This is for the super hero and haters alike! Even though Nubia is a super, she’s also just a teenage girl and in that is she incredibly relatable.

Literally fabulous! I cried and laughed and screamed and was so angry! Fucking white boys!!! This was well written and had amazing drawings. It is very focused on black trauma and the issues with police while also following the story of a young girl and her superpowers.

I loved this and I really hope there's a sequel. This is the first version of DC's Nubia that I've ever read before. I've heard that previous iterations of her character made her pretty one-dimensional and secondary to Diana, so I'm glad this imagining didn't follow suit. It was a lot more intense than I imagined it would be. I loved the art and the narrative overall.
