My comic book club picked this volume of short comics for our monthly chat.
As with any story collection, your mileage may vary from tale to tale. Unlike the 2021 DC Pride collection though, there are not only short stories following different characters and brought to life by different writers and artists: this volume also includes a multi-story arc of Tim Drake's journey. I think this is a good balance, having shorter stories juxtaposed with a longer arc, and I hope the 2023 DC Pride collection does something similar. I did note a few popular characters featured in the 2021 DC Pride collection also have a story in this collection but these did not detract from the New Generation collection.
If you enjoyed the 2021 DC Pride collection, you won't be disappointed picking up this one next.
