Bloodlines: Best Event Ever! - Lobo Annual #1 (1993) - a podcast by Mark Sweeney

This time out, I'm the Gun is pleased to participate with some other brave bloggers& podcasters in a celebration -erm- ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of DC Comics' landmark(?) 1993 x-over event running through that year's Annuals - Bloodlines!

Not looked back upon with much fondness, among Bloodlines most heinous crimes against comics seems to be the introduction of a rafter of new turkeys cut from the same cloth as many other 'extreme' 90s characters from companies such as Marvel& Image.  But was this the worst of Bloodlines' legacy?  I wanted to re-visit a couple of chapters in this saga to see if they held up - held up to the level of suckiness I remember - would I be pleasantly surprised?

In this episode I'll be taking a look at the Annual that started it all -Lobo Annual#1!
