In the aftermath of Batwoman’s brutal showdown with the Monks of the Stone, Jacob Kane fears his daughter may have crossed the point of no return

Lobo #3
The Eisner-nominated creative team that brought you a fantastic parable of adolescence in the Midwest, the story of an artist who embraces darkness a little too closely, and the tale of a gunslinger with too much grit to stay buried brings you a classic yarn spun in the star-kissed threads of the cosmic DC Universe.
Show business and Lobo had concussive creative differences, so he and Dawg are back to bounty hunting in Lobo #3

Denys Cowan Variant Cover:
Lobo #3
The trade’s been… professionalized since the universe’s premier entertainment corporation took over, and Lobo has to get relicensed, which means a psych eval with an alien empath.
Bad news for them, good news for Czarnian history buffs, who’ll get a new peek at the twilight of the civilization (a.k.a. Lobo’s childhood) and the first appearance of a heretofore unknown Green Lantern!
