Dare to Burn A Graphic Novel Note from the author: In an attempt to combat the oversaturation of male comic creators and their male protagonists, I present a female super hero written from the perspective of a young woman. Dare to Burn explores the transformation of a reluctant girl into a mighty hero. It questions the duty of a protector and the burden of morality. Light and dark are in opposition as the fate of the world rests on the shoulders of a hero unaware of her impending destiny. Follow her journey as she learns the power of fire and what it means to fulfill a prophecy. A special thank you to the James Millikin Scholar’s program, my excellent advisor: Dr. Ngozi Onuora, my proposal readers, and my friends and family.
