If you're not familiar with Lobo, he is an alien who was first introduced in 1983 as a villainous bounty hunter and mercenary in the comics. But he became very popular in the 90s after a sort of a soft reboot as a an anti-hero biker. To read more about Lobo, click here to go to DC's character page.

"Insiders suggest that Fuchs will start from scratch with his own take on Lobo — an alien who works as an interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter. The character became a popular figure among fans of DC comic books following his revival in the early ’90s as a biker anti-hero.
"Brad Peyton ('San Andreas') signed on to direct 'Lobo' and rewrite Don Payne’s script in April 2012, with Joel Silver and Akiva Goldsman producing."
