Over the years Vanessa has brought voice to some of the biggest heroes & villains of animation - including Wonder Woman on Harley Quinn, Black Canary on Young Justice, The Black Widow on Avengers Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, Poison Ivy on Batman Brave and the Bold, Gamorra on The Guardians of the Galaxy!
