OMain Man has appeared even in cartoons. Precisely in the animated series of Superman and Justice League. In the case of Big Blue cartoon, in which practically appears a “special guest” per cartoon, the episode with Main Man made his first appearance in 1996 and they even commented about a possible realization of the cartoon exclusive of Lobo, but hasn’t been concreted (further details, on the bottom).

Anyway, some animated small films have already been made in Flash, with a more simplified strokes than this one beside, and that can be checked in the downloads section. In the League cartoon, Lobo also appeared in a very funny double episode where tried to replace Superman, that everybody thought he was dead.

Lobo appears in the following Superman’s episodes:

Episode 8 - “The Main Man - part one” see drescription
Episode 11 - “The Main Man - part two” see description
Episode 36 - “Warrior Queen” (PS: Here he isn’t a main character after Superman, he is a special participation in the last seconds of the cartoon)
