DC Pride: The Heart Wants

The Eisner, Ringo, and GLAAD award-winning DC Pride celebrates its fifth anniversary with an all-new anthology in an all-new format, featuring stories that celebrate community when it's needed most!

Contributors to DC Pride 2025 include writers Tim Sheridan, Vita Ayala, Josh Trujillo, Sam Maggs, Maya Houston, and Jude Ellison S. Doyle, and artists Emilio Pilliu, Skylar Patridge, A.L. Kaplan, and Vincent Cecil.

When a 100-year-old queer speakeasy-turned-bar-turned-restaurant-and-community-space in Gotham announces that it will soon be closing its doors, generations of patrons come to pay their respects--including Alan Scott, the Green Lantern.

After all, this is the place where he and his first love, Johnny Ladd, long ago carved their names into the basement wall before it all went to hell...and a love lost is never a love forgotten.

But they weren't the only ones to put their names on the wall over the years, and suddenly queer heroes, villains, and civilians alike from across the DCU--the Question, Midnighter and Apollo, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern Jo Mullein, Bunker, Connor Hawke, and Blue Snowman among them--find themselves spirited away to a strange alternate dimension that seems to provide everything they could possibly want...but at what cost?

In this story of interweaving narratives, the vanished will need to unite if they hope to escape that which ensnares them in this triumphant and timely story of community amid chaos!
