A presença negra nas histórias em quadrinhos nacionais é fruto de uma evolução de valores estéticos e morais que se desenvolveu ao longo de anos na produção cultural. Com a Turma da Mônica, obra de vida do quadrinista Mauricio de Sousa, não foi diferente. Atualmente, suas personagens são uma referência no imaginário infantojuvenil, além de ilustrarem uma parte significativa da economia criativa brasileira. No que diz respeito à representatividade negra, fundamental na construção do respeito à diversidade étnica, Os donos da rua: representatividade racial e as transformações do protagonismo negro no universo Turma da Mônica busca compreender, dentro de um contexto mercadológico, como se deu a transição da presença negra nos produtos editoriais da Mauricio de Sousa Produções de uma posição secundária para protagonista. Afinal, o que se passa nas revistas da Turma da Mônica? A obra é um "sucessor espiritual" de Panther is the New Black: representação e cultura na comunicação do filme Pantera Negra, publicado em 2019.
Uma viagem pacífica à Amazônia se torna a árdua fuga de uma terra onde ciborgues são criados para se tornarem os filhos perfeitos da humanidade.

Fátima Ferreira traz ainda uma Homenagem a Ariano Suassuna, com uma compilação lúdica das peripécias que marcaram a vida do dramaturgo.
