Dark Crisis On Infinite Earths #7 sticks the landing. Much like the rest of this book, its not going to win over fans who arent already into it, but for fans who like it, its fantastic. It kicks off the new era of DC very well. The creative team does a tremendous job, with the art especially being good. Dark Crisis On Infinite Earths has been a great ride for DC fans, and this ending is wonderful. Read Full Review

The story ends with some great family-focused moments for the Bats, Supers, and Flashes, nicely sets up some characters for future adventures, and leaves many unanswered questions about what the next big threat is. I can see some people feeling like it didn't live up to the hype, but I think it delivered one of the most entertaining and complete DC events outside of the Metal duo in a long time.

All of the artists bring some beautiful visuals into this finale. The action is stunning and the characters look great. There are some great visual moments with Dick that really helped me appreciate him more as a character. Read Full Review

Dark Crisis On Infinite Earths #7 is by no means perfect. There are decisions made that should've been refined over the course of the main series rather left up to tie-in comics. But even with that this is a comic book that you can't help but get lost in all the hype moments. There are so many moments that will bring a smile on the faces of fans of the DC Universe. Joshua Williamson, Daniel Sampere, and company delivered a fun big event that lays a strong foundation for the future of DC Comics. Read Full Review

Will DC soar to new heights with their ‘new' Multiverse, or will we back in Crisis mode again in a few short years? Only time will tell. Read Full Review

The issue is good, but the ramifications are frustrating. Read Full Review

Like so much of DC Comics recent big events, ‘Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths' #7 is the latest to define the DCU. But, with so many event series' seemingly designed to do this again and again, it becomes very tiresome for the umpteenth time. Clichd and disappointing, but with faultless art from a raft of tope talent led by series' regular, Daniel Sampere. An artist who has really come into his own on this book. Read Full Review

Readers, if you're searching for a solid explanation as to how this event wraps, you won't find it this week. And truthfully, the big positive is that Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths finally ends a half-year event that seemed to drag longer than a 162-game MLB season. Read Full Review

At the end of Dark Nights: Death Metal, a multiverse was born of infinite possibilities. At the end of Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths #7 a new multiverse is born of infinite possibilities. The difference? I couldn't really say. Beyond the small details, a lot of the two events feels exactly the same. While the event sends some characters and teams in new directions, overall, it was a lot of show to get us to a spot not much further than where we began. Read Full Review

We already know the "Dawn of DC" is the next big publishing initiative and features new ongoing series for Shazam, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and more, but does Dark Crisis hold up on its own merits? Surprisingly well, in fact, although there aren't too many big, character-defining moments to be found, even with the teases concerning Nightwing. Read Full Review

The back third of the issue shifts artists as it jumps around the DC Universe, setting up stories that are already in process or on the horizon, feeling like a tacked-on postscript. Its hard to recommend picking up this issue for anything past Samperes art, and DC has made clear that its not willing to put itself behind this series, or the other concurrently running events. Read Full Review

After a lot of pages, there is a Multiverse sitting on top of Infinite Earths. But I don't think I could explain this series easily. And maybe we can pause before we reboot again. Read Full Review

Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths #7 talks a big game, but in the end, it felt like a wasted opportunity at best and a complete waste at worst. Dark Crisis was hardly an Event but was also hardly a story. No wonder DC Comics has already moved on to Lazarus Planet and left this behind before it was even finished. Read Full Review

To me, books like Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths are exactly that: content. They're not there to engage, to challenge, to try something different. They're there as a rollercoaster, to thrill and excite those who are on for the ride. It's fun, to a point: but it's the same loops, the same twists, the same turns. Read Full Review

I actually really enjoyed this series. It was fun exciting and had a lot of great moments that kinda shook up the status quo as well as had great action. Favorite crisis event

Its good, unfortunately not as great as I'd like. I dont know... something feels missing about this event. I definitely liked it, the artwork was absolutely phoenomenal. Maybe its because I didnt get into too many of the tie ins. I cant complain much because theres a lot to like here. The character moments are great. Black Adams growth as a character actually feels earned. Pariah being tossed aside for Deathstroke makes me wonder why he wasnt the big bad the whole time. Hes way better, and gets some cool moments. The issue has so much going on that nothing is really able to be focused on for two long which is unfortunate. I wouldve liked a longer fight between him and Grayson for example. Grayson gets a lot of good, and we are able to see what truly makes him a great hero which is going to please many fans. IDK. I almost wish we got another issue or so to really make that final fight ore impactful but that mightve been too much. Still worth picking up though. Art alone achieves that. more

The Crisis to end all crises. This issue shows the missed opportunity with this event. Dark Crisis should've been about legacy characters getting their chance to stand on their own and showcase the importance of legacy in DC universe, but DC being DC had to make it all about rebooting the Multiverse. And this issue truly delivered characterwise. The Nightwing and Deathstroke's face-off was great as are other moments. If the story wasn't trying to suck up to Crisis on Infinite Earths it would've had some standout qualities instead of being just Crisis-lite. But as a whole this event was just a bunch of characters fighting most notorius villains turned into mindless goons with the most dull big bad of all crises Pariah (whose inclusion in this event is pure fanservice). Deathstroke being a big player was very compelling but rushed by the end. It's like the Williamson lost interest in Pariah and decided to make Slade the final boss. It fits thematically but not storywise as he was sidelined for the whole thing. Daniel Sampere is the selling point of DCOIE. Consistent banger through and through. Love every single splash pages he did. It's kind of sad that all this build up in many of Williamson's good books was for nothing. I laughed when I saw Failsafe and Nezha in the end as if they were teasering new big things while they were happening already for months during Dark Crisis. Truly the Testament of DC's lack of clear vision post-Metal. Hope the Lazarus Planet will be good tho. more

A whatever ending. I guess my problem with this series is how much it plays safe and this issue was that. The most safe ending possible. It uses the characters in whatever way fits the story instead of using the characters to move it. And i just hate how much this tries to lie to us. This series asks us to look at the past, but not the actual past we read but a different version that the writer want us to. And yeah, at the end of the day this was just some eye candy with some cheap fan service. Not even 10% of what the original crisis was. It goes in the complete opposite direction. Just another robotic cashgrab event.

They really expected Black Adam to make a billion dollars, huh?

What was that? They added Crisis to the title, but it didn’t even feel like a mini-Crisis. Incoherent and pointless. I’m extremely disappointed,
