How Many Fighting Styles Does Lobo Know in the Paramilitary Christmas Special 1992

 


The Main Man, Lobo himself, jumps headfirst into the Comic Book Dojo to slice and dice his way through his very own X-Mas book called the Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special!  Join us for a look at all of the irreverence, depravity and gory glory within! 


Lobo is a character appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. The Lobo character was created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen, and he first appeared in Omega Men #3 (June 1983). Lobo is an alien from the utopian planet of Czarnia, and he works as an interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter.


Lobo was first introduced as a hardened villain in the 1980s, but he soon fell out of use with writers. He remained in limbo until his revival as a bounty hunter with his own comic in the early 1990s. Writers attempted to use Lobo as a parody of the 1990s trend towards "grim and gritty" superhero stories, but he was instead enthusiastically accepted by fans of the trend. This popularity led to the character having a much higher profile in DC Comics stories from then on, as well as starring roles in various series in the decades since.


Lobo made his live-action debut in the 2019 premiere episode of the second season of the television series Krypton, portrayed by Emmett J. Scanlan.
