2023 Eisner Nominee - Best Writer, Tom King
Christopher Chance has made a living out of being a human target—a man hired to disguise himself as his client to invite would-be assassins to attempt his murder. He's enjoyed a remarkable career until his latest case protecting Lex Luthor takes an unexpected turn.
An assassination attempt Chance didn't foresee leaves him vulnerable and racing against the clock to solve his own murder, as he has only 12 days to discover who poisoned him. Amid uncovering clues, the death of a Green Lantern, and a passionate romance with Tora Olafsdottir, a.k.a. Ice, DC's top bodyguard faces a new challenge when Beatriz da Costa, otherwise known as Fire, enters his life.
Time will tell what secrets this fiery femme fatale might conceal, and just how severely The Human Target might get burned.
The Human Target is a hard-boiled, gritty story in the tradition of classic detective noirs, expertly crafted by bestselling and critically acclaimed creators Tom King and Greg Smallwood!
