Beginning this June DC will publish a series of projects featuring the DC Universe's LGBTQIA+ characters. 

DC Pride #1 is an 80-page anthology special on sale June 8 that will feature "LGBTQIA+ characters from all corners of DC’s ever-expanding Universe, including cameos by fan favorites Batwoman, Renee Montoya, Alan Scott, Midnighter, Apollo, Extraño, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Constantine, and more."

The creative teams, and the characters featured in their stories include:

The Dreamer story will be the DC comic book debut of the trans woman superhero character that originated on the CW's Supergirl and will be written by  Nicole Maines, the actor who plays Nia Nal/Dreamer on Supergirl.

DC Pride #1 will include full-page profiles of DCTV’s LGBTQIA+ characters and the actors who play them.

Finally, DC Pride will feature as forward by Marc Andreyko (Love is Love), pin-ups by artists Kris Anka, Sophie Campbell, Mildred Louis, Travis Moore, Nick Robles, and Kevin Wada, "with more surprises to come!"
