Dark Knights of Steel is a miniseries published by DC Comics, written by Tom Taylor with art by Yasmine Putri. It follows Batman and Superman in a fantasy reimagining of the DCU.Nineteen years ago, a rocket crashed into a medieval Earth, carrying the aliens Jor-El and his pregnant wife Lara. The couple found shelter with King Thomas and Queen Martha, and when Thomas and Martha died, Jor-El and Lara became the new king and queen, as Martha's only son Bruce was a bastard.The House of El prospers, but in the Kingdom of Storms, King Jefferson and his court magician John have seen a dire prophecy that demons from another world will conquer the world. They believe Jor-El and his progeny to be these demons. When someone arranges for Jor-El to be assassinated, a war brews between the two kingdoms.A spinoff series called Allwinter, starring Deathstroke, was announced for July 2024. |

Ambiguous Situation |
| | Dark Knights of Steel (Comic Book) / int_1f6983f7 |
comment |
Ambiguous Situation: Everyone who knows Zala views her actions as not making sense of her. While Diana is biased in arguing this is morally not what her lover would do, even the objective Lois is confused about how her actions do not make any sense for her motive (e.g., she made not attempt to harm Jefferson or take apart his castle, instead killing his son who had nothing to do with Jor-El's death). Later, when confronted with this accusation, Zala is both genuinely baffled and horrified by it. There is also how later somebody resembling Kal handles kryptonite to no ill-effect to similarly do a horrible deed, suggesting perhaps a shapeshifter is in play. This is resolved when it comes to light that the Els were being impersonated by White Martians. |

comment |
Batman Gambit: While meeting with Queen Hippolyta and her daughter Diana, King Jefferson loudly accuses Zala of murdering his son and demands that the Amazons stand with him in any potential war with the House of El. This naturally angers Diana, Zala's lover, who leaves Amazonia and defects to the Els. Afterwards, John asks Jefferson if it was really such a good idea to send the most powerful Amazon flying into the arms of their enemies. Jefferson points out that this also effectively removes the House of El's strongest supporter from Amazonia and effectively makes her a traitor to the Amazons, making it that much easier for the Amazons to countenance an alliance with the Kingdom of Storms. |

Honor Before Reason: Due to the medieval nature of the world. Bruce especially suffers from it and apparently, his mother and stepfather had the same problem. Amanda Waller does not accept forging an alliance with the other two kingdoms to fend off the White Martians, citing the deaths inflicted upon them, even though it was revealed to be conflict stoked by the White Martians. She goes behind Lara's back to parlay with Protex. |

He starts to rethink his views on the issue after the Teen Titans save his life and he discovers that he has powers himself. |

Out-of-Character Alert: Numerous examples on the side of the Els. In such scenarios, they claim to be interested in conquest (something they never are in private) and openly revel in murder. These moments are key to the implication that there is something very wrong. This is because they are not Kryptonians at all, but rather White Martians pretending to be the Els. |

comment |
Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: It just would not be a tale with Amanda Waller in it without her having this. A lot of the murder and mayhem that happens through the story is the result of her plotting with the White Martians to kill all of the superhumans of the court, trading the conquered territories in exchange for her own kingdom to be safe, and of course killing the Martians when they are satisfied. The plot ends with her being the only one still standing, obviously plotting further backstabbing. |

Ambiguously Evil |
| | Dark Knights of Steel (Comic Book) / int_853b7948 |
comment |
Ambiguously Evil: Constantine's prophecy describes the Els as demons come to conquer the world. Jor-El does order all metahumans in his kingdom imprisoned without trial, but he otherwise appears to be The Good King. It's not clear if he's a Villain with Good Publicity or just overzealous about security. |

Wham Episode: Issue 9. The subjects of Constantine's prophecy turn out to be the White Martians, who have been pinning everything on the Els due to being able to get away with similar powers. Meanwhile, Alfred is actually J'onn J'onzz, and the war he is the only survivor of was that of the Green Martians versus the White Martians |

No-Sell: Two that foreshadow the fact that the subjects are not Kryptonians at all. When Jefferson attacks Zala with lightning, she shrugs it off so completely that she says it simply "tickles," a statement that is particularly odd given all Earth-based superpowers seem to be magic-based (something Kryptonians are notoriously vulnerable toward). At one point, Kal-El effortlessly handles kryptonite, despite it being particularly debilitating most of the time. |

Jefferson Pierce is killed by a White Martian claiming to be Zala. In the backstory, Thomas Wayne was slain by the Green Man, who had been hoping to hit the Els' carriage but picked the wrong one.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: King Jefferson's concerns about the Els are understandable, seeing as their arrival was accompanied by a suitably ominous prophecy that seems to suggest they are less than benevolent. His response, arranging for Jor-El to be assassinated, is a bit extreme by anyone's standards. |
