Bunn's "Lobo" finished with Issue #6?

Not grabbed #6 yet, but noticed that there seemed to be no solits for an issue #7 during "Convergence." Has the series been canned already after a single arc?

All the regular books are on hold for two months during Convergence. Lobo resumes in June with everything else.

All the regular books are on hold for two months during Convergence . . .

. . . except for non-New 52 titles and some New 52 books that are having what was suppose to be a March issue pushed into April.

Ah righto. Cool. Cheers for the clarification.

[Cullen Bunn]

Ah righto. Cool. Cheers for the clarification.

Yeah, I'm working on the new arc right now.

Nice one. Cheers for personally clarifying the details yourself, Cullen. The new version IS growing on me a little. So I'm aboard for the ride.

In all seriousness though, I'm glad to see a Lobo series in The New 52. I might buy the first trade when it's out. Does this new series star the thin, short-haired New 52 Lobo, or the classic 'biker' Lobo?

This series stars the thin, short-haired Lobo.

This series stars the thin, short-haired Lobo.

Thanks Cullen. I really like the New Lobo's design, and look forward to reading the new series.

Slowly but surely, fans of the new version are appearing.

I think people who deny this design and attitude for Lobo aren't exactly sure what the point of Lobo really is. I believe the point of Lobo is to capture and satirize tropes that other publishers including DC are capitalizing off of, am I correct? In the case of the late 80s, it was the murderous, biking, hairy bulk of a man (pointing obvious fun at some of the popular Marvel characters such as Ghost Rider, Punisher, Wolverine, ect). In the case of the right now it's the sleek, romantic, back-talking snark who has a dark, troubled past. At least that's my theory. If you feel I'm incorrect I apologize, I'm not saying that this incarnation of Lobo is clichy-cliche at all (in fact it is probably the most unique comic out right now), but I find his mannerisms and design seems to appeal and also reinvent the character into the type that a reader with a more open mind about comics, and who understand the idea of Lobo.

And honestly he's not that entirely different from the old Lobo either, he still feels like Lobo, and I love that. I love this book

The only difference is that he's slim lol.

well yeah but I feel like this Lobo is a lot less cartooney, if that makes any sense.

Guys, this is the Cullen Bunn. Enough with the sophomoric jokes or you won't be here for a while (or permanently).
