Lobo #60

Something is very wrong with the Main Man — and the cover of Lobo #60 (March 1999) makes sure you know it. Luzniak and Propst depict a leering, wild-haired Lobo tearing open his leather jacket to reveal a purple-and-yellow superhero costume underneath, chains dangling from one fist and dark ravens swirling at his sides, while a starburst caption demands, "The Main Man Gone Good…?! Say It Ain't So, 'Bo!" The premise alone — Lobo swapping his trademark mayhem for nonviolent heroics — is the kind of gleefully absurd concept that writer Alan Grant could squeeze for every last drop of comedy, and this cover sells the joke with perfectly unhinged energy.
