La Borinqueña

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a...geology student? When Brooklyn native Marisol takes a semester abroad in Puerto Rico to study the tropical cave systems, she finds a lot more than she bargained for - a mystical object connects her to the ancient Taíno deities of Puerto Rico, and she's granted a special destiny. Can Nuyorican Marisol truly connect to her heritage and become protector of La Isla del Encanto? How can she use superpowers to face the economic and environmental challenges facing Puerto Rico? And who are the nefarious villains seeking to make La Borinqueñas powers their own? "La Borinqueña has authentic Puerto Rican flavor!" The Washington Post. Written by creator Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez, Illustrated by Emilio Lopez, Sabrina Cintron, and Will Rosado, Colored by Juan Fernandez.
