Desiree Rodriguez and Marco Lopez are two very passionate members of the comic community and proud of their Puerto Rican heritage. Together, they are two of the editors of the upcoming comic anthology from Lion Forge, "Puerto Rico Strong", benefitting the recovery from the recent Hurricane Maria. They share stories of the resilience of people on the island, what differentiates Puerto Rican comic characters from other Latinx representation, using comics as a tool of empathy and the inspiration of George Perez. The book is available for pre-order now through Amazon and your local comic shop as well as our sponsors, www.dcbservice.com.
