The Human Target #4

In "Chapter 4: To This Great Stage of Fools!", Ted Kord finds himself at the center of a tense interrogation as Chance and Ice press him for answers about the failed assassination attempt on Lex Luthor—leaving Chance poisoned and on edge. As the trio ventures into the fray, Beetle and Ice take the lead in a high-stakes mission, drawing Chance deeper into their world of masked heroics. With chemistry simmering between Ice and Chance, their bond begins to shift in ways neither fully understands. Written by Tom King and illustrated in full by Greg Smallwood—whose distinctive art and bold inks and colors define the issue’s moody, cinematic tone—this chapter blends personal stakes with the weight of superhero duty. The cover, also by Smallwood, captures the moment’s intensity in sharp, expressive lines.
