Dark Knights of Steel #3 is a fantastic comic, one that tells a great story unshackled by the constraints of continuity. Read Full Review

I highly recommend collecting this series if you haven't started yet! Read Full Review

Overall. A solid third issue, which adds a few more interesting layers to the story. Read Full Review

Excellent character work and startling world building combine to form one of the best, and most surprising, books currently on the market. Read Full Review

This reminds me a lot of Game of Thrones in its ruthless, anyone-can-die style and whip-fast pacing, but with Taylor's usual care for characters and plotting. Read Full Review

Dark Knights of Steel #3adds fuel to the fire of its main conflict as the House of El and Kingdom of Storms go to war. The next issue aims to explore the secret history of Batman within this world, which I'm looking forward to due to the revelation surrounding his heritage in the first issue. Read Full Review

Dark Knights of Steel #3 continues to be a hell of a good time. It not only moves at a fast clip, but it doesn't hold back with character reveals, deaths, and the like. Read Full Review

Dark Knights of Steel #3 is another solid issue of the series. It's slowly building the intrigue and action to come instead of just rushing into things. It also has no problem piling up the bodies and destruction. In other words, it's using its disconnect from continuity to full advantage and delivering a reading experience that's familiar but also keeps readers on their toes. Read Full Review

Tom Taylor and co. kick off 2022 the only way they know how: Giving fans one of the best DC books on shelves today. Read Full Review

I just need Zala to be more than a weapon here. I hope her motivations, movements, and ideas are fleshed out a bit.  Poor Supergirl. She can't catch a break from any current writer. Read Full Review

Again, without Putri and this artistic creative team this week leveling up with some fierce action, DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL #3 would have fallen flat on its face. Taylor merely filled in the gaps and caught up the characters in the story. It was Putri that brought the intensity and savagery that made this issue memorable. Read Full Review

The story is moving along nicely, with enough characters and interesting story beats to keep everything good overall. I fear that if you look too deeply, you can see the gears working behind-the-scenes, but it's all nice enough to just enjoy on a surface level. Read Full Review

DC Comics'DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL #3 is chaotic and unpredictable. This creative team shows that war destroys everything - even the comfortable predictability of a story.Thisisn't a comfortable series. It's heartbreaking, disturbing, and a brilliant discussion of the horrors of war. Read Full Review

Tom Taylor and Yasmine Putri do not miss a beat as they further intensify the story they are telling with what took place in Dark Knights of Steel #3. The political intrigue with the actions King Jefferson Pierce, Queen Hippolyta, Princess Zara Jor-El, and other characters take kept you on your toes the entire time. I'm very excited to see what the fallout from what took place in Dark Knights of Steel #3 will be. Read Full Review

Dark Knights of Steel #3 might take a bit of a step back overall, but I still like this series and can't wait to see what happens next.  Yasmine Putri's art is fantastic, and the vibe of the medieval world Tom Taylor is creating has me pumped.  Unfortunately, things moved a bit too quickly in this issue, and I hope Taylor gets away from the violence he's known to do for the character work that I love.

For DCs efforts to enhance representation, killing off a major black male character casts a disappointing light on this installment of Dark Knights of Steel. Read Full Review

The skill in telling an Elseworlds type tale is placing heroes we know and love in new circumstances. If we can't recognize the heroes then the new circumstances become a basic artistic exercise. It might provide imagery for a new line of action figures, but it certainly won't inspire readers to return for more. Read Full Review

Another cool issue. The art is beautiful, and I can see what Taylor is doing here: don't like King Jefferson dying at first, but then it became clear, that the prophecy is happening even through Zala'd anger. I really do appreciate when characters, trying to avoid a prophecy, ended up fulfilling it.

a very interesting issue. I think this comic book would be the perfect book for newcomers who want to know about fantasy politics. Dont know which one is better, Dark Ages or Dark Knights of Steel.

Such an imaginative world this is becoming. Can't wait for the next step on this story. Putri is just slaying every page (and many characters may I say). Just give me a giant map of this world, like, right now xD Tom Taylor, you had my curiosity when this was annouced, and my attention has peaked, let's see where you take it. Gimme Batman origin ahah

Pretty good issue. Lots of intrigue and machinations. The world building is decent enough all the while the story moves. So far both sides are wrong so that to me is the only downside unless something comes out down the line to sway it all. But I’m in for the next issue.

No more kings.
There ain't no preventing a war, it's already here.
The artwork continues to be my favorite thing about this. And I'm in love with John C. I miss him having a series.
This epic is only just beginning.

This is a good issue. If I had one complaint, I don't know if I like Constantine's characterization here. He's super subservient, which is not like Constantine should be. I'm waiting for him to be a bastard and turn traitor or something. I hope there's yet another shoe to drop.

Estou aqui só pela Zala.

Nice issue, again really great story telling by tom Taylor. it just because this book is only 12 issues so far and him introducing characters to be killed is kinda annoying unlike in DCeased it was mystery who was going to survive because he killed batman earlier and kept him dead to say no the originals aren't surviving. here it isn't that interesting because the story is about apocalypse but instead about mid-evil times. I hope by next issues we see more characters for them in the story no so they can be killed couple of issues down the line.

The story is advancing at a good pace, but I feel like because these are mostly original characters (even if they resemble characters we know), we need to spend a bit more with them before the twist happened (hence why a certain character's death feels a bit hollow).

I predict a twist with Zala. Yasmine's artwork is great as always.

Not bad, but it does seem like Taylor is desperately trying to get a comic picked up for the next DC animated film. Similar to 'DCeased,' there is an overreliance on the shock value of established character deaths. Introducing the Metal Men only to kill them off a panel or two later is disrespectful at worse and lazy at best.

**I'm proud to say my complaints don't involve homophobia or sexism.

Hope his wife does a better job because Black Lightning was a complete idiot in this story.

Great art.

I'm really getting tired of Taylor's "style" of introducing characters only for them to be killed several panels later, it got boring a long time ago. Also notice how almost always those characters are men. If they were women, we'd talk about "fridging" but since they're men, who cares, right? Only in this book he did it 4 times already, he did it with Jor-el, he did with the Metal Men, he did it with Jefferson's son and with Jefferson. I know the classic morons will pretend, as always, that it's not a pattern here, but the rest of us don't have to do that, not all of us have the ideological blinders put on.

Also he writes both Zara and Diana as the classic angry lesbians and that's not a good look for Wonder Woman or for lesbians, in general. So again Taylor does more harm than good to the people he's trying to pander to. But I'm sure he can't see that, he probably thinks he's a good progressive boi.

Another bad and uninteresting issue where Jasmine Putri can only do so much to save Taylor's ass. I guess Taylor can ruin even fantasy now. more

It's a real shame that incredible art is wasted in this way, in a story that starts off interestingly, but then goes downhill with a group of furious lesbians as if that's the best a lesbian woman could be, this is To some extent misogynist, I have good lesbian friends and they don't act like idiots always looking for a fight and look at some of them are rude when it comes to sports. It bothers me that they are caricatured in this way, angry, irrational. And as always a lot of filler characters that come to nothing.

Another thing Kara according to the progressives, she must be a racist woman !!!! ah but since she's gay, it's okay for her to murder a black boy. Hypocrisy of this current double standard.
