JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK # 22 Review

Reviewing JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK # 22 (Trinity War Part 3) from DC Comics written by Jeff Lemire with art by Mikel Janin. It's brought to us by Comicx Hub and Castle Geek


By far this is the part of TRINITY WAR that's fast paced as Sonic the Hedgehog on speed. It's also a looker in terms of art and certainly worthy of being lined up as the third act of the long teased DC crossover.

What made it such a great book:

The posturing was to die for here. There's Team Batman who are basically Phantom Stranger's team, team Wonder Woman (with Aquaman no less) hunting down Pandora and the box and then there's The Question who escaped ARGUS with the rest of Team Superman.



- The art was just WOW. Again, if I didn't read the title/ cover, I would've thought that this was another issue of Justice League. Janin did an amazing job in this issue. Just check out those big team moments such as the formation of Team Superman and the eventual creation of Team Batman and Team Wonder Woman. 

- Lemire crafted a well-thought of script (surprisingly). My only gripe is the fact that it's too short to build character but that's forgiveable since he's playing with a really huge cast. Much props to the writer for still casting an air of mystique on "The Outsider".

- Trinity War is definitely kicking into full gear with this issue. This third issue sold me on to this and despite all the bad shit DC might have been getting from each book, I think this is a really well thought of crossover.  It might be hard to figure out which JL/JLA/JLD member would but I'll give it more time and a few more reads to really remember where each character belongs or sided with.

VERDICT: 9/10
