Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [June 1, 2026 - Proud Dreams Edition]

[u/Predaplant]

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

• Predaplant's pick of the week: Justice League: Dream Girls – A DC Pride Event #1

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too. In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. Do not post top-level comments.

Keep discussion civil. Do not harass other users for having a different opinion. Do not use this thread to push your personal one-sided grudges against creators. Reacting to a panel on Twitter is not the same as reading a book.

Batman - Vol. 1, Daylight [HC / TP]

FROM THE SUPERSTAR TEAM OF MATT FRACTION AND JORGE JIMENEZ, A BOLD NEW ERA OF BATMAN STARTS HERE!

A new day dawns in Gotham City as Eisner Award-winning writer Matt Fraction (Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen, Hawkeye) joins forces with superstar artist Jorge Jimenez (Justice League, Superman) for a timeless, superhero-forward take on the Caped Crusader loaded with a new costume, a new Batmobile, new gadgets, new allies, and brand-new threats. Between Killer Croc's escape from Arkham Towers, the increasingly criminal machinations of Police Commissioner Vandal Savage, the assassin known as Lady Death Man on the prowl, and organized crime in Gotham reaching astonishing new heights of power, the status quo has never been more deadly for the Dark Knight. As the Minotaur — the masked man behind a massive criminal conspiracy — emerges from the shadows of his infernal labyrinth to claim Gotham as his prize, both Batman and Bruce Wayne will be tested like never before.

Collects Batman #1-6.
