Who is Space Dolphin?

Space Dolphins are a species of space faring mammals that resemble the Earth based family Delphinidae, better known as Dolphins. The Space Dolphins have became particularly associated with intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo. The Space Dolphins are perhaps the only thing that Lobo will not harm in any form, and, in fact, will actively seek to better their being. The Green Lantern planet Mogo was once besieged by a shower of corrosive yellow matter. Since his ring was powerless to stop the matter, he created a holographic agent to barter away the matter to the star traveling salesman Manga Khan , who traded two canisters of the matter, in an inert state, for two Space Dolphins caught by Manga's Cluster. Unknown to Manga Khan, however, the intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo, a self proclaimed protector of the dolphins, was after the person who had captured the Space Dolphins. Luckily for Manga Khan, the New God Mister Miracle was near to suggest they track down the person who had bought the dolphins. When Lobo and Miracle approached the planet where the person who had bought them resided, the planet itself began attacking them.
