TT’s new superhero is a Jumbie The
character of Giselle Anderson, right, and her superhero alter ego Jumbie.
BACK in 2017 when husband/wife animation team Everard McBain and Dixie-Ann Archer-McBain pitched their science-fiction superhero series, Celflux, for a panel at the annual Animae Caribe festival, one of the judges said their concept trailer sounded too foreign and should have Trinidadian voices. And while McBain did not agree with having local voices simply for the sake of doing so, the comment inspired him to revisit his plan to create a TT hero. And thus, the character of Jumbie was born.
