Smallwood delivers on every page page and with every panel. The art is as immersive as the story and there are pages that make you feel like you're there with the characters. Read Full Review
This isn't a story where the killer is unmasked and gives a megalomaniacal speech about why they did it. This isn't about finding a villain. It's about finding the truth, no matter how much pain it causes. Read Full Review
The Human Target doesnt miss. Every single issue of this series has been compelling and expertly crafted by Tom King, Greg Smallwood and Clayton Cowles. The story is excellent, the art is amazing and the lettering is astoundingly great. This is one of the best comics DC is publishing and I cant wait for what the finale is going to bring!

It's fair to say that this issue is the Ice spotlight, with Ice's post-resurrection motivations being dug into in more detail than what we saw in the second issue. To be honest, the duo-chrome coloring in the flashbacks were a bit of a detriment, I felt like they actually muddled the flashback sequences a bit. Read Full Review
The Human Target #11 treads water, waiting for the series to end. It's beautiful, engaging water treading, but it's still water treading, leaving you to conclude King got 12 issues to tell a 6-issue story. Read Full Review
This wasn't the normal slog that so much of this series has been, but it still managed to feel too little too late in terms of making The Human Target a worthwhile and compelling mystery. Read Full Review
Smallwood is unparalleled.
This issue felt surprisingly ordinary most of the way through, but that was one powerful ending. I'll admit, I think I was expecting something a little more, I don't know...shocking? But I guess that's one thing about Tom King books...they're not always big, bombastic stories with loads of action and epic moments. They're ordinary. They're REAL. And that's one reason why I think King's stories always tend to stick with me long after I finish them. With one issue to go, I have a feeling this one is gonna stick with me too.
Greg Smallwood deserves an Eisner for this series. He deserves several Eisners.
The DRAMA.
Also this cover has to be my favorite, it is GORGEOUS.
The somber emotions are well done but it's not as impactful as it should be. It's going for a different take but I'm just not fully invested. Smallwood makes it read beautifully.
Great artwork and a pretty good script by Tom King make this a good penultimate issue. I think the series lacks excitement, but it has pretty good emotional beats.
