I wonder if they will finally embrace Diana's bisexuality (first gay kiss in canon?)

This is still her greatest kiss, eveb though it comes from a terrible elseworld story

Nubia is queer and Yara Flor is bisexual. I think DC will use them as LGBTQ representation going forward instead of Diana.

Is Yara bisexual? I thought she's heterosexual or at least her sexuality hasn't been confirmed so far.

As Scarecrow readies his forces for the big bat, war erupts on every floor of the building between the Penguin's thugs, the Party Crashers, the murderous Arkham inmates, and an overwhelmed Bat-Family who's struggling to get everyone out alive! Will the return of the bat be enough to turn the tide to victory...or does another X factor lurk in the battle that could save the day?"

Catwoman #41: notice how Bruce's absence is emphasized in the solicit, lol

https://aiptcomics.com/2022/03/11/dc...w-catwoman-41/

"With Batman out of the picture, Catwoman would be wise to remember that there are more than bats in Gotham’s belfries. Speaking of bats, Onyx returns to her home city to bat cleanup and make sure Catwoman’s not letting any strays into her city…and with no big Bat in the shadows, those pesky no-killing rules are off the table. Let’s see if Catwoman and Onyx can agree on a target…"

Of all the amazing Pride covers, this one by Derek Charm for Action Comics #1044 is my favorite

[ZuLuLu]

DC Pride: Tim Drake Special #1 - Travis Moore Variant

[ZuLuLu]

Superman: Son of Kal-El #12 Pride variant by David Talaski.



Nubia: Queen of the Amazons #1- Pride variant by Kevin Wada

[J. D. Guy]

DC Pride: Tim Drake Special #1 - Travis Moore Variant

Superman: Son of Kal-El #12 Pride variant by David Talaski.



Nubia: Queen of the Amazons #1- Pride variant by Kevin Wada

Okay, I'm actually liking these!

And I'm glad we getting covers that focus only on the actually queer characters meant to be celebrated. (So no Bruce taking center focus or queerbaiting with Nightwing suggestively posing with a rainbow flag.)

[Primal Slayer]

DC Pride: Tim Drake Special #1 - Travis Moore Variant

It took pride to get Tim Drage a special? Oh DC....cute pic though.

I hope that the Teen Justice mini will end with Jess being in at least a close approximation of their Future State Flash suit. That was a great suit
