With Pride month fast approaching, DC Comics has released details and previews for Justice League: Dream Girls – A DC Pride Event, starring heroes Galaxy and Dreamer, first looks at the stack of variant covers adorning DC titles this June, Justice League Intergalactic Special, the YA graphic novel Galaxy: As the World Falls Down, and more.

This year, Galaxy and Dreamer are the featured characters and in a big way, with Galaxy: As the World Falls Down, the lynchpin title. As explained by DC editor Andrea Shea:

“In so many ways, 2026 is the culmination of the last five years — what we’ve always been building toward: a series of stories that take place in the heart of DC continuity and serve as the next chapters for some of our most beloved characters.”

Check ’em all out below:

Galaxy: As the World Falls Down

Writer: Jadzia Axelrod

Artists: Rye Hickman

Letterer: Jodie Troutman

“Galaxy returns in Galaxy: As the World Falls Down, the highly anticipated sequel to the acclaimed YA graphic novel Galaxy: The Prettiest Star. Written by Jadzia Axelrod with art and color by Rye Hickman and lettering by Jodie Troutman, this new graphic novel continues Taylor Barzelay’s journey as she confronts the alien threat of the Vane, questions her place on Earth, and further solidifies her friendship with Nia Nal, also known as Dreamer.”

Justice League Intergalactic Special #1

Writers: Jadzia Axelrod, Nicole Maines

Artists: Travis Moore

Colourist: Tamra Bonvillain

Letterer: Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou

“Before Galaxy’s sophomore graphic novel arrives, readers will finally see Galaxy and Dreamer team up for the first time … This one-shot continues Dreamer’s journey following the events of Absolute Power and Secret Six, and picks up on Galaxy’s adventures in heroism following her recurring role in Hawkgirl. Galaxy is now a card-carrying member of the Justice League, bridging DC’s YA and mainline universes.

In this adventure, the planet Naltor and the Green Lanterns who protect it fall under the spell of the Witch Queen, who harnesses the world’s dream energy in a bid to expand her reach far beyond its orbit. Star Sapphire assembles a team of Justice Leaguers to liberate the planet, but the mission quickly spirals. Green Arrow wants nothing to do with space, Adam Strange’s ship is attacked before it even reaches orbit … and Galaxy has invited Dreamer aboard the mission without telling anyone. Dreamer’s visions hint at disaster from the very start!

When they find each other, Galaxy and Dreamer are on completely opposite ends of the Super Hero spectrum. While Galaxy has been welcomed into the Justice League where she’s a shining new up-and-comer, Dreamer is left adrift in the aftermath of the mistakes that have branded her (as far as the League is concerned) a criminal…“

Justice League: Dream Girls — A DC Pride Event

Writers: Nicole Maines and Jadzia Axelrod

Artists: Nicola Scott, J. Bone, Brandt&Stein, Stephen Sadowski, Vincent Cecil, Mikel Janín, Rosi Kämpe, and others.

“The story begins in the aftermath of Justice League Intergalactic Special, when Dreamer and Galaxy suddenly awaken on Themyscira, living out an idyllic fantasy as princess and champion of the Amazons. Their confusion deepens when a mysterious stranger washes ashore insisting that Dreamer must leave the paradise she’s always dreamed of to save the world, and the dreamlike landscape around them begins to shift in ways that feel both familiar and deeply wrong.

The threat behind the shifting dreamscape is the Key, a long-standing Justice League adversary whose ability to manipulate perception and hunger for control over dreamspace make him a uniquely dangerous opponent for Dreamer. The world he’s building offers her a version of heroism that feels easier to embrace than the imperfect reality she left behind, and Dreamer fears that those imperfections are all she is … whereas Galaxy, eager to prove herself to the League, believes she can keep her imperfections hidden.

In this series, Dreamer is battling, in many ways, her will to go on. With being a hero, with life at all. She’s nothing like the hero she set out to be, and after everything, she (ironically) can’t see a future for herself. So, she needs her closest friend to remind her, even if Dreamer didn’t exactly ask for her help. As the Key tightens his hold, Galaxy fights her way through the dreamworld to pull her friend back from the brink. Her ability to see through the Key’s illusions makes her a threat he’s desperate to expel. The series blends cosmic action, emotional stakes, and a story about identity, legacy, and the strength of a friendship tested by forces determined to tear it apart. Dream Girls represents the next step in DC’s Pride publishing, bringing LGBTQIA+ heroes into the center of a major, continuity-driven Justice League story that unfolds across the month of June.”

Each issue of Justice League: Dream Girls — A DC Pride Event will also includes an all-new eight-page back-up story. Creators Greg Rucka and Claire Roe‘s story features Batwoman in Dream Girls #1, Morgan Hampton, Steven Underwood, and Alitha Martinez tell a tale of the Green Lantern Corps in Dream Girls #2, and G. Willow Wilson and Maria Llovet spotlight Poison Ivy in Dream Girls #3. And finally, a personal story by Klaus Janson will appear in Dream Girls #4.

Finally, there’s also DC Pride: The Heart Wants, a hardcover collection of last year’s DC Pride one-shot and additional stories. The book features stories from Tim Sheridan, Vita Ayala, Jude Ellison S. Doyle, Maya Houston, Sam Maggs, Josh Trujillo, Jenny Blake, and more, with art by Emilio Pilliu, Skylar Patridge, A.L. Kaplan, Max Sarin, Sara Soler Ester, Vincent Cecil, Alex Moore, and more.
