This is a more nuanced version of Deathstroke, one weighed down by decades of tragedy that he helped to create himself. In places, it reminds me quite a bit of the brilliant take Priest did on the character for fifty issues. Read Full Review

Dark Knights of Steel's latest chapter unfolds in a sentimental, high-octane way. Jay Kristoff delivers both on character and on clever action, and Tirso's art and colors in the main story are nothing short of outstanding, playing with the medium of comics in some fun and compelling ways.

Knights of Steel plays heavily with sword and sorcery tropes of the genre, but seems to lack it's own voice for now. I totally appreciate this setting, but this story is getting increasingly dull. The creative team spends most of the main story discussing the boy's abilities and fighting a new party member. Furthermore, Batman feels like a random addition thrown in inorganically. For a character the readers have spent a lot of time with in the last series, Batman confusingly lacking motivation, virtually confessing that he had nothing better to do. The back up is picking up steam with the introduction of Arthur, but continues to seem like a bland history lesson with admittedly amazing illustration. Hopefully, both stories come together nicely, and wake up this otherwise lackluster adventure. Read Full Review
