    Year Three continues to impress.  The shift to the magical side of the DCU has made this book so fresh, but Tom Taylor ends by reminding us this is still Injustice after all.  Mike S. Miller does a great job with all the characters and I simply cannot wait until next issue. Highly Recommended. Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Michael Moccio Oct 16, 2014

    While this issue is fairly short and sparse in terms of what actually happens, with very little advancement to the story as several pages are wasted on an out-of-place interaction between Harley and the Flash, there's a lot of bang for your buck in the final pages. Read Full Review

    IGN - Mike Logsdon Nov 6, 2014

    Mike S. Miller and Bruno Redondo return once again to illustrate their halves of the story. While both show off many of their same talents as normal, both produce a few panels that come off as rushed from time to time. That said, the storytelling on both sides is still incredibly clear.

    Geeked Out Nation - Jideobi Odunze Oct 14, 2014

    Injustice: Year Three #3 started steady and ended picking up the intensity as winning with magic against Superman is only one of their problems. If this was just them vs. Superman it would be a quick story, but getting these little sub-plots here and there are the best way to keep everyone involved and further engage us in what the world of Injustice has to offer.

    The Fandom Post - Chris Beveridge Dec 26, 2014

    This issue wasn't jarring, exactly, but it took a bit of figuring out what had gone on during the last series to understand some of the motivations at play here. The threat of some big evil magic got things rolling before with Constantine guiding the story well for new readers whereas this one shifts us into more ongoing events in a bigger way. I did like how it unfolded overall, even if it was a little decompressed at times, but the positives outweigh it, especially with the time Harley got with the Flash and getting some time with a Superman that's definitely fun to read in this form. The story is moving along at the expected pace and it's certainly an easy and fun read overall. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Oct 14, 2014

    INJUSTICE: YEAR THREE #3 doesn't have the same level of laughs as the previous 2 chapters, but that's okay because the story takes a big step forward. Instead of dragging out this mystery about what powerful force is lurking out there, the reveal makes quite an entrance (pun once again totally intended) and the bit leaves you wondering what the heck will happen next. Yes, there's still a few moments of levity to enjoy, but this third chapter focuses on reminding us just how important this mission is to Batman's side and then leaves us with the promise of a thrilling follow-up. Who would have thought a digital comic based on a video game would be so consistently good? Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Elena Carrillo Nov 5, 2014

    Always engaging, Injustice never shies from pairing up interesting character interactions and never fails to organically motivate the relationships in those pairings. But while things are working swimmingly for Batman and John Constantine, I'm feeling a little less sanguine about the Spectre popping by chez Superman to give his endorsements. Is it cruel to downgrade a book because I don't like the direction of the story at the moment? Perhaps, but that's based on what I'm perceiving as an illogical turn rather than pure subjectivity in the plot. Read Full Review

    Now with a bigger supernatural threatening their doors Injusticeloves throwing more curve balls towards us. Now that magic is unleashed, the story is only going to get more treacherous, so stay turned as Batman and his group face up against a giant force crushing down upon them. Read Full Review
