    It's hard to say exactly how you might feel about Age of Reptiles: Baby Turtles considering this is one of those rare stories where the art tells the story.

All in all it is worth reading just for the artwork, it really is gorgeous. Read Full Review

While each story may not match cater to one's desire for the caped ubermench, it is a chance to spot new talent in a field that will only keep growing. Read Full Review

    With only one truly standout story, Dark Horse Presents #3 is hard to recommend, even to readers that followed the first two issues. Still, the great thing about an anthology format like this is that there's so much potential for things to improve in the next issue. So, if you're an optimist, don't give up on this series just yet.
