Who is the baddest dude in the whole DC Universe? A few hints: He's pasty and mean! He's got a sweet chopper and a huge meat hook! He has a serious attitude problem and he's not afraid to flaunt it!! He's the main man and the last Czarnian!! You know him and fear him!!! Lobo!
Yes Lobo, the roughest and toughest bounty hunter in all of space and time, is on the scene in Green Lantern #55, and you know that's gonna be bad news for someone. In this issue, the somewhat questionable Red Lantern Atrocitus (Did his alien parents really think it was a good idea to name their kid Atrocitus? That is never going to end well.) has had a price put on his head, and Lobo shows up to collect. Unfortunately, having Lobo and Atrocitus fighting it out in crowded city streets is probably not the best thing for health and safety of the citizenry. Luckily, a whole bunch of other, nicer, Lantern people show up to save the day and limit the damage.
Admittedly, I don't think I've ever actually read a whole issue of Green Lantern before, so I don't really know who most of these characters are, and this issue really is kind of in mid-story, so there were some elements that I didn't really get. But the beauty of this book is that, even if you don't know these characters, it's LOADS of fun to watch Lobo beat them up. And I'm pretty sure any Green Lantern fan is going to enjoy watching Hal Jordan steal Lobo's ride. Plus, Lobo's dog fights Atrocitus' awesome Red Lantern cat. I didn't know the Lanterns handed out rings to animals, but I can totally support the idea of more super-powered pets. I mean, what could possibly go wrong with that idea?
To sum up. If you are a Green Lantern fan, you need to see what happens when the Lanterns face the violent and angry threat of Lobo busting up their streets. If you aren't a fan, then you really don't want to miss the love child (Allegedly!) of Superman and Wolverine smashing their brightly colored, flying glow fairy faces in. It's a win-win!
So, hop on your space-hog and head on over to Four Color Fantasies where Green Lantern #55 is our guaranteed Book of the Week. Did I mention this book has Lobo in it? Well, it does. Lots of Lobo! So read it or else!
