DC has announced a new six-issue All In comic book miniseries by writer Joanne Starer and artist Stephen Byrne, Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over, spinning out from the pages of Absolute Power and the DC All In Special. Fire and Ice, DC’s hottest (and coldest) leading ladies, are back! But they’re not exactly themselves!
Prior to Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over launching in April, as seen in the pages of DC’s Absolute Power, Fire and Ice had finally achieved what Fire always wanted: the dynamic duo made a glorious return to the ranks of the Justice League—and during a major world crisis, no less! But when the crisis was overcome, the smoke had cleared, and all the superpowers were restored, Ice found herself shooting off uncontrollable spurts of fire, and Fire had ice crystals forming at her fingertips. Oops!
With their powers switched and no solution in sight, Fire and Ice tuck tail and regroup in Smallville, where they realize their predicament makes them something worse than has-been heroes: menaces to the local community they’ve come to love. But Fire’s always got a plan, no matter how shortsighted! And when she goes digging around in Zatanna’s bag of tricks for a quick fix in the middle of karaoke night…what could possibly go wrong? Aside from, y’know, everything. Again.
Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville writer Joanne Starer teams up with fan-favorite artist Stephen Byrne, returning Fire and Ice to Kansas for another raucous romp full of heart and humor in the midst of their own personal hell! Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over#1 will publish on April 9 with a main cover by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson and variant covers by David Nakayama, Jeff Dékal, and Kevin Wada (1:25).

But when Nia, a trans girl, starts having visions of the future, she must suppress her powers to protect her relationship with her sister.
Soon Nia’s dreams become impossible to ignore, and she has no choice but to distance herself as she navigates her new reality. Taking off for Metropolis, Nia is quickly swept up in the bustling city and, guided by her dreams, connects with a group of queer girls who feel more like sisters than her own. As Nia starts to discover her powers may be more than just a burden, she’s given a choice: accept her new responsibility as a Seer or give it all up for a chance at normalcy.

What Maceo felt for Mezzy turns to terror as he doubts if he ever knew her in the first place, and even begins to fear the woman he once loved.
The chasm between them grows-quite literally-as Golgonooza’s foundation crumbles and bubbles with a strange poison gas… and makes their communication even more alien as they’re presented with a tragic choice that should hurt more than it does…
