Western Animation: Mosaic

A direct-to-video animated movie presented by Stan Lee. An aspiring actress, Maggie Nelson, must track down her father, an Interpol agent, who has been taken by members of the underground, special-powered race called the Chameliel. Aided by Mosaic, a Chamelial himself, Maggie searches for him and learns to deal with her own special powers, given to her through a freak accident.

Can be viewed full-length for free on its official web site.

Mosaic provides examples of:

Art Shift: The opening titles have a more graphic style compared to the film itself. The fact that two animation studios were used (AKOM for the opening, Mook DLE for the film proper) shows.
Badass Longcoat: Mosaic
Betty and Veronica: Mosaic vs. Stephen
Expy: Some people have noted that Maggie is an interesting combination of Spider-Man, Mystique, and the Invisible Woman.
- Mosaic himself looks a lot like Angel.
Hair of Gold: Maggie
Heroic Sacrifice: Mosaic ends up taking Manniquin down a cliff with him.
Luke, I Am Your Father: Mosaic is the son of Manniquin, the movie's Big Bad.
Monumental Damage: The Capuchin Crypt. By chipping away at a couple of STONE supports with a staff, no less.
Shout Out: To Spider-Man
- Mosaic's death seems awfully close to Sherlock Holmes and his temporary death.
