I agree I would love to see this turned into a animated series!
AFTER THE LIGHTS GO OUT — STRANGE THINGS LURK WITHIN THE DARKNESS! The Earth has been plunged into darkness, and Avengers and X-Men have begun vanishing in the night. They have been taken and twisted by Apocalypse to serve an evil older than the world. A group of heroes will assemble to travel across the dark planet in a desperate attempt to rescue their friends and save a civilization already on its knees.
If you are interested in fine writing, character, kindness, action, violence, and startling art, this is the book for you. If none of that sounds appealing, I dunno. Read a Frank Miller book, I guess? Read Full Review
Pick up Dark Ages #3 today! Thus far, this story has kept me wanting more. It is perfectly paced with just the right number of high stakes that easily place this on my list of top 10 comics for 2021. If you are a fan of various Marvel characters going toe to toe with villains, this is most definitely the comic for you! Read Full Review
Dark Ages #3 threatens the paradise the Marvel heroes have built for themselves, as one hero meets their end and Apocalypse plans to live up to his namesake. The end of the issue teases another hero undergoing a horrifying transformation. Since we're now at the halfway point, I fully expect the creators to punch other readers and me in the heart again.

Dark Ages #3 is another fantastic issue that has us already wanting more from Taylor twisting the Marvel world. It's an issue full of moments, exciting, shocking, sad, and funny. It's a hell of a read that's enjoyment from cover to cover. Read Full Review
Dark Ages #3 does a great job building on the foundation created by the first two issues to create a compelling narrative around Apocalypse as the main antagonist from this series. The progression of the story was all well done to position all sides of this conflict as strongly as possible. Dark Ages is definitely a can't miss series for Marvel fans. Read Full Review
Dark Ages #3 introduces the same themes and tropes you would expect from modern continuity. This is a lost chance to tell new unique stories in an unique setting. Read Full Review
Dark Ages seems to be designed like a dopamine-delivery system, capable of offering brief boosts for familiar Marvel fans before being forgotten altogether, although Coello does deliver some nice design work in Dark Ages #3. Read Full Review
Issue #3 continues the trend of great things from this issues. Marking the halfway point of this 6 issue miniseries, we see Quicksilver used to attack our heroes. I loved the Doctor Doom design and dialogue in this issue. The idea of some villains working with the heroes instead of Apocalypse is interesting and I hope this is not the last we see of Doom specifically. I love Spidey's role in this series because he continues being narrator without making this a Spider-Man book unnecessarily.
Need a Animated TV Series adaptation so bad😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This continues to be a fantastic story full of heart and high stakes. I love how the story is being narrated by peter parker in the future I find that to be such a creative and cool touch. Tom Taylor is a fantastic writer who is on fire lately.
I read this after the announcement that Tom Taylor has become an exclusive creator at DC. My reaction to that news was very tepid and mild. I wasn't too worried about it. This issue, however, has grown my concern, for lack of a better word, that Marvel missed out here. As a Marvel zombie, that sucks. This is a great engaging issue, can't wait to see what happens next.
Tom Taylor writing as Tom Taylor, its great, and Iban Coello art is excelent
It's great. Only minor problem, character who has pyrogenesis as superpower gets burned away by fire. Overloading of power killed him. Stupid.
I love how he references Faraday law.
Physics inside me: Secretly happy.
Tom Taylor had mastered the ability to craft dystopia world.
The stakes have risen! This is exactly what I'd expect from Tom Taylor, which I guess isn't such a bad thing
I liked this issue, it is just mindless entertaining alternate universe story.
This series just keeps getting better & better. The one thing I enjoy about Tom Taylor is that he's able to give short, standout moments to characters who usually don't get much love. Quicksilver has such a impactful moment. Its visually impressive & drives the story forward. This issue still feels like set up but it was enjoyable.
I probably liked this more than I should have. Has a really cool quilsilver part, a sad death scene and an ending that leaves me ready for next issue.
This is a pretty nice execution of a very basic idea. It's like your standard Big Dumb Event Comic™, but without the crossovers and tie-ins. Which is a good thing, I guess. The art looks a little rougher in this issue. Pacing is good. The plot isn't smart, but it works. Characterization is limited to jokes and light continuity gags. This is a slightly positive example of a "popcorn" comic: aggressively shallow, but entertaining.
It's pretty good. But it moves too slowly for me. I wish this was a bit better paced.
WTF was this? Does that sound like Dr. Doom? "Tick Tick"? Is Doom the jokester type? This is a parody of Doom. This whole series is a bad parody of Injustice. And Johnny dying was as predictable as it could have been, we knew it from page 1. Coello did a great job on art but story wise, this is just really bad.
