History
Target Comics debuted with a premiere issue cover-dated February 1940, but it was not until issue #10 (Nov. 1940) that the Target first appeared; the two Targeteers were introduced the following issue. The characters were created by Dick Briefer, using the pseudonym Dick Hamilton. The Targeteers appeared in Target Comics through issue #95; Target itself ended with issue #105.
In 1999, the Target appeared without his partners in issue #24 of the AC Comics title Men of Mystery Comics. In 2008, the Target and the Targeteers were among the many public domain characters to appear in Project Superpowers, a miniseries from Dynamite Entertainment. The heroes were given new powers in this series. Also in 2008, issue #2 of the Age of Adventure comic Legendary Heroes featured reprints of Golden Age stories of Target and the Targeteers.
