Lupe is just your average, insecure, well-meaning, occasionally cranky teenage girl whose life is completely turned upside down when she discovers she has superpowers at her quinceañera. Her quince powers only last as long as she¿s fifteen, so over the course of this rollercoaster year, we follow the adventures of Lupe as she figures out what it really means to be a hero.

Quince

 Bruna Acioly Leão

This was a sweet and fun comic about a girl who receive magical superpowers the day of her quinces and her tough Abuela begins training her to be a superhero.

Throughout the comic Lupe learns that superpowers are hard and that because she was given these powers she has a responsibility to help the world with them. The whole thing is a beautiful metaphor on growing up and on how helping others doesn't have to be a huge battle of good vs. evil, but instead a constant struggle that we all have to face to do better.

Sometimes just being willing to help is the most heroic thing that we can do.
