For the Comic Lover
La Borinquena
For the graphic novel lover comes La Borinquena. Created by Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez, this graphic novel series follows the adventures of Marisol Rios De La Luz, a Columbia University undergrad student who gains super powers on an archeological visit to her native Puerto Rico. As you know with great power comes great responsibility! So, Marisol takes on the mantle of La Borinquena defending Puerto Rico from anything or anyone who may do it harm. The most recent series follows La Borinquena as she teams with Wonder Woman to help rebuild Puerto Rico in the wake of Hurricane Maria. Aptly entitled “Ricanstruction”.
