A conquistador, Francisco Cortes, interrupts a ritual in the jungles of South America and encounters the powerful Goddess – Pachamama. Back in Spain years later, his young daughter, Aluna, would rather spend her time fencing with her friend Antonio than take dancing lessons. When Francisco gives Aluna a strange green gemstone, she discovers that she has supernatural strength. But is this a blessing or a curse?
Paula Garces co-created a Latina Superhero named Aluna. She first appeared in her own Comic Book Titled ALUNA at the San Deigo Comic Con in 2011 with rave reviews. Because of her successful release, we licensed her out to the online game “Heroes of Newerth” where up to today, ALUNA is being chosen for play over 90k a day.
