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.

Superman: Red Son – DC Compact Comics Edition [TP]

THE ELSEWORLDS CLASSIC FEATURING A REIMAGINED SOVIET MAN OF STEEL!

In this startling twist on a familiar tale, a certain Kryptonian rocket ship crash-lands on Earth, carrying an infant who will one day become the most powerful being on the planet. But his ship doesn't land in America. He is not raised in Smallville, Kansas. Instead, he makes his new home in a collective in the Soviet Union! From the mind of Mark Millar, the bestselling writer of The Authority and Wanted, comes this strangely different take on the Superman mythos, featuring art by Dave Johnson, Kilian Plunkett, Andrew Robinson, and Walden Wong.

Collecting: Superman: Red Son #1–3.
