Finished the Danish version of Murderbot Dairies - En Dræberbots Dagbog.

It's fun. It's an enjoyable few hours. But you can feel it's made by a small publisher, Delphiki, who likely don't have much help. There some grammar and three or four formatting mistakes, but not anything I haven't seen from larger publishers.

I love the choices in describing genders. Danish, Swedish and most Norwegian, have two grammatical genders: common gender and neutral. And we have 5 to 6 pronouns depending how you count. (Han, hun, den, det, de and some will also use hen).

Danish is a hard language. One small-talk topic among Danes is do discuss our language and grammar, because even we are uncertain on how we should say something. It is very much a context language. Plenty words have different meaning depending on the rest of the sentence. (for instance "overse" means both "missed noticing" and "being in charge of", and in this book additionally a name). And we use a lot of figures of speech.

So not to be to critical and acknowledging that translation is hard and it has to be more interpretation. I do not agree with all the choices. For instance not translating/explaining "hub" (though how to make "netværksknudepunkt" short is also hard) but they do call it SecEnhed and explain its a mishmash of word. (Sorry @oneiriad it was not translated by mashing sikkerhed and enhed) And they use Ond (evil) for hostiles rather than Fjendtlig(enemy like). I think my experience is affected by my background. It seems like the translator is not fluent in Danish tech language, because I have been trained to use other words and phrases in a scientific context. It does remove some of the fluidity for me, but I don't think people without my background will notice.

But no matter what. I would be happy to recommend it to a friend and I believe they will get the same experience and the same story as reading it in English.

When I posted the front page before, plenty said they liked the artwork. The artist is just called Guilio with no more details. But on the publishers blog they say it's an Italian comic book artist, and after doing some art comparison, I believe its Giulio Macaione (Facebook) who do a lot of queer art.

I hope they will translate more books. But the Publisher's facebook, blog and other update sites, have been silent since August 2023- So I don't know. (Maybe I should e-mail them.)

Also featuring Fire and Ice heating things up, fan-favorite heroine Power Girl's romantic tale, John Constantine's mysterious tryst, an amorous Aquaman adventure, and many more! These are lovelorn fantasies as only DC can tell them…but it's not a Harlequin romance…prepare yourself for the Harley Quinn Romances!

"DC Pride" Returns in 2025 with New Format

DC Comics is changing up the format of DC Pride for the special's 5th anniversary. In past years DC Pride was an anthology series spotlighting LGBTQIA+ heroes, but in 2025 the special will instead feature a "singular story arc of interweaving narratives." These narratives are framed by an Alan Scott story from Tim Sheridan, Emilio Pilliu, and Giulio Macaione.

Several of DC comics' heroes will come together when "a century-old tavern, the center of queer life in Gotham City, unexpectedly announces its imminent closure. It’s a huge loss to the community, and generations of patrons return to pay respects to a space they’ve endowed with entire lifetimes of memories, wishes and dreams—including Alan Scott, the Green Lantern. Alan returns, for one last time, to the place he fell for his first love, Johnny Ladd, to touch the wall on which they carved the symbol of their love, to remember the days before everything went to hell for them...and to say goodbye.

But love is a kind of magic, and, in Alan’s experience, magic can take on a life of its own. Before anyone knows it’s happening, heroes, villains, and civilians alike from across the DCU with powerful ties to this mysterious place—the Question, Midnighter and Apollo, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern Jo Mullein, Bunker, Connor Hawke, and Blue Snowman among them—find themselves spirited away to strange, alternate worlds where everything they ever thought they wanted can be theirs…but at what cost?" (DC Comics)

Stories taking place in the framing device of Scott's return to the beloved bar include:

a Jo Mullein story from Vita Ayala, Maya Houston, and Vincent Cecil;

a story about new character Ethan Rivera from Jude Ellison S. Doyle, Josh Trujillo, and A.L. Kaplan;

a story about Connor Hawke from Sam Maggs and Phillip Sevy;

a Bunker story from Josh Trujillo and Don Aguillo;

a Harley Quinn story by Maya Houston and Max Sarin;

a Blue Snowman story by Jude Ellison S. Doyle and Alex Moore;

a Renee Montoya story by Vita Ayala and Skylar Patridge;

and a Midnighter and Apollo story by Sam Maggs and Derek Charm.

Additionally, fans can submit about how DC's legacy has impacted or reflected their LGBTQIA+ identity, journey, and/or experience on the DC Official Discord Server until March 28, 2025. DC's editorial team will then select some of the letters, cosplay, and fan art to be published in a letters column inside DC Pride 2025.

DC Pride 2025 goes on sale on June 4, 2025. The special features a main cover by Kris Anka, variant covers by Sozomaika and Julia Reck, and a 1:25 variant cover by Jack Hughes.

Other DC Pride products from DC Comics in 2025 include:

DC Pride-themed variant covers on several titles.

Hardcover collection of DC Pride: To the Farthest Reaches - on sale on May 27, 2025 - which collects DC Pride 2024 and additional stories. Cover by Kevin Wada.

Spoilers for comics in June!

These are from the official solicits for that month, which you can see in full at Adventures In Poor Taste.

THE FLASH #10 Written by SIMON SPURRIER Art and cover by RAMÓN PÉREZ Variant covers by OTTO SCHMIDT and MATT TAYLOR DC Pride variant cover by NICK ROBLES $3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock) ON SALE 6/25/24 As the Arc Angles bring the Crown of Thawnes into The Gallery, Wally West has to pull himself together to face some old Rogues. Amanda Waller’s Task Force raids Terrifictech, and brings some shocking backup to keep any speedsters in line!

Very curious if these "old Rogues" are different people than the ones we've been seeing (Evan or Folded Man or Grodd), or if the term has even been improperly capitalized and he's fighting Razer or Mazdan or somebody.

That variant cover gives me vibes of Lisa's ribbons or even Roscoe, but that's probably just wishful thinking.

There's nothing overt about Hartley in this year's Pride issue, but here's the solicit just in case. Maybe he'll appear in a pin-up.
