Barbara Minerva (voiced by Sheryl Lee Ralph) was a scientist who ran out of money, and to continue the research, she used herself as a test subject. It turned her into a half cat. She wanted to undo what she had done to herself, but again the money was an issue, so she turned to crime.

She answered Lex Luthor's ad for a group of villains to destroy the Justice League. The money offered was worth it, and Cheetah joined the group. They staged a hostage situation where Cheetah was playing the part of the hostage. Although the plan was well thought out, villains still lost the first confrontation. Next, they seized on an opportunity and captured Batman. When Cheetah was left alone to watch Batman, she told him her origin, and how she saw herself as a freak. Batman told her that he saw a determined woman who was willing to lose everything for a cause she believes in. They then share a kiss. Using Batman's codes, they planted a bomb on JLA's space station, but Cheetah didn't feel right about that. When the bomb exploded outside the station, Lex learned that they had a traitor in their midst. Viewing a tape of the holding cell, the villains witness the kiss between Cheetah and Batman. Lex ordered Solomon Grundy to take care of her and he dragged her out of the room. Grundy and Cheetah were arrested before he could hurt her.

Cheetah later joined Gorilla Grodd's Secret Society of Super Villains. She wasn't a big part in the super villain team though; she was there mainly for the protection they offered from heroes. After Lex Luthor took over the Society and went into space with the Secret Society's headquarters, Cheetah stood by his side even after Grodd tried to regain control. She survived the resurrection of Darkseid and then helped the heroes hold off his invasion of Earth.
