Diva Moment... Nubia

I'm obsessed with Nubia, Wonder Woman's real Black sister.

This was the panel that sent me into a queer geek frenzy back in the day.

It's from the Super Friends comic book, issue 25. The issue came out in 1979, but I didn't see it until 1982.
Although there are issues with this particular Nubia, I believe DC had good intentions. I hope we will see another powerful/maybe more challenging version of her soon.

    Ooohh Child it sounds like Wondy almost want to call her the n-word. "No one speaks to me in that tone." Well excuse me and your Black sister!

    I remember when you posted a commercial for the Nubia and Wonder Woman dolls. Little black girls finally get a doll and she's evil...sigh.
