Move over Flash, Stargirl and Superman & Lois. This week The CW adds another superhero to its ever-expanding DC Comics universe with the introduction of Naomi. Based on the comic by Brian Michael Bendis and David F. Walker, and executive produced by Ava DuVernay and Jill Blankenship, Naomi follows the story of young comic book nerd (and self-confessed Superman aficionado) Naomi, who, following a supernatural event in her hometown of Port Oswego, sets out to uncover its origins. Little does she know how closely her adoptive heritage is linked to the event. What begins as a journey of curious investigation soon blossoms into one of life-changing self-discovery as dormant superpowers she possesses begin to emerge.
