The match-up between a major feminist icon and a toxic male anti-hero feels more or less perfect, but Lobos style doesnt work well with the tradition of Wonder Woman. Better to give Lobo someone to challenge who has a similar comic genre, but is actually a totally different kind of personality. A battle between Lobo and Ambush Bug or Captain Carrot would have been a much more clever pairing with a character like Lobo. The specific tones of each character would have clashed a little bit less if they were both cartoony characters from the DC Universe. Read Full Review

This issue is overall pretty silly, although it somehow manages to get both characters pretty note-perfect despite that. It's another great addition to the over-the-top, chaotic nature of the whole DC KO event. Read Full Review

DC K.O.: Wonder Woman vs Lobo Issue 1 pits two complete opposites against each other. It's a frantic, funny, full-on fight issue that captures the energy of this event. Read Full Review

DC K.O.: Wonder Woman vs. Lobo #1 provides the best battle round so far, as it contains both action, humor, and an outcome that really could have gone to either contestant and still moved the overall story forward in a logical way. Read Full Review

While those who aren't reading DC K.O. may be a little lost, there's still plenty here for those curious to latch onto, especially if they just want to see Wonder Woman and Lobo fight. Read Full Review

DC K.O.: Wonder Woman vs. Lobo #1 represents a profound misalignment between its established stakes and its comedic execution. The tournament exists to forge a champion who can save reality from destruction, yet this installment treats the match as an extended punchline, abandoning character development and genuine conflict for crude humor and slapstick violence. Wonder Woman deserves better than a fight where her opponent spends thirty pages making sexual advances, and readers deserve better than paying for a tournament match that resolves through divine plot intervention. The multiple artists, relentless vulgarity, and tonal whiplash between apocalyptic stakes and cartoon comedy combine to create an issue that actively works against the event's larger narrative.

Round 1 - Goes as expected. Both characters are written well and the outcome makes sense.

Round 2 - It's Lobo vs Wonder Woman, so Diana cheats by bringing in various Wonder Girls who are NOT part of the 64. Lame outcome.

Round 3 - Goes as expected but then the fight is decided by another entity that is NOT part of the 64. Lamer outcome.

Cover - DC couldn't find someone other than this crude scribble?

I love the KO books but this is by far the worst of the bunch.
