Checkmate #8 – Vol. 2 (2007) continues the razor-sharp political intrigue that has defined this acclaimed DC Comics run. Written by the incomparable Greg Rucka with atmospheric pencils by Jesus Saiz, this issue delves even deeper into the complex web of loyalty, deception, and global threat that keeps the clandestine agency at the centre of the DC Universe.

Titled “Pawn 502, Part Two,” this chapter follows the fallout of a high-stakes extraction mission gone wrong. With tensions escalating between rival factions within Checkmate, the power dynamics become more perilous than ever. As Black Queen Amanda Waller sharpens her political manoeuvring and White King Alan Scott questions the organisation's ethics, readers are drawn into a world where every decision can spark international consequences.

This issue perfectly captures the balance between espionage and superhero drama, offering a story that’s as intellectually thrilling as it is emotionally charged. The internal conflicts, global stakes, and personal dilemmas all contribute to a richly layered narrative that stands out in DC’s publishing catalogue.
