital-first series for many weeks when print comics were put on hold. This appears to be a new venture for DC in the digital-first approach to comics storytelling.
