If you're a Lobo fan, you've probably been looking forward to the upcoming Villain's Month one-shot written by Marguerite Bennett with art by Ben Oliver. We've seen Lobo in the New 52 before, but it seems that one was an impostor. DC Comics has debuted a new Lobo design by Superman artist Kenneth Rocafort, and the Villain's Month book will pull back the truth.
"The Lobo you’ve seen so far in the New 52 is not who you think he is," said DC Comics Editor-in-Chief Bob Harras on the DC blog. "In this one-shot, you’ll be introduced to the real Lobo. A ruthless killer, Lobo is on a quest to kill the man who has taken his name."
He continued, "This Lobo is equal parts strong, vicious, and driven. There’s a darker and more logical idea about what a force of nature like him is capable of. After all, this is someone who can infiltrate high society, fly a space ship, and adhere to a very specific moral code that’s not your typical anti-hero one. Oh, and, this one-shot takes place very far away from Earth. And when I say very far away, I mean it takes place literally on the other side of the galaxy."
"In this design, Ken updated Lobo’s facial tattoos and weaponry by adding laser edges to his blades and gloves that’ll give him extra strength with their mechanical usage. In the end, Ken transformed Lobo into a lean, mean killing machine."
For comparison, here's some other designs that they didn't go with:
