Dark Knights of Steel
Dark Knights of Steel is an American comic book created by Tom Taylor and Yasmine Putri and published by the publishing company DC Comics. The twelve-issue limited series—written by Taylor and illustrated primarily by Putri—began its monthly publication on November 2, 2021. Set in an alternate universe, the series is a high fantasy reimagining of the DC Universe starring Superman and Batman.
The Dark Knights of Steel comic book limited series was created by Tom Taylor and Yasmine Putri, with the former serving as writer and the latter as lead illustrator; the fourth and seventh issues of the comic book were respectively drawn by Bengal and Nathan Gooden rather than Putri. Dark Knights of Steel consists of twelve issues released by DC Comics at monthly intervals, the first being published on November 2, 2021. A special issue, Tales from the Three Kingdoms, featuring three stories set in the Dark Knights of Steel world prior to the main plot, was released on September 6, 2022, written by Taylor, Jay Kristoff and C. S. Pacat.
A six-issue spin-off titled Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter was published in September 2024, and is written by Jay Kristoff with art by Tirso Cons. The series reimagines the assassin Slade Wilson, aka Deathstroke, as a Norse Viking.
Fleeing the destruction of Krypton, Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van crash-land on Earth and are confronted by archers from a nearby castle. Jor-El destroys them with his heat vision as his son, Kal-El, is born. In the nearby Kingdom of Storms, peasant John Constantine has a vision of demons who will conquer the world, which King Jefferson Pierce has documented.
Nineteen years later, knight Bruce Wayne, his servant and companion Alfred Pennyworth, Richard Grayson, Duke Thomas, Jason Todd, and Stephanie Brown are sent to capture a banshee. The party locates the banshee, Dinah Lance, and captures her. Dinah is taken back to the castle, where she is imprisoned in a dungeon along with other magical beings. Jor-El reveals to Bruce that he is his father. In a nearby forest, Oliver Queen, an outlaw and Thomas Wayne's former courtier, receives an enchanted arrow from the Green Man. Using the arrow, he shoots and kills Jor-El.
The Green Man visits Jefferson and Constantine, now an accomplished magician, and informs them that Jor-El is dead. General Amanda Waller insists on a declaration of war, but jester Harleen Quinzel and Alfred counsel against this. On the nearby island of Amazonia, Queen Hippolyta learns of Jor-El's death from the priestess Lois. She goes to the sparring field to inform Jor-El's estranged daughter Zala Jor-El and her lover, Hippolyta's daughter Diana. Zala flies off enraged, with Lois and Diana fearing that the war they have been trying to prevent is now inevitable. Zala then murders Jefferson's son, Prince Jacob, in front of him.
Jefferson and Constantine travel to Amazonia, where they meet with Hippolyta, Diana, Lois, and Philippus and inform them of Jacob's death. He admits that he had Jor-El killed and reveals that Zala was responsible for murdering his son, which Diana refuses to believe. Despite this, Hippolyta promises him Amazonia's support in the coming war, causing Diana to leave. As Jefferson sails home, he reveals that having Diana removed from the Amazon court was a part of his plan due to her loyalty to the El family. Zala then ambushes and murders the king, who orders Constantine to ensure that Princess Anissa Pierce succeeds him.
Alfred explains to Bruce that, when the Els originally arrived on Earth, they hid so that their alien nature would not be revealed. When a nearby volcano threatened to destroy the kingdom, they devised a way to prevent it and gave these plans to Alexander Luthor, Thomas and Martha's chancellor, who ignored their warning. The Els were forced to expose themselves to save the kingdom and became lifelong friends of the Waynes. Luthor, stripped of his titles, finds a magical ring that twists his sanity, and he attacks the royal carriages, killing the Waynes. Before she dies, Martha anoints Lara as queen and asks her to raise Bruce. Alfred then tells Bruce that they must avoid war with the Kingdom of Storms at any cost.
