In White Plains, New York, the headquarters of Lobo Technologies, Lobo and the Dominant Species kill a small group of humans. When a team of X-Men arrive to investigate the murder, Lobo and the Dominant Species confront the X-Men and force them to retreat. Lobo pursues Archangel and Husk, who learn of his plan to illegally sell Stark Enterprises products. When the rest of the X-Men arrive to help Archangel and Husk, Lobo causes an explosion to cover his escape.

During the "Dark Reign" storyline, Lobo is revealed to have lost his mutant powers during M-Day. Following the events of "X-Men: Messiah Complex", Maximus is confronted by Wolf Cub, who he previously attempted to manipulate into joining his cause.
