Lobo is a fictional Western comic book hero who is the medium's first African-American character to headline his own series.

Arneson and artist Tony Tallarico,[3] it chronicled the Old West adventures of a wealthy, unnamed African-American gunslinger called "Lobo" by the first issue's antagonists.

On the foreheads of vanquished criminals, Lobo would leave the calling card of a gold coin imprinted with the images of a wolf and the letter "L".

So they sniffed around, scouted around and discovered [that many sellers] were opposed to Lobo, who was the first black Western hero.

I added other elements to the original Black Lobo character concept, e.g.: Robin Hood, the Lone Ranger, etc., as well as the familiar adventurous spirit of the American cowboy of popular Western novels and cowboy movies of that time.... Tony illustrated a mock-up cover ... which was presented to Helen Meyer along with the proposal I wrote....

I have no idea on what information or source ... Tony based his explanation for the discontinuation of Lobo.

[6] In 2018, a Lobo novella was published in a collection entitled, Fantastic 4N1, written by author, David Noe.

He was an honoree at the reception dinner at the African American Museum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
