Nubia Real One is the beginning of a series about a badass teen with super hero powers. It tackles many, too many, serious issues: racism, sexism, sex assault, school shootings, police brutality against minorities, queerness (no big deal she had 2 moms), domestic violence, etc. Lots of references about how to get help in the back. Book was entertaining, comedic and sad at times, and had all too real messages. “Black and brown kids are not seen as kids”, “Scared while black is a death sentence” <--true statements that unfortunately people need to prepare their kids for. This is a good book to make a black teen read and discuss with them.  I didn’t like some of the graphics because it made the black people appear white.  Also, the depiction of Nubia was inconsistent in whether she was an introvert or an extrovert. She’s kinda shy and sheltered, then she busting out in a sexy outfit and heels to go to her first party. Overall, a great story that I enjoyed, especially when she threw an ATM at someone. Worth picking up the sequels.
