Nubia has always been a unique individual, exhibiting strength akin to that of an Amazonian as a baby by pushing over a tree to rescue her neighbor's cat. Despite sharing similar abilities, the world often dismisses her as not being the equivalent of Wonder Woman. Even if she were, it is apparent that they would not welcome her. Whenever Nubia steps in to save the day, she is constantly reminded of how people perceive her as a threat. Her mother's do their utmost to ensure her safety, but Nubia cannot deny the burning fire within her, even if she occasionally feels awkward about it. Despite the potential for negative assumptions.

When Nubia's best friend, Quisha, is threatened by a boy who believes he controls the town, Nubia is willing to risk everything her safety, her home, and her secret crush on the cute kid in English class to become the hero society tells her she is not. 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 rocking it with your squad.
