DC Comics & Checkmate #6 Spoilers: What Are Fates Of Former Manhunter Mark Shaw & Leviathan?!

News, Spoilers

DC Comics and Checkmate #6 Spoilers follows.

What Are Fates Of Former Manhunter Mark Shaw…

…and Leviathan?!

Lois Lane and her new-found brother Leo Lane aka Daemon Rose…

…attack Mark Shaw aka Leviathan and…

…two heads are better than one.

Shaw is whisked away by his codenamesake organization Leviathan who…

…unceremoniously removes him of his tech, removes him as their leader and removes the life from his body?!

Talia al Ghul reassumed the mantle of Leviathan leader…

…bequeathing the gift of immortality to her most loyal followers.

The book ends with Daemon Rose on the outside of his family looking in.

This fate of Mark Shaw and of Leviathan follows Checkmate #6’s unmasking of Mister King (full spoilers here); which followed 2019’s Event Leviathan #6 unmasking of Leviathan as Mark Shaw (full spoilers here).

Also, for folks wondering where I got the banner for this piece.

It’s a combo of Mark Shaw’s Manhunter mask from 1988 and…

…his Leviathan persona variant cover to 2019’s Event Leviathan #6.

Hopefully, Shaw can return from the grave and be redeemed after the character’s mishandling in these recent years.
