Lobo
Character » Lobo appears in 1130 issues.
The last of the Czarnians, Lobo is known and feared across the universe as a bounty hunter who never misses his mark. Super-strong, immortal and unstoppable, the Main Man has frequently clashed with Superman, although they have on occasion found themselves on the same side.
Lobo's On A Highway To Hell
Where has Lobo been lately? The last time I recall seeing him was during 52. On the other hand, I do think it's good we haven't seen too much of him. While I've always enjoyed Lobo's antics, it can get old if seen too much. I get that he's such a badass but sometimes he just comes across as a novelty. That shouldn't be what the character is about.
DC announced yesterday that come November, we will be treated with a two-issue prestige format series. It will be written by Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian and drawn by Sam Kieth. We are being promised Lobo at his best (or worst?). Let's hope he does return to the bad, evil character he should be. Lobo should not be watered or toned down.
What's your take on Lobo? Is too cliche? Do you enjoy his character? Do you agree that he can take on pretty much anyone? Are you going to pick up this series?
I've only seen Lobo on the Superman animated series and liked him then
O yeah, the art looks intense!!!
I love Lobo but I can definitely see that having too much Lobo wouldn't be hard to do. His old monthly got a little repetitive.
Considering how damn unstoppable he is in his unwatered-down form (don't forget he beat Superman within an inch of his life) he would be annoying if he was mixed in with the rest of the DCU on a regular basis. So I think these occasional comics are probably the best for The Main Man, that way he can spend the rest of his time with his fishies.
Sam Kieth is the creator/artist for the Maxx." the art is reminiscent of the maxx "
i didnt know scott ian was writing comic books....
ive never read a lobo book...it might just have to look into this....
Hmmm Scott Ian huh? I like to see what his writing abilities will be like.....At first I wasn't a fan of Lobo, but then he grew on me and now I'm a fan of Lobo.
I thought this was a sweet fan film that Andrew Brynarksi did to try to get a an actual Lobo movie going. I like how he used the Paramilitary Christmas Special storyline. Btw there is some vulgarity in this fan film
Wow, Scott Ian!?!? Anthrax is one of my favorite bands. I knew they were into comics becuase of their song "I Am The Law", a song about Judge Dredd, but I didn't know they were this much into comics.
