The final issue of this miniseries has the biggest threat yet for our heroesa giant robot Steel armor, remotely controlled by deranged weapons manufacturer Charles Walker II. He's a rather cartoony villain, but secondary villain Silver Mist has a slightly more sympathetic backstoryone that plays a key role when he decides to switch sides at the last minute and assist the floundering super-family against an enemy that seems to have their number in every way.

I'd read more of these two. I'd read more issues from this team. I have no idea how this series sold. But it was a winner in my book, a sort of modern comic done with some classic comic flair. Lovely art. Read Full Review

Steelworks #6 brings the mini to a close with surprises, big action, and a satisfying conclusion to tie up all the loose ends. In retrospect, Dorn's first outing as a DC writer is solid, and the art team's efforts elevated this story to be one of the better Dawn of DC offerings. Read Full Review
