As the Voice's grip on Gotham tightens, Jim Gordon doesn't know whom he can trust. With monstrous beasts threatening the city, he turns to the Bat-Man for help, but to truly stop this reign of terror, playboy millionaire Bruce Wayne will step in to help guide the investigation. It all leads to a heart-pounding conclusion that will literally set Gotham ablaze!
Jurgens rarely works with Batman and even more rarely does anything this dark, but this is one of the best works of his career. Read Full Review
With a satisfying conclusion, exciting action sequences, beautiful pulp-inspired art, and great character development for Bruce Wayne/Batman readers will instantly be hooked. However, this series might not offer much novelty for readers familiar with the traditional Batman origin story. Nevertheless, overall, The Bat-Man: First Knight Book Three is a thrilling and visually stunning conclusion to a unique take on a classic hero's beginnings. Read Full Review
In the final issue of this brief mini-series covering Batman's early days of his vigilante work, issue #3 perfectly wraps up all its loose ends fittingly. Read Full Review
The Batman: First Knight #3 concludes the storyline with some religious overtones that play very well into the origin of Dark Knight. Recently DC's been toying with a lot of variations of the character by breaking him down or perhaps making him more powerful. This Black Label three-issue story arc is well worth the read, as Dan Jurgens grabbed my attention from the first page of the first issue. Read Full Review
This brings us to the end of First Knight. It's been one of my favourite Black Label series (not that there's much competition) and I'm really glad I got a chance to review it. the ending doesn't completely land for me, but it's more so tolerable than bad. It's a shame that this is my least favourite issue of the bunch but hey, at least I got to see those purple gloves. Read Full Review
The Bat-Man: First Knight #3 ends the Rated M for Mature adventure of the Bat-Man in the 1930s with excellent detective work, an explosive plot to take over Gotham City, and strong art. Plus, the reveal of the Voice's identity is a well-constructed surprise. That said, Jurgens's script has pacing problems due to extraneous characters and subplots that go nowhere and an imbalance between the dialog and the action. Read Full Review
A solid if mostly unremarkable story featuring textured writing and art, The Bat-Man: First Knight will likely remain on shelves as a fun Elseworld origin story for years to come without making too many waves. Read Full Review
Ultimately, this was a comic that tried to do some interesting things and probably would have worked better as a longer series, but the comic had to quickly wrap up after just a couple of issues. Read Full Review
It didn't quite come together; the final issue was a little clunky. Still enjoyable stuff on the whole.
Solid ending. This is another DC Black Label featuring Batman that I would reccomend to people
