Whew. What a whirlwind. While there was absolutely no action this issue, like any good spook drama, you have to have some good political drama to set up the spying. That is what this issue has. GREAT Political drama and manuverings trying to keep Checkmate alive, after it was dissolved last issue, and some dirty happenings inside Checkmate. Mr. Terrific is the P.I.M.P.!!!!!
"Tell me you weren't out here all night?"
"Nah, It'd have made me jealous. So they call him Mr. Terrific for a reason, then?"
Now that Alias is off the air, and Lost is on hiatus till the fall, I can get some good drama from Checkmate. If you liked Greg Rucka on Gotham Central check this book out! Can't wait for the next issue. A+
Checkmate is alright...I don't know. I said I'd give this series at least a shot but, so far it's just not putting it out there. I'll give it one more issue but, the story has got to pick up a little.
Yeah I really agree with Nick. I haven't picked this up but I have read a little bit, and I hated Omac project and his Adventures of, I don't think I'm a fan of his writting, its to bland and slow for me.
I like it. I'm with knightwingbk. I love seeing an old cast being used. It is probably my favorite book out this past week.
