BLOODLINES, DC's Summer Annual crossover event, begins here. From interdimensional space come lifeforms as ferocious and predatory as they are hideous...shape-shifting parasites that inhabit a living spaceship and harbor a terrible secret that threatens the planet Earth. It's death from beyond the stars for an angry Main Man when Lobo is ordered by Chief Dox to investigate a disturbing rift in space. But Dox places special L.E.G.I.O.N. agent Layla in charge of the mission and Lobo finds that he's met his match in the butt-kickin' department...especially when Layla goes on to become the first New Blood in the DC Universe! Continues in Superman The Man of Steel Annual (1992) #2. Written by Alan Grant, with art and cover by Christian Alamy. 68 pages. New Format. Cover price $3.50.

So, okay, BLAZING CHAIN OF LOVE pushes the boundaries of humorous adventure (and - sigh - love!) as only a bastich like Lobo can as the main man's working once again for Ramona, the hairdresser/skip tracer. This time he's on the trail of a beautiful murderess who's hiding in the harem of Sultan Algor...a harem the size of New Jersey full of very lovely - and lonely - ladies. But lonely enough to settle for the likes of Lobo? Will Lobo survive the bounty of feminine wiles? Will he still find his bounty? Who knows? YOU will, if you buy this comic. Written by Keith Giffen and Alan Grant, with art by Denys Cowan. Painted cover by Dan Brereton. New Format. Suggested for Mature Readers. Cover price $1.50.
