    Probably for the same reason that Constantine barely gets any love either. DC under the impression that the Vertigo/Wildstorm characters are too dark to be the faces of their Pride stories.

    The problem is that's where the most popular of their adult male LGBTQ+ characters come from. Keeping those characters out gives the club a "Only ladies and twinks" vibe.

    I’m assuming because they and Natasha Irons are off world with Clark in an ongoing story.

    I’m sorry do they mean Kevin Conroy voice of Batman?

    Edit: Yes in fact they very much do mean THAT Kevin Conroy

    Yay for Kevin DC Legend! Pumped that Pride is part of his towering legacy.

    Also forgot that New 52 had introduced an intersex/trans Shining Knight. More of Ystin please.

    Does anyone want to play guess the main characters based on the short story titles?

    Pride Preview with some images from the stories.

    The Batgirl story looks like it has Cass so I wonder if they're going to confirm anything for her.

    Looks like Damians' has Connor Hawke so they're going to finally confirm he's ace?

    Seeing yourself in comic books, though, in your favorite superheroes, is especially powerful. It tells us that not only are there other people like us out there (something that this young trans girl growing up in rural Maine desperately needed), but that they stand alongside the very best of us.

    They are the best of us.

    Superheroes set the bar and they set it high. Because if you can be a superhero, you can be anything.

    The Batgirl story looks like it has Cass so I wonder if they're going to confirm anything for her.

    Looks like Damians' has Connor Hawke so they're going to finally confirm he's ace?
    TWO popular Batfamily members coming out at once? That could be seismic.

    I'm pretty sure the girl in the Batgirls story is Alysia Yeoh, Babs friend and a transgender woman (who's going to appear in the Batgirls movie as well)

    Nicole Maines literally grew up in Maine ?

    Now that you mention it...She and Cass both have short hair, although I don't think the look in the art matches either of their hairstyles. But it might be more likely than Cass.

    (Is Alysia finally going to find out Babs is Batgirl?).

    Huh? Connor Hawke is not a Bat family member, he’s an Arrow family member.

    And I believe that’s not Cass, that’s Alysia Yeoh, Babs’ friend who is trans.

    Holy shit, Conroy.

    Also, someone remembered Ystin. This may be pretty cool. Hoping it's great.

    Can Supergirl show fans tell me who is Galaxy?
    She’s in the pinup with Dreamer from the show.
