21 is kind of hard to find Jedi. First hellboy. But the rest of them you can find cheap most of the time.
There an OK read. Jhon Byrns.

I liked Next Men back in the day, but I'm a Byrne fan. He's declined recently, but I'd say Next Men is probably the end of what I consider his "good" stuff.

I have to agree.....after this he was NEVER the same. I used to sought after his work....His Fantastic Four run was AMAZING.

Cobra Com, let me look around, I may have an extra #21. It's probably F/VF, but if it fills in a gap in your reading, it's all good, right?

Ya know, Lobo was a really good character until they turned him into a parody of himself.

Lobo and the Punisher are what started me down the comic collecting road.

That picture makes it look like the girl just dropped a galactic deuce... IMO, anyways.

Some people spend their whole lives believing in fairy tales, usually because they don't want to give up the fabulous prizes.

What nobody's getting back issues around here?

Anyway, I've read the first 5 issues of Next Men and it is AWESOME.

If anybody can spare the $10 or whatever it is for the first 20 issues. DO IT! DO IT!

Lobo's costume in his first appearence looks like the one that that two headed He-man badguy wore on the vintage toy...

If I remember correctly, he had a punching action that when you used it, he'd hit his other head in the face.... LMAO.

Now I want the 1st App of Lobo. And of Deadpool, and all of these other characters we've suddenly started talking about.

It is quite lame - whoever did his "makeover" hopefully got a raise.

That's the bug biting - I was reading about Deadpool and momentarily wished I hadn't sold off his first two LS's..... they were such fun reads!

I think a lot of that credit has to go to Simon Bisley. Visually it was very much his character :clap:
