How does he get such credit when some comics he's getting hurt by simple things then I'vw seen him go blow for blow with superman. How can we judge who he really is and what his powers are with them writing this vast power gap based on "writers delight"
Then he's got things like blood clone feats.
Crazy psuedoscience feats
smelling across the galaxy a la braniac 5 confirmation
crunching a city into a candyball
the list goes on and on. As I said he's basically bugs bunny running around in DC doing whatever the hell he wants.

I don't hate any character I just seek truth and understanding..Lobo has strong feats and weak feats just as superman..

Hey, Ennis could be ok when he steers clear of capes. 😉
It's almost impossible to not like Tommy Monaghan.
Ennis hates super heroes, basically. You can see it in Hitman/JLA, where everyone looks like either a dick, or incompetent.
Except for Superman.. Garth at least has enough sense to respect the S.
As for Lobo:
You have to understand, he was originally conceived as an over the top parody of "Grim and Gritty" types. Basically, he was meant to be a joke, by Keith Giffen in his "JLA/JLI humor league" days. Only, this time the joke was on him, as he ended up creating a near definitive icon of the very thing he was trying to poke fun at.
Only fun, because he didn't take himself too seriously like most "grim and gritty" types. Like Deadpool, another parody turned into lighthearted icon.
