I was a little thrown off with the Justice/Doom tie-in as Tynion is writing Justice League where Diana is off in the future while the green light in the sky appears. This should be a book that really plays into the Justice/Doom storyline so itll be interesting to see where Tynion goes with it. Read Full Review

Bueno and Blanco deliver some beautiful artwork that is filled with emotion, detail and darkness. Love the way this issue looks. Read Full Review

This is a really good book. If you're a horror fan in particular then this issue has some Resident Evil-style stuff that you'll love. There's a couple of characters that could've done with a drop more time and a new reader might still find it hard to get into despite the flashback but I really heavily recommend this issue and the series as a whole.

Justice League Dark has bounced between a few events and now it's square in the Year of the Villain. This could prevent further development of an overall narrative in some cases, but that's definitely not true here. Writer James Tynion IV manages to push through character development of the current team while also touching about the greater details of the event. Basically, we get our tie-in without derailing the main storyline. It's a nice way to weave all of this together. This puts a horror spin on the latest DCU event. Read Full Review

Less a traditional superhero comic than a spookhouse horror show with superheroes, Justice League Dark #16 continues the series' tradition of being the most consistently excellent team book in DC's stable. Read Full Review

With writing and artwork this stellar, Justice League Dark #16 continues to be a fantastic run of the world of magic. It's a complete reading experience that encompasses such a staggeringly grand scale and is just incredibly enchanting in all the best ways possible. The monsters are beginning to take shape, and it just makes me excited to see what Tynion IV has in store for the cast. Read Full Review

They didn't lie, this is one of the deadliest chapters yet for the Justice League Dark. This is one of those stories where it does not pay to be a step behind, and boy did this team learn the hard way what happens when this is the case. If you didn't think the Injustice League Dark wasn't going to be much of a challenge, this chapter said otherwise! Read Full Review

Lushly illustrated pages and the subtle raising of stakes areobliterated by a dense story full of contrivances and conveniences. Maybe thething that's supposed to happen will happen in the next issue. Read Full Review

Throughout Tynion's run on Justice League Dark, there's been peaks and valleys on pacing"in fact, inconsistency might be the most consistent thing about it. That said, this issue might end up being the slowest, most inconsequential issue of this entire run. Read Full Review

Prelude:
Tynion has always been this sleeper writer that I've known as good but not legendary but when I look at his work it's been fantastic. It's time to see how this part of the Witching War goes.

The Good:
Eclipso is so threatening here. It's something Tynion just pulls off with ease with so many characters.

Circe too. She gets sidelined quite often recently but she has power and man, she uses it here. Especially with the trippy Wonder Woman confrontation. Small detail but huge props to Alvaro Martinez and Raul Fernandez.

Speaking of, their art and layouts do not disappoint. A staple of JLD that is done so well.

So much world building for the world of magic and it just works.

Bobo is figuring out what's gone wrong and just when he does, Circe out-tricks them all again.

The Bad:
I cannot fault this issue for a single thing. I'm loving this ride and I don't want to get off.

Conclusion:
Another out of this world issue from Tynion and co. Justice League Dark remains one of DC's best books. Every frame of this issue was a masterpiece. more

This series is so fucking good.

I'm guessing that the deus ex of this story arc is going to be the use of the Other-Kind to combat the power of Circe, because there is literally no other way they can beat her. The Injustice League Dark is such a cool concept and I really hope it sticks around even after the ending of this arc.

A step up from #15. Circe is my favorite Wonder Woman villain and I really liked their interaction here. Last issue was a speed bump but I'm hoping Tynion can continue to elevate this story arc.

I felt like it needed a little something more, but it was still good and I still care.

Not my favourite issue, but this book is always great.

The fact that they can't even keep continuity between titles written by the same person is pretty bad. This issue was fine. I don't think we learned anything new, I don't think a full issue's story was told. But this was fine.
