Joshua Williamson continues to gain momentum with another entertaining installment of the Knight Terrors saga. Next month can't come quick enough. Read Full Review

Joshua Williamson has a superb art team and a noted group of heroes that will give you an adventure that goes to the past and stops at the House of Horror. Sandman, Deadman, and Robin are an excellent sampling of DC's heroes that get the job done, but the story will make you question if this is actually a win for the heroes. Read Full Review

This issue works because it seems to have real affection for the two Robins at its core, and uses the plot device to make them stronger. Read Full Review

Knight Terrors #3 ventures into the endgame. With so many asleep, the world can feel empty now. But its also mixing cult favourite characters with household names to tell a story that leans on horror and fear rather than action. The tie-ins might be ending, but Knight Terrors isnt over yet.

The latest installment of DC Comics horror-infused nightmare leaves fans wide awake with some impactful events to process. Williamson, Camuncoli, and the team deliver a solid companion piece to the larger story unfolding across the DCU. Keep an eye out for this on New Comic Book Day! Read Full Review

Knight Terrors #3 manages to move the story forward enough that you care about what's happening in the moment. The narrative still struggles to get you fully invested due to how disjointed the various set pieces are, but individually their smaller character moments carry the scenes. Has it quite reached the point that the series feels “worth it” outside of an event framing device? Not quite, but it's improving. Read Full Review

The end is nigh, as Knight Terrors #3 marks the penultimate issue of the horror event, and the conclusion's approaching like a bullet train. Read Full Review

Ultimately readers, if you havent jump into this event yet, dont bother. And if you already took the plunge into Nightmare on DC Street, you still have time to save the rest of your money before its too late. From missing plot threads, muddied viewpoints, emotionless character connections, and convoluted menageries, Knight Terrors #3 show fans almost every storytelling faux pas making this event harder and harder to get into. I think its time to cut and run people. Just bide your time until September at this point. Let me know what you think, have a great week, and God Bless! Read Full Review

Knight Terrors #3 may be the most problematic issue in this event because it moves the plot forward to acquiring the Nightmare Stone by effectively ignoring every bit of information that came before and rewriting the rules as it goes. It's hard to tell what Williamson was thinking when he drafted this event, but why should the readers invest in making sense of a story when the creator won't? Read Full Review

This diversion is stalling out some hard-earned momentum and some fans might be too sleepy or lose interest to return. Read Full Review

There's no heart, no connection, and what should feel like a major, emotional reveal just feels really boring and not worth the investment in any sense of the word. Read Full Review

Am I starting to enjoy KNIGHT TERRORS? I’m definitely not ready to say the entire event has been worthwhile, but Joshua Williamson’s main story is starting to win me over. I’ve been lukewarm so far, though the previous issue began to show promise that this core plot had potential. That goodwill extends to KNIGHT TERRORS #3 as Williamson finally reveals where the Nightmare Stone was hidden and sets up pieces on the board for the event’s climax.

Deadman continues to shine as the breakout star of the event and much of that is due to Williamson’s use of the character as a wall-breaking narrator and unlikely (an undead) hero while DC’s other superheroes are under Insomnia’s spell. It’s apparent that Williamson is having a ton of fun writing for the character and it’s on full display in the dialogue he writes between Deadman and Damian Wayne. These two characters are forced to work together and we spend a lot of time with the two discussing relationships, life, and sacrifices. Williamson crafts a chemistry between the two that doesn’t resemble two best-friends, but a mutually beneficial partnership that includes moments of humor and sincerity.

Williamson also provides some much needed character development for Insomnia, showing his evolution from a recovering mental health patient to the main bad guy of the event through a flashback scene we visit via Deadman’s mental connection that was established earlier in the event. It’s been a slow build up for a villain that has managed to effect the entire world, but I’m not sure it’s completely paid off yet. I’m still not sold on his vendetta against the Justice League.

The artwork in KNIGHT TERRORS #3 comes from the same trio as the previous issue, Giuseppe Camuncoli, Stefano Nesi, and Caspar Wijngaard. Wijingaard also provides colors for the issue along with Frank Martin. These four creative talents are putting together some of the best visuals of the year. They continue to provide distinct approaches that allow Williamson to transition between timelines, worlds, and realities without the reader feeling lost. It doesn’t hurt that the visuals from strong to stunning. Scenes featuring Insomnia’s flashback and Deadman and Damian’s trip through the Reality Stream are unique takes on horror that fit the script perfectly.

If the previous issues of the main event felt like they were taking an extended amount of time moving the plot forward, Williamson chose overdrive for this issue. Deadman makes a very personal decision that highlights his character’s growth and leads to him and Damian discovering the Nightmare Stone. Though an unexpected cliffhanger leaves readers wondering if characters are actually who they seem? It’s a great setup for the final issue of the main story and the full event’s conclusion in KNIGHT TERRORS: NIGHTS END #1.

Rating: 8/10 more

this issue was a huge improvement from the last issue, I really enjoyed this issue more. A better pacing at least and things are picking up the pace. I just wish the art was better.

So right off the bat, still loving Zombie Dobbs, love the look, love the writing. Overall art is enjoyable for the reader. Now as for the story...

There are some real meat on the bones that could be played around with, but there is also so much campiness/cheesiness to this story. Bostons opening, the 'house of horrors comment' the way they find the nightmare stone. It all just feels like it is written so that it can be forced. I do enjoy Damien coming and joining the fight. While his reason why he is still awake is a bit sketchy, the FCBD issue gave him ample 'prep time' to know what is coming and we all know Batman (and his progeny) can do crazy stuff with prep time, so I give it a pass.

All in all, its fine, there are great parts and there are lame parts. more
