Lobo (DC Comics)
Lobo is a fictional character appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. He was created by Roger Slifer and Keith Giffen, and first appeared in ''Omega Men'' #3 (June 1983). He is an alien from the utopian planet of Czarnia, and 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. One of the key factors in this revival was the distinct and influential artwork of Simon Bisley, whose exaggerated and dynamic style helped redefine the character and significantly contributed to his popularity.
