Mortal Kombat X Digital Comics announced by DC Comics - will serve as prequel to game

[T33-Kahn]

Today at the New York Comic-Con a Mortal Kombat X announcement was made involving comics! That's right! Just the the Injustice: Gods Among Us comic, which was first released digitally in January of 2013 we can expect the same for Mortal Kombat X. By the looks of the characters shown, could the Red Dragon be a new character?

Here are some addition notes from CBR:
Finally, "Mortal Kombat X" will be Shawn Kittelsen and drawn by Dexter Soy under covers by Ivan Reis. The series serves as a prequel to the incoming game of the same name by NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The story takes place 25 years after the events of 2011'a "Mortal Kombat" relaunch game.

Nice, it looks great. I hope it doesn't get the Injustice's wonky art treatement though.

So we might see this guy in the game as well…
Wonder who he is and his relationships.. Is any of you familiar with this symbol on his chest?

 

[T33-Kahn]

Guys, that's Red Dragons thugs, not a new fighter... >.>
But maybe that means Mavado and Daegon will be in MKX!!!

Damn, not really the kind of announcement I wanted but still looks pretty tight.

 

[AK L0rdoftheFLY]

I really enjoyed Injustice comics. I'll pay to read MKx comics too

 

[DownfouralitY]

Pretty sure it's not a new character.

Looks VERY similar to the red dragon thug you fight in MK:SM

@MKF30 I'm so freaking happy right now...and I feel so vindicated too! I knew a comic series would be announced, I was just waiting for the rest of the world to catch up. Lol.
