'Regicide'
Enraged by the betrayal in the last issue from within his inner circle, Jackie Estacado moves to end his conflict with The Sovereign once and for all, and close the book on this chapter of his cursed life. Meanwhile, the Judas in Jackie's crew learns just how much Estacado despises snakes in his midst.
The Darkness is a thoroughly enjoyable comic which has strengths in every department. Even though this issue is effectively one long battle, there is still enough dialogue and story progression to prevent it from being a very quick read or seeming light on content. Now that this arc has ended it will be interesting to see where the title goes next. Next issue sees guest writer Joshua Hale Fialkov, writer of the brilliant Echoes, having a go at The Darkness, so I'm sure I'll be around this time next month. Read Full Review
