How do you police a world of immensely powerful superheroes - and villains? "Checkmate" has the answer; a group of government operatives, superheroes and spies, dedicated to keeping the world safe - even if they operate in darkness! Radically revised after the death of insane former leader Maxwell Lord, an all-new "Checkmate" has mobilised, including Mr Terrific, Fire, former Green Lantern Alan Scott, spy mistress Amanda Waller, and many more. Their first mission? To survive their first week, as supervillain group Kobra and political enemies try to close them down!
