This is a great collection of short stories. I do wish some of them had been given more time to develop, but this works well as a sampler of these characters. The diversity (both in identity and characterization) means no two stories feel too similar, despite most having somewhat similar themes and tones.

Good mix of stories, I skipped a few of them because I didn't know who they were (or they were constantine related, meh) Most of them were nice short stories that could be wrapped up quickly, I was super happy to see two of the pied pippers working together.
I also love the art in the back of variant covers with several other characters interacting with pride theme.

It's a good book, I don't feel like this feels forced because several of these characters are LGBT+ already, so it wasn't like a suddenly a new character specifically for this book gets added. I'd like to some more things like this!

Some of these stories were great, some were really not. Sometimes the vibe was just really off, but when it was good it was fantastic

I really enjoyed the stories, and my stand outs are:
Harleys and Poison Ivys, Alan Scott, Jess Chambers and Nia Nals(Dreamer’s) stories

I wasn't interested in about half of these stories, but I really liked the ones that focused on queer heroes socializing with each other. If they ever want to put out a series that's literally just heores being friends and living life, I'll be first in line to get it.
