DARKNESS (2025) #3

Now that he understands the nature and power of the Darkness, Jackie Estacado is consumed by revenge. In this ongoing chapter of the saga, Silvestri's dark crime epic narrows its focus as the Russian mob's grip tightens and unseen forces move behind the shadows. With brutal set pieces and a claustrophobic sense of menace, the issue deepens Jackie's struggle to control the Darkness without losing his humanity. The art by Raymond Gay and Arif Prianto renders supernatural power with kinetic clarity, while colorist choices emphasize mood as the Brotherhood of the Darkness emerges as Jenny's new line of defense. This issue continues the central arc of The Darkness, balancing brutal urban crime with mythic powers and personal demons, and it spotlights the tense dynamic between a vigilante antihero and powers that may surpass him.
