What if our greatest heroes became our greatest threat? From the indomitable DC Comics and the makers of the definitive fighting game franchise Mortal Kombat comes Injustice: Gods Among Us, a bold fighting game featuring a large cast of favorite DC Comics icons. Set in a world where the lines between good and evil are blurred, players will experience heroes and villains engaging in epic battles on a massive scale. A deep, original story compliments the fighting action that pits many of the great heroes and villains from the DC universe against each other -- Batman, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman and many others lose their allegiances and fight for Injustice!
Release Date: April 16th!

I clearly have not been paying that close to this game. I can't wait to play it but why does Nightwing have to be red? I know in the new 52 he is red but I like the blue Nightwing more.

Loved when Batman said Dick was his son.

WHOAAAAAAAAA didnt see that one coming, But Bats got him back with that slap in the face that Dick was more of a son then...well...his actual son :D

@BlackIceJoe he is blue normally, in most of the promotional material anyway. I also agree, blue is much, much better.

Interesting, Damien was in the Bat-Cave sparring with Nightwing in his Robin attire in the weekly digital comic when Superman makes an appearance. Would like to know the year difference between that series and the game because he looks younger in the prequel comic series.

I'm sure after killing Dick Grayson and jumping over to Superman's side, Damien adopted the red costume to Grayson's blue suit.

makes sense for Nightwing to be on Superman's side, since Supes is the one who gave him the name "Nightwing" after a Kryptonian hero (Krypton's version of Batman...sorta)

This is a different universe than what we're used to. It looks like Dick sided with Batman but Damian sided with Superman.

...the [frick]?!?

No. No. NO!

Bad Netherealm! BAD!

You know, for a second there, I thought this was going to be good. I felt that, while it could've been executed better, it was understandable why Superman went off the deep end. Even Wonder Woman, I could somewhat buy.

...and then you have Damian kill Dick. Over father issues.

You had Damian Wayne, someone who started off a jerkish brat but evolved into a noble hero willing to die to save the world, kill Dick Grayson, who made Damian his Robin while he was acting as Batman in Bruce's place, over father issues; when in the comics, the issues were in a much less retarded context, and Damian eventually became an accepted member of the Batfamily.

...you know. I was considering actually getting this game, I was somewhat optimistic about it. They'd brought a lot of old VAs back, the gameplay looked cool, I'm actually downloading the demo as we speak.

It's moments like this that make me worry that Marvel Studios can only go downhill from here. The moments where every scrap of info, every spoiler up until this point, has indicated nothing but good...

And then the other shoe drops and you realize that nothing will make up for this moment of fail.

in the comic, Damian is still Robin (and a kid) when Supes starts to conquer everything. I wonder how much time passes between the comic and the start of the game?

Maybe we see both Grayson and Damian??? I dunno

i have the game for my phone and he resembles damien more than Dick, thats why for a sec when I first got it I was like " why does nightwing look so damn dumb" now this explains it
superherofan21
superherofan21 - 4/7/2013, 9:59 PM
HAHAH! Like Damian could EVER kill Dick.

before anyone complains, this is obviously and otherworld Damian Wayne/Dick Grayson story.

So regularly it'd be totally uncalled for to have Damian murder Grayson, but who knows what happens in the otherworld that convinces Damian to join Supes and kill Grayson. Calm yo tits.

There has to be more to it than that. Damien came to see Dick as a brother, there's no way he would just up and kill him.

mgeoff88 - 4/7/2013, 10:28 PM
That's crazy! Damian Wayne killed Dick Grayson??? I don't know... I don't believe Dick Grayson is dead.

DarthVenom - 4/7/2013, 10:33 PM
@repulse93 calm yourself -_- if you read the prequel comics you would know there was some tension between Dick and Damian, Damian try to take a cheap shot when Dick was talking to superman.
druzod2501
druzod2501 - 4/7/2013, 10:54 PM
@ mgeoff88 you think Batman wouldn't be thorough about shit like that?! if he says Dick is dead, then I believe him

schneider625 - 4/7/2013, 11:01 PM
Well, I won't be getting this game now...., but why does he look different from the rest of the photos and game play???
