Biography[]
In 2016, Lobo arrives on Earth to carry out a mission.
Lobo attacks the headquarters of the United Nations, fighting his way through to the office of Secretary General Tseng. Although the Young Justice Beta team is alerted, they come too late. Lobo enters the office where one of Tseng's last remaining security guards fires his machine gun at him. Lobo is completely unaffected by the bullets and strikes down the man with an energy beam from his hand. Once Lobo realizes that Tseng cannot understand him, he activates a translator module. He then tells Tseng to surrender or die, but before he can execute Tseng, he is suddenly attacked by Wonder Girl. While Wonder Girl fights Lono, Batgirl brings Tseng to safety. Although and Batgirl escape through a secret elevator, Lobo easily throws Wonder Girl out of his way and pursues Barbara and Tseng. He confronts them in the central chamber but is once more attacked by Wonder Girl. It comes to a brief battle between the two women and Lobo and Lobo manages to get rid of them both long enough to reach Tseng. He grabs Tseng and, to the horror of the heroes, rips him apart. To their surprise, Tseng is revealed to be a robot which contains a small alien. Lobo grabs the alien and, stating that his contract is complete, leaves by having his bike blast through the walls of the building.
Claiming that Barbara's and Wonder Girl's world is now their world once again, Lobo then leaves the planet with his captive in order to cash in their reward. In the Watchtower, John Stewart later reveals the identity of Lobo to the rest of the team.
In 2018, Lobo was on Rimbor and was tasked with killing New God Bug Forager. He was initially uninterested but changed his mind not too soon. He returned to Earth, where he confronted Nightwing's team (consisting of Geo-Force, Superboy, Black Lightning, Tigress, and Halo) by literally crashing down. Lobo announced his intentions to carry out the mission of killing Forager and gave the heroes a chance to leave but was refused and he prepared for battle. The bounty hunter easily withstands and refused to divulge the identity of his employer to Nightwing. After getting annoyed with their interference and his finger severed, he moved to kill Halo and Helga Jace but Forager seemingly came to their rescue and Lobo believed he got him. He proceeded to pummel him, knocking away the team as they try to interfere, but he crushed the Bug's shell. With his contract complete, Lobo makes his escape on his hoverbike and proclaim the heroes shouldn't be sad because they lasted longer than most. After his departure, it is revealed Forager shed his exoskeleton to fake his death.
Lobo later regrew his finger and returned to Earth, going back to the spot he fought the heroes to kill a miniature clone of himself that was formed from his severed finger by stomping on it. After dealing with the situation, he threw a lit cigarette on the puddle of blood that soon set ablaze.
