I loved seeing her become more than a hero, but an inspiration to others.

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.

5.0 stars!

I really enjoyed reading this and it's really out of my comfort zone! It's about a Black teenaged girl that is balancing her superpowers and wanting to live a normal life. It weaves in information about police brutality, school shootings, bullying, verbal and physical abuse and racism...all into one short graphic novel. I would definitely encourage others to read it and give it a chance!
