DC BLACK LABEL AGES 17+
It's 1941, and Hub City is on the brink of a world war...and private eye Charlie Sage is on the brink of unraveling an enormous conspiracy! If he could just get that mysterious dame in red to talk-and keep his kneecaps intact, what with that strike-busting muscle coming up behind him-then maybe, just maybe, he can break the terrible cycle that keeps leading him back, through the ages, to his own death... 8.5" x 10.875"
The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #3 was a treat to read, especially in the wake of Denny O'Neil's passing. Thanks to the creators for giving us readers a new story that pays homage to O'Neil's masterpiece. Read Full Review
Being interesting, engrossing, and entertaining for 40+ pages while containing subtle substance and an incredible structure makes this a perfect issue. It’s great storytelling mixed with great art to form a great comic book. Brilliance can be found in the miniseries format and the way Lemire has crafted this story is clearly brilliant. The art may be the best and most expressive in a DC book this year and creates such a satisfying atmosphere. This is a genius and exciting comic book and, with one more issue left, I can’t wait to have this series complete to read it again. Read Full Review

Fans of The Question will love this entry in this series, which plays on the noir components of the character and continues Lemire and company's tale of mystery and intrigue. This is everything a Question tale should be! Read Full Review
Lemire packs the story with so many twists and turns that it is exhilarating. The ending of this issue is especially awesome. And nobody draws the Question better than Denys Cowan. He does an amazing job here as well. This book really is an incredible series. I am only sad that it is ending next month. Read Full Review

he Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #3 is the best issue of the series yet, and I'm excited to see how they put all the threads, timelines, Vic Sages, Questions, and questions in The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage's finale Read Full Review
In this issue, Jeff Lemire capitalizes on the multiple lives of Vic Sage in a subplot that doesn't feel drastically different from issue 2's western, but is overall an entertaining detective story/psychological mystery. The issue truly excels in its visuals, with lettering that provides a crucial bit of authenticity for the noir setting and fantastic art that enhances the dreary mood. The Deaths of Vic Sage #3 does enough story-wise to keep you entertained, more than enough visually to satisfy fans of Cowan, Sienkiewicz, or the crime genre in general, and builds a decent amount of anticipation for the series' final chapter, releasing in August.

The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #3 is worth reading just from the names on the cover, but it continues to be a gritty mystery that holds its own. The Question is on the case, but for now there are more questions than answers, but they are coming. Read Full Review
Another stellar issue by Lemire with again great pencil/inks by Bill and Cowan. This issue again dwells into another past life of Vic Sage in the 40s as a PI, and again continues builds up this conspiracy behind Hub City, but this time providing more revelations to what Vic is dealing with and how he could not only find the right answers, but ask the right questions. We see the story coming together and setting up the 4th issue for Vic to solve this conspiracy behind the history of Hub City, and finally answering his question.
I didn't quite like this as much as issue two, but it was pretty entertaining to read, even if I feel like there really isn't a way to put the mystery together as the reader. But maybe it's just been too long since the first two issues.
I wish maybe the mystery had been more engaging or developed, so I had more of a reason than to just sort of joylessly flip through it, waiting until he got to see some spooky shit.
