When her connection to the dreamscape is suddenly cut off and she’s thrust back into reality on the Watchtower, she finds herself at the center of an explosive debate over the status of her Justice League membership… during which a secret from her last mission is brought to light. Meanwhile, the Key reshapes the dreamscape to give Dreamer the one thing she’s always truly wanted…

Justice League: Dream Girls – A DC Pride Event #2

(W) Jadzia Axelrod, Nicole Maines, Morgan Hampton, Steven Underwood (A) Ro Stein, Ted Brandt, Stephen Sadowski, Norm Rapmund, Dan Jurgens, Vincent Cecil, Joe Quinones, Alitha Martinez

DC’S AWARD-WINNING PRIDE CELEBRATION IS BACK IN AN ALL-NEW FORMAT! The Key was once a villain who could infect the dreams of even the most powerful heroes through complex chemical cocktails. Now, in Dreamer, he sees a way to control the dreamscape for real — if he can craft a fantasy compelling enough to make her surrender to him. If only Dreamer’s best friend Galaxy didn’t keep interfering! How did she even get into the dreamworld, anyway? No matter. When you push the right buttons, even the strongest friendship can be shattered…

DC’S AWARD-WINNING PRIDE CELEBRATION IS BACK IN AN ALL-NEW FORMAT! Fresh off the events of Justice League Intergalactic Special #1, Dreamer and Galaxy suddenly awaken on the island of Themyscira… living their best lives as princess and champion of the Amazons! But wait — weren’t they just having a blowout friendship fight on the Watchtower, right in front of half the League? And who’s this mysterious man that just washed up on their shores, insisting Dreamer leave paradise with him to save the world? And why does this heroic origin story and its increasingly strange and shifting landscape feel both familiar and wrong all at once? It’s almost like… they’re lost in a dream?

32 Hours. One Wedding. Total Mayhem. Meet the cast of Worst Man

Posted on by

Ahead of Worst Man’s release this August, it is time to meet the cast. Here are some of the unforgettable characters at the heart of this sun-soaked chaos!

Set against a luxury island wedding where nothing goes to plan, the story brings together a wildly entertaining ensemble — each with their own secrets, motives, and complicated ties to the couple. Check out a snapshot of some of the key players.

Meet the wedding party:

  • Radcliffe Raleigh–the Worst Man, a charming relationship-ruiner with principles and not enough sleep
  • Chris Kafka–the Best Man and best friend of the Groom, a romantic, a fan of control, and a man who desperately wants his friends to have the wedding they deserve
  • Battista Lovely–the Groom, an anxious, superstitious man who is as much motivated byfear as love
  • Natsuko Nevis–grouchy data broker, as well as Rad’s best friend and occasional accomplice
  • Domino McElligott–the Bride, a shy, but kind-hearted, woman very beaten down by her mother
  • Valentina McElligott–the mother of the Bride, a controlling and manipulative mother andall-around evil billionaire
  • Merritt Tilford-McElligott–the sister of the Bride, and largely estranged from the family thanks to beefing with their mother
  • Chester Lovely–the father of the Groom, Dad Vibes given human form
  • Francesca Lovely–the mother of the Groom and, possibly more importantly, mother to Templeton Dandelion Meriweather Lovely
  • Galatea Tilford–wife to Merritt, supportive to a fault and far too obsessed with true crime podcasts
  • Kamilah Kimberlite–the Maid of Honour, thecentre of every stage she’s on
  • Rayna Rosales–the other friend of the Bride, almost as good at being a friend as she is a hypochondriac
  • Waldo Honeychurch–cousin of the Bride, a well-meaning all-around human disaster

By Brandt&Stein, Worst Man is out August 25, 2026.

Dead Teenagers #1

(W)  Jude Ellison S. Doyle (A) Caitlin Yarsky 

Since 1997, five friends have been trapped in the ultimate nightmare as a mysterious entity forces them to relive their first prom night over and over again… and re-kills them in new and increasingly insane ways each time. They dress up. They party. They make out. And no matter what they try to change, they always die… until now. Something is about to break the cycle that has kept J.T., Ryder, Brandy, and their group of friends locked in a bizarre purgatory beyond all understanding… but what they find on the other side will be the most disturbing revelation of all.

Disney Villains: Gaston #1

Writers: Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente
Artist: Milena Ciccarello
Covers: Lesley “Leirix” Li (A), Ted Brandt, Ro Stein (B), Milena Ciccarello (C), Will Robson (D)
FC | All Cardstock Covers | 32 pages | Adventure | $4.99 | Teen

AT LAST — A SERIES WORTHY OF THE NAME GASTON! The unfairly maligned antagonist of Beauty and the Beast will be the first to tell you that he’s the greatest tracker in the land, a fact that has been confirmed by his totally unbiased sidekick, LeFou — and who would know better than these two fine, upstanding citizens? So when a nobleman offers a sizable reward for the return of his runaway horse, Gaston pursues the escaping steed with a single-minded focus — directly into the king’s private hunting grounds! Arrested for trespassing, Gaston faces a long stay in the royal lock-up — except that his obviously superior abilities impress the king’s wily advisor, the Comte du Soufflé, who has a dangerous mission that only someone as unthinkingly brave as the great Gaston would ever contemplate taking on. If he succeeds, he’ll be free to go — but when he finds out what he’s up against, prison might seem like the safer bet! Highly animated authors GREG PAK (Lilo & Stitch) and FRED VAN LENTE (Conan the Avenger) join forces with artiste extraordinaire MILENA CICCARELLO to finally bring readers the tale that they have surely been clamoring for with Disney Villains: Gaston — featuring appropriately adoring covers courtesy of CICCARELLO, LESLEY “LEIRIX” LI, TED BRANDT & RO STEIN, and WILL ROBSON!

DC with some trepidation has announced MAD About DC, a 64-page one-shot arriving April 1, 2026. Yes, April 1. And no, this isn’t a prank—unless you count letting Chip Zdarsky run this thing as its Guest Editor a prank on the DC Universe itself. You’d have to ask Chip.

Sanapo, Mark Russell, Steve Lieber, Jeff Parker, Lukas Ketner, Gerry Duggan, Scott Aukerman, Mitch Gerads, Joanne Starer, Joe Quinones, Scott Snyder, Josh Williamson, Deniz Camp, Gail Simone, Colleen Doran, Joe Kelly, Kelly Sue DeConnick, Valentine De Landro, Ryan North, Erica Henderson, Tom Taylor, Bruno Redondo, Mariko Tamaki, Riley Rossmo, Al Ewing, PJ Holden, Shannon Wheeler, Leah Williams, Isaac Goodhart, Cody Ziglar, Daniele Di Nicuolo, Daniel Kibblesmith, Brandt&Stein, Casey Gilly, J. Bone, Skottie Young, Andrew Wheeler, Stephen Byrne, Colleen Coover, Benjamin Errett, Matt Fraction, Kagan McLeod, Lee Gatlin, Joseph Starkey, Graham Roumieu…and more?!

Whether you’re a lifelong MAD Magazine fan, a DC diehard, or simply someone who enjoys watching respected creators make questionable choices, MAD About DC promises to fulfill your every comic book dream…or at least three or four of them.

MAD About DC goes on sale April 1, 2026, wherever comics are sold. No whoopee cushions included. The issue features a main cover by Dan “MAD About Gluten Labeling Because It Should Actually Be Clearer or Else What’s the Point” Panosian ($7.99 US), cardstock variants by Simon Bisley and Chip Zdarsky ($8.99 US), and a foil variant by Panosian ($10.99 US).

HELL IS THE ‘90s — THERE’S NO ESCAPING HIGH SCHOOL! This spring, Oni Press presents Dead Teenagers #1, a 90-obsessed horror escapade about prom night ‘97 – and five friends who have been living and dying inside it ever since – a from GLAAD Award-nominated writer Jude Ellison S.
