Robin, Cyborg, and Wonder Woman are still pro-regime, Green Lantern and Flash are officially on Batman's side, Black Adam and Aquaman both seem to be going "gently caress y'all" and sticking to their own kingdoms

An intro dialogue suggests that Adam attempted to lead the regime in Superman's place during his imprisonment. Aquaman is explicitly through with this poo poo however.

I kinda want to main Flash even though it's not traditionally my type of character, just because that Reverse Flash skin is so rad

I had the exact same sentiment early on - Thawne's one of my favorite DC villains. Darkseid too boss though.

Evil speedsters in general are interesting characters I think. Because their powers make them hard to even perceive, let alone fight, they kind of have that boogeyman quality to them. Leaving Megalopolis had a great example.

Everything changes, Pit.

I finally caved and preordered the Ultimate Edition. Darkseid just looks too fun to miss out on at launch, and I want those skins and shaders for dress up purposes

Do we know if there's just one gear loadout per character, or can you save a few and pick the one you want at character select? It would be nice to have the Premiere Skins available without losing the original characters and needing to screw around with gear all the time when I want to swap.

I can't recall exactly how many offhand, but you absolutely can save multiple costume loadouts.

People think Boon is implicitly confirming Ares as DLC on this interview.

yeah I saw that too and I don't think it really comes across like that at all. I'd honestly put the probability non-returning characters from Injustice 1 at 0%, except maybe Sinestro. Even then, you've already got Atrocitus with his cat (functions kind of like Sinestro's

old characters being DLC would just waste slots that rightly belong to Constantine, Booster Gold, and The Weeper

I want to believe after the wonder twins joke that they'd realize that it would be awesome but that's too much to hope for.

Ares is believable DLC as a tie-in for the Wonder Woman movie. If it wasn't for that I'd say he had zero chance, but that would make him similar to Zod in IJ1's DLC lineup.

Edit: Oh, lame it's a gear thing. He can get Shazam's trait through gear. Another cool thing that's never going to get played with 😣

? I assumed the gear that changed your moves or whatever would be playable in 'real' matches, like variations in MKX.

That was "Legacy", the two-part series finale and it indeed ruled

if I remember correctly Supergirl shows up and seeing Supergirl + his symbol fighting against causes him to snap and he nearly murders her, but between that and lois showing up to talk him down, he starts to break free of the brainwashing juuuuuust in time to be hit by a kryptonite missile which takes him out for a while

I think he breaks out and flies to apokolips to put hands on Darkseid and beats him into submission and frees all of D's slaves, but they pick him up and carry him off to heal him anyway because:

If we get any evil superman in a rad armor we're much more likely to get this one, from the Elseworlds comic where Superman's rocket landed on Apokolips.

Rudy would have been better in MKX so he could have a fatality where he chokes on someone with his huge maw then spits them out, but all the viscera and guts turn into multiballs.
