Crush & Lobo #4
In "Poke Poke," Mariko Tamaki and Amancay Nahuelpan deliver a sharp, high-stakes twist on familial bonds and identity, as Crush finds herself trapped in her father Lobo’s prison persona after his bio-scan is transferred to her. With the prison system now treating her as the notorious inmate, she must prove she’s not Lobo before a deadly device detonates—only fifty Earth-hours to clear her name and survive. Amy Reeder’s cover captures the tension perfectly, as Crush stands at the center of a system that sees her as someone else entirely.

During their last-issue visit, prison inmate 2981 (aka Lobo) has planted his bio-scan monitor onto his daughter Crush – their common Czarnian DNA making this possible. Now, all prison scan systems and robots regard Crush as inmate Lobo, while the Main Man bails on his daughter and casually strolls out of the prison to ill-gotten freedom. Crush resigns herself to prison life until she maneuvers herself into a situation where medical scanners confirm that she is not Lobo. The prison administrator gives Crush 50 Earth-hours to return Lobo to prison, or an attached device will blow her to atoms.
