Great for DC lovers I purchased this book because of the Checkmate portion of the book. I was not disappointed with any part of it. All the characters are really interesting and fun to watch. It was really interesting to see how Nightwing and Sasha Bordeaux worked together. If you enjoy either of these books I would recommend looking at this one.
