Lobster Random is a character in the comic book ''2000 AD''. He was created by Simon Spurrier and artist Carl Critchlow. ==Overview== Ugly of temper and with a pair of claws surgically grafted onto his sides, Lobster Random was a genetically modified soldier, adapted to never need sleep or to feel pain. After being discharged from the military he found his talents lay in the art of torture, and hired out his services for any client who required information and wasn't squeamish about the methods employed to get it. "Lob" is a cranky old bald man with two huge lobster claws emerging from his back, and is part of a long tradition in 2000 AD giving their protagonists a distinctive visual appearance at odds with the comic book stereotype of square-jawed, good-looking action heroes. Lob's character is portrayed as extremely grumpy, cynical and sometimes psychotic (all resulting from both decades without sleep and his experiences during the time after his discharge from the military). Lob has also had his left arm amputated on three separate occasions (twice was this self-inflicted). The art, by Carl Critchlow, represented a departure from his older painted style and instead used a computer-based line drawing technique that he developed in his self-published Thrud the Barbarian. Lobster Random debuted in an eight-part adventure in 2003, entitled "No Gain, No Pain." (progs 1342-1349). A hardback collection of this 45-page story was released by Rebellion for the European market in April 2005. The second series, "Tooth and Claw," ran for nine episodes (with a double-length finale), from progs 1411-1419 (October to December 2004). The third series was called "The Agony and the Ecstasy". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lobster Random」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
