Checkmate #30

In "Knight Beat," Harry’s hearing takes a tense turn as a new Knight stumbles into Cypher’s trap—unaware of the danger. Meanwhile, Lionel and Winston go off the grid, raiding Cypher’s office in search of answers, pushing the stakes higher in a game where trust is the first casualty. Written by Paul Kupperberg and brought to life by Steve Erwin’s art, Michael Bair’s inks, Julianna Ferriter’s colors, and Jonnie Mac’s letters, this 1990 DC issue delivers sharp pacing and mounting tension. The cover by Steve Erwin and Michael Bair captures the moment’s intensity, a 1.50 USD (1.85 CAD, 0.80 GBP) snapshot of a story where every move could be a betrayal.
