On some level, the man was simply ego with power, a handful of what he thought was conventional wisdom and the clout to make others glumly obey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6956070.post-1471138712376808862008-08-13T00:54:00.000-04:002008-08-13T00:54:00.000-04:00Steven Gordon has the presentation art that he did...Steven Gordon has the presentation art that he did for the series on his website.<BR/><BR/>http://www.stevenegordon.com/presentation_art/lobo.html<BR/><BR/>It's too bad it never happened. It looks fun. Although, I'm not sure if it's odd or appropriate that a character written for adults, whose appeal was bloody violence and raunchy humor, was almost turned into a kids' cartoon.<BR/><BR/>It's definitely odd that Lobo of all DC characters would've been the first WB/DC cartoon without Batman or Superman ties. WB's imagination seems limited to Batman, Superman, and Batman and/or Superman team-up cartoons. That's lame considering the hundreds of characters they have in their inventory.<BR/><BR/>And I think you're spot on about Batman Beyond. After the first season, everything (even the animation, it seemed like) was much brighter and more kid-friendly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
