Lobo Vol. 2

The Main Man is dead. Probably. Maybe. Either way, the universe will never be the same.

The Next Level reinvention of DC’s most notorious antihero continues as Lobo faces the one thing no one thought possible: the end.

For years, Lobo has survived impossible battles, cosmic disasters, and just about every bad decision imaginable. But now a relentless new force has emerged with a mission no one has ever completed—killing the Main Man for good. As old enemies close in and a deadly chain of events unfolds across the galaxy, even Lobo may have finally met his match.

But if Lobo is really gone, who’s left to fill the void? As friends, rivals, and enemies grapple with his absence, the legend of the universe’s most feared bounty hunter grows even larger. Unfortunately for everyone involved, death may be only the beginning of Lobo’s problems.

From writer Skottie Young and artist Jorge Corona, Lobo Vol. 2 delivers outrageous action, dark comedy, cosmic mayhem, and an unforgettable new chapter in the saga of DC’s most unpredictable antihero.
