The 're-imagining' of Lobo [ala Twighlight!]

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

The Main Man LOBO is sadly set to be transformed into a sub Twighlight looking character despite the desperate attempt to say otherwise. Ah, well next generation and all that.

That's NOT the main man. *seethes in pointless fan boy rage* They say that this version is a concept and their version is  "bigger and nastier".

I hope so I don't see the baddest bastich ever being very convincing as um, that, fine enough as an illustration though it is.

I suppose I should reserve judgment but that would be reasonable and mature all the things the internet and myself aren't, and why bother when I can shriek about this now?

There must be a factory churning out nefarious PR-bots.

Well, they have to do something with Lobo seeing as he's an anachronism in a DCU where Superman shoots people's heads off with his heat vision.  He used to be a reaction to the DCU, or at the very least an atypical example of its residents, but these days his schtick is just par for the course and I can understand why they need to go somewhere else with him.

Although isn't this his second reboot since the Nu52 started?

Oh fuck that!

Based on that image they're gearing up for a movie then.

 That's definitely not Main Man... Now this is a bit more like it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9ooZYjF0mI

I thought spandex Constantine was bad enough.

[dracula1]

Bloody hell they didn't put John C in Lycra did they?! That's as bad as casting Keanu Reeves as the demon hunter.

As bad as Reeves version was it's head and shoulders above the crap in the New 52.

Crap JC after stealing Shazams power.

Holy Crud! That is bad .... 

[Zarjazzer]

  Terrible , haven't really looked at the new 52 but I'm really glad I never got that atrocity. Perhaps they thought it was an amusing joke? Or ironic? Big fail.

IMHO it's much worse than the LOBO re-do.

Yeah. That genuinely is just shitting all over any concept of the character. DC really is devoid of any clue these days.

That take on Constantine looks . . .hideous. There's really no other word for it.

At least DC are re-releasing the Garth Ennis run on Hellblazer as graphic novels, so anyone who wants a more accurate take on the character have somewhere to go.
