Who the hell is Lobo?

Well ya ever-lovin' bastich, he's an almost unkillable, bloodthirsty, over-the-top spa🌜ce biker bounty hunter with a foul mouth and a love for a fine cigar. And if you're part of the cosmic criminal underworld in the DC Universe, you know him as the Main Man, the Last Czarnian, and the guy who's eitheℱr gonna frag you or turn you in for a bounty at the first chance he gets.

And right now, he's the topic of hot goss among DC movie fans, with the news breaking today that former Aquaman star Jason Momoa has been cast as Lobo in the new DC movie universe, and will make his debut in 2026's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow movie alongside star Milly Alcock.

Momoa taking on this particular part has been the subject of rumor and speculation for several years now. The actor said in an interview during the press tour for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom that "If they [DC] ever call me and ask me to play, or ask me to aud𒁃ition, I'm there." Today, Momoa re-posted that quote along with the ca🍃ption: "They called."

So what's the big deal with Lobo?

For one thing, he's kinda like DC's answer to both Deadpool and Wolverine rolled into one (which is probably exactly what 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:James Gunn said when pitching the movie, if it is indeed on the table). By which we mean he's got an almost indestructible healing factಞor and a willingness to shred through his enemies with vicious fervor, and he's also got a kinda hilarious 𝕴potty mouth (with spacey terms like 'bastich' often used to replace actual curse words) and a very non-superheroic appetite for vice.

Lobo was created by Roger Sifer and Keith Giffen back in 1983's Omega Men #3, and first hit the scene as more of a straightforward villain (thoꦦugh his sorta resemblance to Wolverine was already in place right away).

At first Lobo made the ro﷽unds as a guest star, introducing his origin as the last member of a warrior race known as the Czarnians who are supposedly able to regenerate their entire body from a single drop of blood.

Readers took to Lobo quickly, and he soon evolved into a fan favorite anti-hero, developing the badass space biker aesthetic that's been his calling card since – along with his satirical take on the X-Treme '90s ant꧋i-heroes that became popular throughout the decade.

In recent years, Lobo has been an unlikely member of the Justice League of America, and has even discovered he's got a half-Czarnian daughter named Crush who🍷 is also a bounty hunter 💞as well as a former member of the Teen Titans. The pair recently co-starred in a comic appropriately titled Crush and Lobo in which the father and daughter reconnect.

If a hard-edged space bounty hunter reconnecting with his equally-lethal daughter sounds exactly like it's up James Gunn's alley, Lobo is one of the first characters we thought of when Gunn's new pos༺ition 🌼as co-CEO of DC Films was announced. And while the character making his debut in Sup♏ergirl: Woman of Tomorrow perhaps suggests more of a supporting role than lead, you have to imagine the dooღr is open to many more appearances should the Ultimate Bastich prove popular.

Lobo had his heyday in the '90s, when Marvel and DC went 'EXTREME'.
