Loved it, no trans men but a lot of other kinds of representation throughout, and these dc pride books are always an absolute joy to read beyond what I can put into words.

There's a few peaks and valleys of quality in here, but Kevin Conroy wrote an Everest.

Filled to the brim with beautiful queer stories, from different walks in life and different stages in their journeys. The story of Green Arrow was especially touching for me.

I really loved this - such a range of comics and representation. Included some of my faves like Batwoman, Harley and Ivy, along with characters I haven’t read about before. 

The only thing I felt was missing was a bit more context. It went straight from comic to comic without any title pages, explanations of where the story occurred within the wider universe, or how it linked to the Pride theme. Even if it was just a title page at the start of the comic it would’ve been so much easier to research the characters that were new to me.

Amazing otherwise though 😊
