There are so many great toys to be made here.

Love me some good merchandizing.

This is why people don't like telepaths.

So are we ever going to find out who Kara was on a date with? Sounds like it was a rando.

It was weird just having Brainiac 13 casually being part of the Legion of Brainiac. Like, that thing was a MAJOR threat and was ultimately only defeated by getting what it wanted. Ah well, alt-Universes and all that.

If they made a range of Brainiacs I would absolutely collect them!

Ha! Ms. Tribb was responsible for corralling Chacal. Wasn’t as lucky trying to stop Lobo.

I like how Williamson is fleshing out Czarnia by giving it a cultural history and creating a reason why it became a peaceful utopia.

Ugh. Waller .

In my head canon, I always assumed that there was some sort of secret about Tribb that made her a morally acceptable target for Lobo straight-up murdering her at the end of the first Lobo mini. 'Cause really, in a shared universe, you kind of have to sand down a *few* edges on Lobo if you don't want to constantly explain why Superman hasn't chucked him in space-prison.

I'm happy to see that my head canon may be drifting towards actual canon. Maybe it'll turn out to be Tribb, not Lobo, that was actually behind Czarnia's destruction. And Lobo killed her - not for vengeance, but to protect his rep. Or , at least, that's what he says.

Oh, I'd hate that. Sanding down the edges makes everyone less interesting.

The 'Bo was a true agent of chaos in his original run and Superman didn't chuck him in prison because he couldn't. They rarely interacted and when they did it was usually a fight until a greater threat rocked up.

Superman should despise everything Lobo stands for, and vice versa.

If Lobo will be important character in Gunn's universe then it is likely that Lobo's crimes will get retconed to some extent. After all, general public might have some problems with psychotic mass murderer being portrayed as a cool badass. Unlike comics readers.

That feels like something Gunn would do...don't pay attention to Yondu being a human trafficker, remember him being Peter Quill's daddy.

I thought OG Yondu was a member of the 30th century Guardians of the Galaxy?

He was, for sure!

Yeah, Momoa playing a badass over the top bounty hunter who kills for money would be acceptable to mainstream audiences (see Mandalorian) but comic book Lobo has committed genocide on his own people. That would be way too much for the average moviegoer to laugh off.

Lobo stomping his own dog to death was retconned by Johns when he appeared in an issue of Green Lantern. Other writers have had Dawg come back just to really cement the fact that that horrible scene didn’t happen in main continuity.

Kinda surprised Williamson didn’t have Dawg show up. Would be funny to see him team up with Krypto.

But going back to your point, I wouldn’t be surprised if an upcoming story shows that Lobo didn’t really kill all Czarnians for fun.
