9 Comic Book Characters That Are Funnier Than Deadpool

Lobo

If Deadpool is Marvel’s resident break-the-fourth-waller, then Lobo is DC’s main man (see what I did there?). Not only is the character’s entire being based on a pastiche of comic book tough guys, but his self-awareness often leads to hilarious monologues and situations.

For those of us who prefer our humor as dark as Rick and Morty, there’s no one who gets us snorting and chortling like Lobo does. Yeah, he might be a super douche in the same league as Kanye West, but that’s part of his charm. You just can’t take the Czarnian’s threats seriously, even though you know that he’ll probably blow your head off.

Years ago, there were rumors that Dwayne Johnson was in negotiations to portray Lobo, and it seems like a real missed opportunity in hindsight. When the most electrifying man in sports entertainment wants to play the most fraggin’ funnyman in comic books, you let him do it, sit back, and count the influx of dollars afterwards.
