In the Dreamscape, anything can happen. So when Katie begins investigating a case that threatens to get out of control, she realizes that she may have bitten off more than she can chew, raising the question: can Dream Police die? And if so, can she survive the darkness she has unwittingly unleashed? Meanwhile, Joe Thursday continues having fl ashes of memory concerning a former partner that neither he nor anyone else can remember. To solve this mystery, he will have to begin asking questions no one wants to answer...questions that threaten the very foundations of the Dreamscape.
Dream Police #3 is not a bad jumping on point with a recap page at the start of the issue, but as with most of J. Michael Straczynskis creator owned work, it is more than worth your time to acquire the full run and immerse yourself in the world of Dream Police, Joe Thursday and psychological hypotheses.

The main story thread progressed nicely too. We see Joe tell Kate the dreams/conscious seeing things that Joe has been experiencing so it will be interesting to see where this goes as I am unsure about Kate whether she is a good guy or just a pawn in the Dreamscape creation based on her appearance in the first issue.. We also see Joe scooping around the Black Files, which we arent told too much about, looking for his own file to perhaps job his brain to remember what this thing is that is irritating him. We also see that at the end of each day he goes to unwind at a dreamers kitchen where he gets to tell his whole day and she doesnt even know he exists and will he uses it as a form of counselling. I really liked these sequences and I am very intrigued as to where this is going based on the last part of this issue. Read Full Review
Another strong issue, and my personal favourite so far, the series appears to be gathering momentum quickly. Although the world depicted needs much explanation, this is getting easier and delivered through story. Joes true character and morality is exposed in a very well written issue that I had to read twice. I dont know about you, but I cant wait for issue 4! Read Full Review
I still love this series. It's not like I will stop following it now. This issue just didn't do anything for me and I hope they work on the “solving problems so quickly” issue. Read Full Review
I hope that the crime in the last issue and the one in this issue connect in some way to make a great conclusion that will leave readers cheering the people behind the pages. For now, readers get a standard crime book with uninspired crimes in a slightly interesting environment. Read Full Review
