Lobo (1990 1st Series DC) 1A.D VF- 7.5 1st Printing
Starts Dec 22 Direct Edition. His name is Lobo. His job is intergalactic bounty hunter. His methods are insane. From the pages of L.E.G.I.O.N. '90 comes the wild, unchained, devil-may-care character you love to hate in his first solo mini-series. And if you thought he was out of control before, wait until you see what happens here. You see, Lobo is the last survivor of his race...an entire civilization that he personally annihilated just because he wanted to be unique in the universe. But Lobo seems to have missed one, and now that survivor's gone and written an unauthorized biography of Lobo, which doesn't make our maniac very happy. But what's really got Lobo miffed is that he's accepted a contract from L.E.G.I.O.N. to escort his biographer across the universe to their headquarters - delivered alive! Of course, Lobo manages to make a few enemies along the way, complicating his mission as these factions embark on a wild chase across the cosmos to see who will get to Lobo first. Written by Keith Giffen and Alan Grant, with art and painted cover by Simon Bisley. New Format. Cover price $0.99.
