Now, she’s joining the comics universe that I have loved so dearly since I was 8 years old, in a story written by the actress who brings her to life on TV, Nicole Maines. Supergirl’s Dreamer has been an incredibly big part of my career, from my first sets of TV show interviews to some incredibly important episodes of television that I’ve had the privilege to write about. To top it off, the anthology is introducing something incredibly special to me in particular into the DC Universe. Elevating queer voices to tell queer stories is something that is needed more often in comics, and I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited for an anthology. Leading the way for a big Pride campaign is DC Pride #1, an anthology focusing on both queer creators and queer characters.Īfter doing some research, it looks like every writer, penciler, and inker working on stories for this anthology are some flavor of LGBT, which is an absolutely wonderful part of this announcement. This morning DC Comics announced their Pride Month plans and honestly it’s the biggest indication yet that we are definitely out of the Dan DiDio and Bob Harras era of the publisher. This week we have the opposite story, in which I saw a press release and had to write about it because I’m overwhelmed with joy and a feeling of representation that is a rarity in comics. So last week, I wrote up a press release and was not very kind about it.
