About the series
A single oversized 1995 special from DC Comics, The Lobo Gallery: Portraits of a Bastich is exactly what its title promises: a showcase of the Main Man's many faces, rendered by a murderer's row of top-tier artists. Anchored by a story from frequent Lobo scribe Alan Grant and penciler Derec Aucoin, the issue is a celebratory pin-up book, collecting portraits and short vignettes that capture the character's ultra-violent, sardonic spirit. It's a time capsule of the mid-90s Lobo craze, a testament to his unlikely popularity as a parody of grim-and-gritty antiheroes.
