Nubia: Real One
Volume
Feb 23, 2021
Nubia has always been a little bit... different. As a baby she showcased Amazon-like strength by pushing over a tree to rescue her neighbor'Aos cat. But despite her having similar abilities, the world has no problem telling her that she'Aos no Wonder Woman. And even if she were, they wouldn'Aot want her. Every time she comes to the rescue, she'Aos reminded of how people see her: as a threat. Her moms do their best to keep her safe, but Nubia can'Aot deny the fire within her, even if she'Aos a little awkward about it sometimes. Even if it means people assume the worst. When Nubia'Aos best friend, Quisha, is threatened by a boy who thinks he owns the town, Nubia will risk it all-her safety, her home, and her crush on that cute kid in English class-to become the hero society tells her she isn'Aot. From the witty and powerful voice behind A Blade So Black, and with endearing and expressive art by Robyn Smith, comes a vital story for today about equality, identity, and kicking it with your squad.
