| | Amazon.ca: Challengers of the Unknown: Books: Howard Chaykin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | Chaykin, updater of such other DC properties as the Shadow and the Blackhawks, radically retools here. |
 | | Retaining just the title and the "borrowed time" premise, he uses those as pegs for a mixture of over-the-top action, macho derring-do, and smartass social satire at the expense of terrorism, media manipulation, and Fox News. |
 | | Chaykin's Challengers are disparate rebels (industrial saboteur, hip-hop artist, muckraking blogger, etc.) who, unbeknownst to themselves, have been turned into genetically enhanced professional killers. |
