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 had a remarkable career until his latest case protecting Lex Luthor, when things go sideways. An assassination attempt Chance didn't see coming leaves him vulnerable and trying to solve his own murder, and he has twelve days to discover just who poisoned him. After discovering clues, the death of a Green Lantern, and a torrid romance with Tora Olafsdotter (a.k.a. Ice), DC's top bodyguard may meet his match when Beatriz da Costa (otherwise known as Fire) steps into his life. Only time will tell what secrets this flaming femme fatale might hold and just how badly the Human Target might get burned. The Human Target is a hard-boiled, gritty story in the vein of classic detective noirs, told by bestselling and critically acclaimed creators Tom King and Greg Smallwood! Collects THE HUMAN TARGET #7-12.
