Hey Everyone, Welcome back to Comic Book Yeti's Picks of the Week. This month I am picking books that fit for Pride Month, so they all might not be under $5 for single issues or under $20 for collections. I was really surprised to see that DC had more than a single Pride related issue. Check out the great stories.

The Collections Picks
ENCORE TP
HARPER COLLINS $18.99
(W/A/CA) Miles Toriko Burks
From the Solicits:
Senior year is in full swing for Clay, and he’s determined to have a good year filled with friends, theater dreams, and newfound confidence. But when his ex-best friend, Aron, suddenly reappears in his life—and his theater class—it throws a wrench in all of Clay’s big plans. Annoyingly, the two are paired up during an improv exercise, and being vulnerable together on stage swirls up all sorts of old, complicated feelings that honestly, Clay would rather just forget about. Even more annoyingly, Aron seems to want to act like there’s nothing weird or confusing about being back in each other’s orbits again. Which is ironic, since Aron was the one who ghosted Clay in favor of some cool, popular new friends in the first place.But as their class assignment continues and the two spend more and more time together, things start to feel...good. Soon they’re rekindling their friendship through improv, impromptu dips in the pool, and movie nights. Before long, they’re seeing each other more than either of their respective friend groups.Clay isn’t sure how long he can keep his old feelings buried, but can he trust Aron again, after everything they’ve been through?
VIRGINIA WOOLF TP
MAD CAVE $19.99
(W/A/CA) Liuba Gabriele
From the Solicits:
An emotional and vibrant retelling of the famous author's passions and torments, as well as her ardent relationship with Vita Sackville-West. Virginia Woolf ended her own life in March 1941, driven by the strength of her grief for the world entering another war. She was a woman full of turbulent emotions and desires, ones which brought her both great joy and suffering. Told through loose connections with some of Woolf's most beloved novels and using quotations from letters written by Woolf and Sackville-West, this graphic novel brings color and texture to this semi-secret love affair and boldly renders the waves and lulls of Woolf's extraordinary mind.
