• All the sacrifices made on the day the world went dark could be for nothing if Apocalypse has his way.
• Some of the greatest minds on the planet have been enslaved by the tyrant and are working on a plan that could end in annihilation.
• Will our heroes, fighting for their loved ones and lost ones, be able to stop Apocalypse and his forces, or could the world end again?
RATED T+
Dark Ages #6serves as an antidote to the more worn-out tropes of post-apocalyptic realms and a perfect cap on Tom Taylor's time with Marvel. If you enjoyed DCeasedorInjustice, or you're looking for a superhero story with a more upbeat ending, I definitely recommend either picking up all the issues or waiting for the trade collection.

Coello delivers some fantastic art on every page. There are beautifully detailed action as well as character moments that are both surprising and entertaining. Read Full Review
This was a satisfying conclusion to a wonderful story. I'm so sorry to leave this world behind. If only every apocalypse could be so beautiful. Read Full Review
Hopefully, we get a sequel to the series. Dark Ages #6 leaves more than enough out there to build a really interesting follow up. Unfortunately, due to an exclusive deal with DC, any sequel won't have the talent of Tom Taylor. Taylor through six issues helped balance heart and action with the fantastic art of Iban Coello for a miniseries that delivers on popcorn entertainment. Read Full Review
When disassembled for sharing on social media, Dark Ages #6 is bound to provoke some reactions, but when reading the entire issue it simply seems shoddy. Read Full Review
I didn't mind this final issue, but I will say, I feel like the story was significantly rushed, especially with the tacked on moral at the end. This definitely won't endure the times the way Injustice or DCeased seem like they will (sorry Marvel), but it's a fine story. They should slap the Zdarsky What If logo on the trade, btw.
I thought it was a harmless and fun What If Scenario. dont know why a lot of people dont like this compared to DCeased though, would love ot hear everyone's thoughts
Felt a bit rushed, but this was a nice, fun, heartfelt ending nonetheless
It ended sooner than I wanted it to end. But I still enjoyed the ride.
Not too much to say here. It's an ending of a piece with the rest of the series: Satisfying, beautifully drawn (though the visuals are a touch dated), aggressively not deep. Maybe it comes across a little rushed.
Dark Ages wound up being a great popcorn comic: Something fun and exciting to read that never demanded much in the way of thought.
Good but that seemed way too easy. Were the heroes in any actual danger?
It was probably the best issue since the first but, that is not saying much. I liked the first issue. I wanted to like this series but, overall, I can't say it's worth the read.
Fine issue. Lacklustre ending.
