As someone who has never read a Lobo comic, what is his appeal?
>>151714250Being a massive strong invincible space biker with super healing who beats people up for fun and profit and fucks hot bitches all day errey day. It's peak male power fantasy.No faggy lol me so beta and self depricating. He's litterally male pride power fantasy with some bugs bunny tier slapstick thrown in.Simple asAnd with him being off colored with no racial connections he can be easily shown as a cool character for a large majority of males and mastubation tool for women...and yes lgbtqa.He's the litteral embarassing thing that men like that women roll their eyes about but secretly like that men like it.
>>151714250Wolverine if he wasn't a giant faggot manletDawg is cool too
>>151714289What the fuck were they thinking?
Why do you people need to have shit explained to you beforehand? You're already interested in reading Lobo, so just do it instead of thinking you need any other reason to do so.
>>151714250Just read it.
Hijacking thread. Hoping Supergirl means DC will give Lobo a new book
>>151714250He's the best parts of the 90's edge era of comics, and he's a great Heel and all around comedic badass. He's the Main Man.
>>151716627Also he was banned from Heaven and Hell.
>>151714250Gag series, just like Harley Quinn.
>>151714250Read the one with Bisley art and find out. It's really fun.
>>151714250Character design and czarnian backstoryI was surprised when they introduced more czarnians and were all great, like Lobo's scholl teacher
>>151714250hes funni
>>151714250He molest sexy girls
>>151714250It's a satire taken seriously by the fans it was meant to satirize
>>151714250Idk. I guess some people really love the biker look? Everything I've ever read with him in is just the same story (Lobo is hired to do a thing) and his dialogue is just the same pg swear word replacements repeated with everything he says. Nothing about him is interesting. Feels like he should be in a few issues of 2000AD and forgotten about and not a DC regular.
>>151716545Skottie Young is writing it, Jorge Corona is the artist on it. Out next year.
>>151714250You are a 12yo boy and want to read this comic about a big guy that says FUCK YOU to all rules and just beat the shit out of people. That's it, there's not mystery, it's just Rule of Cool. Some people stop reading after they grow up, others still like it for what it is - and then some few retards thinks this shit is serious and sacred and will try to start a fight if you laugh at them or bring up things like Lobo vs Hitman.
>>151714250I don't get it either, he is a very dated parody of a trend from 30 years ago, and his comedic sociopath tone doesn't really fit in DC
>>151714250Watch the web series. You'll understand very quickly
Satirical enough to be smart, badass enough to be cool. Alan Grant noted that the market that seem to take Lobo best was south America because they both like machismo but also making a joke of it.
>>151714799Trying to be different. But that was barely a couple issues or so before they went back to the return of the main man. Lobo is too fun otherwise. I don't want a bishounen pretty boy, I want a grizzled goblin man who fucks and kills for fun.
>>151715066See:>>151714799There's so much stupid shit out there for every single character that you need a roadmap to read their most influential agreed upon intepretations to make sense of them.
Really entertaining macho comics. It borders on parody, but it's written and drawn in a cool way, and it's impossible to make it uncool.
>>151719530I'm from Brazil and every Lobo fan I've met was fucking nuts. But hey, you don't get to be among the countries with more machismo killings if your favourite comic is Peanuts.
>>151718601Nobody ever though bikers were cool except for bikers themselves.
Are the comics actually funny or obviously parody? They look like they take themselves pretty seriously
>>151714250Take the Orks from Warhammer 40k and Fantasy and make a american white extremist fantasy out of him being a near villainous dork who makes fun of comicbook cliches and sometimes himself.He walked so Deadpool and Harley can run. And boy did they run ahead of him nowadays.
>>151720943Kek, that's true. And this coming from me who, as a kid, wanted to lose a limb to become a cyborg.
>>151714250Who wrote him better Giffen or Grant?
It's not complicated, he's the main man.
>>151722780They both wrote him at the same time
>>151714799Trend chasing, to see if they could capture a new audience. That was literally what the New 52 was.
>>151717602Do you have reason to think that or are you just deconstruction addicted?
>>151723682New 52 was copying Marvel and it made everything inherently worse, thank god for Doomsday Clock and Death Metal.
