When a 100-year-old queer speakeasy-turned-bar-turned-restaurant-and-community-space in Gotham announces that it will soon be closing its doors, generations of patrons come to pay their respects--including Alan Scott, the Green Lantern. After all, this is the place where he and his first love, Johnny Ladd, long ago carved their names into the basement wall before it all went to hell...and a love lost is never a love forgotten. But they werent the only ones to put their names in the wall over the years, and suddenly queer heroes, villains, and civilians alike from across the DCU--the Question, Midnighter and Apollo, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern Jo Mullein, Bunker, Connor Hawke, and Blue Snowman among them--find themselves spirited away to a strange alternate dimension that seems to provide everything they could possibly want...but at what cost? In this oversize story of interweaving narratives, the vanished will need to come together and look into the very depths of the Starheart itself if they hope to escape that which ensnares them in this triumphant and timely story of community amid chaos! The DC Pride: The Heart Wants hardcover collection also features an array of additional short stories and illustrations from queer and allied talent, an autobiographical story from Black Lightning creator Jenny Blake, and a very special DC Pride letters column! Hardcover, 168 pages, full color. Teen Cover price $24.99.
