_________________________________________________________________

Character Bio - Lobo is a Czarnian with exceptional strength and fortitude. He enjoys nothing better than mindless violence and intoxication. Killing is an end in itself; his name is Thusly for "he who devours your entrails and thoroughly enjoys it." He is also arrogant and self-centered, focusing almost solely on his own pleasures, although he proudly lives up to his word – but exactly his word: no more or no less than what he promised. Lobo is the last of his kind, having committed complete genocide by killing all the other Czarnians for fun. Lobo unleashed a violent plague (a hybrid of flying scorpions) upon his homeworld, killing most of its citizens. Once, Lobo nonchalantly told Superman the fate of his race: "I'm the last Czarnian. I fragged the rest of the planet for my high school science project. Gave myself an A."

BIG BASTICH BOUNTY HUNTER
At the start of the game, choose an opponent's Unique or Event Hero to be Lobo's Bounty. Lobo rolls two additional attack dice when attacking his Bounty.

HOOK, LINE, AND MASSACRE
Before attacking, if Lobo is not engaged, you may choose one small or medium figure within 3 clear sight spaces whose base is not higher or lower than 10 levels from Lobo's base. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 9 or higher, place the chosen figure on any empty space adjacent to Lobo. The chosen figure will not take any leaving engagement attacks.

BLAH, BLAH, HEALING FACTOR, BLAH
Before taking a turn with Lobo, you may remove 1 Wound Marker from this card.

SUPER STRENGTH

[A3n]

Ok, his sub-title isn't going to fit.

Does he really have healing? It's not something that I remember of him.

Other then that. Nice solid, simple design.

? You didn't want to do anything for the dog? Nor include his space bike?

[Good Pig]

Cool.

He looks like a beast with Healing Factor. The main thing that will keep him in check is being a ground pounder.

The Secret Identity is pretty funny. I'm curious to see how that will look on the card.

Would you be able to separate the dog from his base? Might be cool to do a follow up design with him.

Hook and Chain looks like a modified Chain Grab. You made it a requirement to be unengaged, which seems reasonable and gave it a little more range to it.

Looks great.

[tcglkn]

Looks good. Are you not planing to do anything to represent Dawg though?

[Griffin]

Subname - make it fit, that is his name

Healing - he is a parody of Wolverine, so healing is a big part of him

Space Bike - there is a figure with the space bike. I am not interested in that at all, that is why I chose this figure and not the other

Dawg - he is very easily removed from the base and is not attached to Lobo directly. I plan on giving him his own design but I don't like the idea of having multiple figures on a single base (the one civilian was the exception, and it was out of necessity)

@Art Team: Not it!

[Griffin]

It does seem like you could just use a couple lines and possible make the text smaller. Really, the name is a funny little nerd trivia that I think people will really like learning/remembering.

[IAmBatman]

Nothing to add. Looks good.

[Hahma]

Looks good. Though I don't really know the character.

[Griffin]

Maybe his attack should come down to 6. He isn't as strong as Superman I, and with his Bounty added, he definitely shouldn't be stronger.

[IAmBatman]

Yeah, I think that's fine. That way he can match Superman when his Bounty is Superman.
