When the Black King of Checkmate is assassinated by an operative of the chaos loving terrorist cult of Kobra, a deadly countdown begins that draws all the disparate threads of the United Nations' dedicated metahuman response organisation together! With their backs against the wall, both Checkmate Black and Checkmate White must chase down the evil on their doorsteps, while brand new pieces begin to come into play as a new royal ascends to the highest seat available in the group's hierarchy!
E04-E05: "Travels with Myself and Another"
Written by House Of Mystery
(Please click on the names of our artists to view their DeviantArt galleries)
After the ascension of a new Black King to their number, Checkmate's lives begin to return to some semblance of normality, even if normal for their number means something else entirely. An investigation into missing Checkmate assets from questionable their days as a US-exclusive agency leads to explosive consequences for a pair of White Knights and an interloper, and an off-the-books meeting between the Black Queen and the new Black King leaves the latter out the cold and with little recourse if the world needs to call upon his services. Meanwhile, the White King has doubts about his position in the world of super powered and brightly garbed good guys and bad guys, and the White Queen predicts that trouble is on the horizon for the Justice League if a much-rumoured United Nations Security Council vote comes to fruition...
