Description
From critically acclaimed author L.L. McKinney and brought to life with delightful, vivid art by Robyn Smith and Manou Azumi, the highly anticipated sequel, Nubia: Too Real, follows Nubia as she explores her Amazonian identity, learns the importance of self-acceptance, and discovers the enduring power of true friendship!
After a turbulent school year, Nubia is both thrilled and anxious as she embarks on a transformative summer training with the Amazons on Themyscira. Amid the mounting pressure of expectations, she grapples with feeling like an outsider, letting the weight of her self-doubt strain her most important relationships.
Just when she thought her life couldn't get more complicated, her biggest fear threatens the safety of everyone on Paradise Island. Will Nubia rise above the chaos and embrace her true self as the hero she was destined to be?
