- Title: The Human Target #8
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Tom King
- Artist: Greg Smallwood
Another day passes in the life of Christopher Chance, but this one isn’t spent with Ice or looking into his murder. Instead, Chance loses a full day to former JLI member Rocket Red kidnaps Chance looking for answers about what has happened to his old friend Guy Gardner. Treated far from friendly by Dmitri, Chance gives up no information about Gardner, Chance’s condition, or his recent discovery.
More brutal than the previous issues, The Human Target #8 is a little hard to read as it’s mostly Chance being tortured, losing conciousness, waking up later and having events repeat. By the end of the issue Rocket Red seems to be content, although Chance appears in no mood to let bygones be bygones after losing one of the remaining days of his life to the Russian hero’s madness.
