The CW is all in on the superhero genre. First Arrow, now The Flash and creeping up in the near future an adaptation of Paul Ernst 1937 pulp character The Avenger.
The
original character in The Avenger was Richard Benson, who tries to avenge the
death of his family. In this new series the story will be updated and the
character changed. No longer Richard Benson, but his daughter Alice Benson, "a
young woman who, in the wake of her parents’ murder, discovers she possesses a
superpower as a result of genetic bio-hacking which allows her to transform her
appearance at will. Alice will use her face-altering talents to investigate the
mystery of her parents’ deaths and uncover the origins of her strange
ability."
The
show will be written by Warehouse 13’s Deric Hughes and Benjamin Raab.
