Human Target (2027 Edition) - by Len Wein & Peter Johnson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Where in the world is Christopher Chance? This high-octane Human Target adventure from comics legend Len Wein and superstar Nightwing artist Bruno Redondo returns to print!

Christopher Chance is the Human Target--part bodyguard, part maverick. Hired to protect the pursued, he puts himself in the line of fire for his clients, risking life and limb to keep them, and himself, alive.

When Chance takes an assignment to deliver a Mafia informant to the U.S. government, however, he ends up on a worldwide scavenger hunt. In order to take down a powerful organized crime syndicate, Chance must accompany a mafia don across Europe and Asia collecting well-concealed evidence. With an army of dangerous mob hit men, all sworn to protect their family, chasing Chance and his client across continents, can he deliver the snitch to the Feds in one piece? And will the Human Target survive his transformation into a moving target?

Originally released to coincide with the 2010-2011 Human Target television series, this volume collects Human Target #1-6, written by the title character's co-creator Len Wein and illustrated by Bruno Redondo (Nightwing).
