Bad Dream: A Dreamer Story by Nicole Maines and Rye Hickman. Cover by Hickman. Out in February 2024.

"Dreamer’s origin story has finally arrived, featuring characters from Galaxy: The Prettiest Star in DC’s first YA crossover!! Nia Nal’s spent her whole life taking a back seat to her older sister, Maeve, who’s expected to inherit their mother’s Naltorian powers—the ability to see the future through dreams. But when Nia starts having visions of the future, she must suppress her powers to protect her relationship with her sister. There’s only one problem: Nia can’t stay awake forever… From actress, activist, and writer Nicole Maines, who originated the role of Dreamer — the first trans superhero on TV — and artist Rye Hickman comes the highly anticipated origin story of a girl who must accept her destiny to discover she’s more powerful than she could ever dream of."

This is my list of a potential candidates I would like to see in a Teen Titans team:

Crush, daughter of Lobo. Half alien half human, full chaotic.

Tefé Holland, daughter of Swamp Thing. Super powerful super teen angst.

Anita Fite/Empress (I just need her to return somewhere in DC)

Harper Row/Blue Bird. Much more original bat choice than adding the same Robin or Batgirl again.

Galaxy, an alien superhero. She's such a cool character I hope she'll get more explored.

Alysia Yeoh/Batgirl. (She was originally supposed to be Batgirl. DC I beg you to go back to that storyline and make it happen).

Connor Hawk/Green Arrow. I think he would make a great team leader.

Static Shock (no actual reason I just think it would be cool to see him).

The Aerie. I know the wiki considers them terrorist but they are just an extremist activist. Yes they kill people but they mostly fight currapt politicians and bad people. They are so cool and I think they would get along well in a team.

(and Bette Kane might be a nice touch to add as well, same reason as Anita).

Edit: forgot Xanthe, a nonbinary magician (sort of). I definitely want them on the team as well! They're so cool.

Unconventiona list? Yes. Am I completely delirious and daydreaming? Absolutely. But this are my top choices of characters I think would be interesting to see in a Teen Titans team.

DC please give them more comics I am dying here.

5 reasons you, a sapphic person, should read Hawkgirl (2023):

Reason #1: g...girls.

Kendra is very tall and very cut and in spite of this is an adorkable mess who feels that she has to cut short her meetup with a sidecut-bearing college buddy because she feels inadequate (in spite of being a reincarnated heroine from the dawn of time and a former Justice Leaguer)

Reason #2: Kendra is just that cool.

She has Batman on speed-dial.

Reason #3: Galaxy!

The rest of the cast are a wlw couple including transbian superheroine Galaxy and her gorgeous girlfriend Kat. Galaxy is a transforming space princess with a talking not-actually-a-dog guardian and is basically the trans magical girl you needed as a kid.

Reason #4: Yiff?

The new villainess, Vulpecula, is an evil magic(?) werefox vixen with sinister plans. Look at those hands. Tell me you aren't imagining her running those claws across your skin.

Reason #5: Planet X

Issue 2 is going to introduce Metropolis's biggest (and first canon) gay bar.

It's been really wonderful seeing other artists interpret @vashtaylor'sindelible original conception of Galaxy in GALAXY:THE PRETTIEST STAR, from Amancay Nahuelpan's quintessential superhero style in HAWKGIRL to @ryehickman's funky, emotive inks in BAD DREAM: A DREAMER STORY

Galaxy: The Prettiest Star by Jadzia Axelrod

goodreads

Taylor Barzelay has the perfect life. Good looks, good grades, a starting position on the basketball team, a loving family, even an adorable corgi. Every day in Taylor’s life is perfect. And every day is torture. Taylor is actually the Galaxy Crowned, an alien princess from the planet Cyandii, and one of the few survivors of an intergalactic war. For six long, painful years, Taylor has accepted her duty to remain in hiding as a boy on Earth. That all changes when Taylor meets Metropolis girl Katherine “call me Kat” Silverberg, whose confidence is electrifying. Suddenly, Taylor no longer wants to hide, even if exposing her true identity could attract her greatest enemies.

Mod opion: I've read it and especially the art is really pretty.
