HISTORY
During what is commonly referred to as the "Sins of Youth" event, the intergalactic bounty-hunter Lobo was magically transformed into a teenager by Klarion the Witch-Boy. For some reason, he did not change back when all the heroes and villains of Earth did. After an initial fit of rage, Lobo contented himself with his new age, and joined the Young Justice team as a somewhat wild card.
On a mission to Apokolips, Lobo's body was destroyed, but his regenerating Czarnian blood spawned dozens of clones, who killed one another until only one, adult Lobo remained. Or so he thought. One shy teenage clone survived. Following Young Justice back to Earth, the Lobo clone - now called "Slobo" - ultimately joined the team and acted more heroically than his adult self ever did. Heaven knows, though, what would have happened had the real Lobo gotten to know about his "weakling" younger self.
Over time Slobo's body started to degenerate. At first he lost lost his eyesight, but eventually he was at the brink of death. Before that happened he was turned into a fully concious statue and transported into the 853rd Century.
