MKX Comic Plot Discussion & Speculation Thread

People like him cuz he isn't in generic outfits as if he came straight from Gears of War or street clothes from Grand theft Auto. Besides...none of that matters storywise. Kotal Kahn (the apparent all powerful sun god) gets kicked off a building by Rain. Cage and Kenshi knock away scorpion and subzero like it's just another day. Sonya beats up frost like it's nothing. and Sindel by far has officially the highest body count. Jason Voorhees can soak that in.
You must be fun at parties

Likes nerds with big ...
A ninja mask on a cowboy does not make it less generic than the rest. Especially since it really is just the MK version of that scarf or whatever bandits were depicted as wearing to cover up their face.

Anyone else think it's interesting that Scorpion returns to Quan Chi's service at some point?
Well he fights Raiden and blames him for the death of his clan so working for Quan Chi again is a valid possibility. Takeda might stay with Raiden since he saved his life.

The print issue only being once a month from now on is gunna suck, but atleast we'll have MKX to hold us over lool...that sounded backwards

Chapter 12 - Rumble In The Jungle chapter summary updated.

Aaaaaaaannnnnndddddddd here's MOAR TW33TZ

Will we see how Kuai Liang turns back from cyborg to human?


There's a noticeable difference between comic Mileenas mouth and in-game Mileenas mouth. Why is that?


What's in the future for Sonya in the comics? Will we see her be more badass?


Will Forrest Fox reappear in the comics or does he join Hsu Hao, Mavado and Shang Tsung in the dead man's club?


With the announcement of the DLC characters...will we see the female of the Kombat Pack, Tanya, make an appearance?


I personally think this might be a hint as to who our big bad is, or at least one of the baddies we'll encounter in story mode... Chapter 12 revealed who's behind the blood?


Who is more of a father figure in Takedas life? Kenshi, his actual dad, or Scorpion, his mentor as Shirai Ryu? And what will happen to Shinnok? Will it be explored in the comics? An interesting theory at the very bottom also...

feed me updates
About what? I updated the OP #BibleThump

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttttt there is a few more Twitter tweets so here you go:

Will we see Bi Han/ Noob appear in the comics? We've seen Shawn tweet out about one of Noob or Smoke being in the comics, so could it be him? If so, when?


The theme for the first volume of the comics, Blood Ties, what does it mean? Does it have any relevance to the Kamidogu?

This actually really opens my eyes to what's been covered in the comics, a real mind-blower actually :D

With a screenshot of Baraka, or at the very least a Tarkatan, appearing in the Xbox achievements list we know he could be featured in the game somehow. But will Baraka make an appearance in the comics?

So I dont know about you guys but I started to get a hunch that the Diesel Red Head dude in the comics might end up being TREMOR (somehow)...

But Kittelsen konfirmed my hunch was false.... So , Ill post his response to me here just in case any of you were thinking what I was thinking.

Scorpion and Takeda's relationship develops in a surprising way in that Scorpion goes back to being Quan Chi's little bitch and now Takeda must beat his ass.

I'm not sure if that intro. Then again maybe it is. What they said about intros makes it seem like it can go either way.

They said there are non-canon chats in the fight intros. I am also pretty sure that we're looking at a Sub Zero situation where unmasked Scorpion is the "canon" scorpion of the game. I think he'll probably be masked during the Netherrealm War and all later scenes be Hanzo.

MKX Comic #13 is available on March 29? (this sunday)
I'd assume so, don't see why not. But I can't find it...
