The Bounty Hunter From Czarnia
Lobo first appeared in the DC Comic Omega Man#3 in June 1983. He was introduced as a villain with exceptional strength and fortitude. Though he is a person who lives up to his promises and no more than he promised he is a self-centered and arrogant man who enjoys violence, intoxication, and killing.
Lobo is the last of his kind because having committed genocide in Czarnia for fun is often compared with Superman in terms of strength. It is said that Lobo will give Superman a run for his money on a good day. He was originally portrayed with trimmed purple-grey hair which later turned long, grey-black rocker hair.
The Czarnian bounty hunter is said to be the trickiest character in the DCU with his superhuman strength, his ability to clone himself, and also his powerful sense of smell to track down his bounty across galaxies.
