They did a good job with Batman and Superman here. They even somehow get batman's cape to cover him at times.

Normalize grab immunity.
I forgot how weird some of this game looked. It's funny, maybe ironic, MKx showed NRS were getting the hang of animating stuff. Then it looks like they decided to keep stuff from injustice 1. I really hope they change some stuff. A few stances and moves throughout the roster could do with an upgrade.

Batman looks like his ready to give the hardest punch slap ever. It looks like a MK arcade throwback stance. I think he should have a stance with his arms ready. But his idle animation makes cover in the cape.

Resolution through knowledge and resolve.
From Wiki on Batman - "He has mastered 127 styles of martial arts including Muay Thai, Escrima, Krav Maga, Capoeira, Savate, Yawyan, Taekwondo, Judo, Jujitsu, Ninjitsu, Kendo, Fencing, Kenjitsu, Kali, Bojutsu, Francombat, Boxing, Kickboxing, Hapkido, Wing Chun, Parkour, Shorin Ryu, Silat, Chin Na, Hokuto Shinken, Kyudo, Aikido, Varma Adi, Jeet Kune Do, Shaolin, Ba Gua, Hung Gar, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, Kenpo, and Karate."
Someone who knew this many styles would have a very fluid stance, I would be inclined to think...

No, Batman's Stance looks even worse in Injustice 2 in my opinion.

Looks like We are stuck with this fight pose again... Injustice 2 and on the bottom injustice 1.
I don't want to derail too much from Batman but dear god, Aquaman looks horrible in Injustice 2 and his Trident looks like a toy. I hope they upgrade some of the animations and designs

Give him all the tools to be a top tier character that can deal with all the other OP characters that will surely become tournament whore favorites. Give all his ex specials armor that functions like armor should and can only be stopped/interrupted by a supermove. Give him fast normals, good poking reach, fast walkspeed, dark meter bar absorption cape parry against all projectiles, windows 10 mechanical bats, explosive air sparks, the same starter combos from Injustice one and kryptonite gloves, boots, and batarangs. BATMAN all the way! Kapow!

Not Good Enough
I like his stances and animations. I don't know exactly why his stance speaks to me. It might be because I enjoyed how he was in the mobile game and plus when zoomed out, like Injustice 1 Console was, I didn't really see it as a bad thing. You were so concerned with your opponent's actions, you don't really have the time to analyze the stance you do have.

I respect your opinion but for me batman should be more in a traditional marital arts stance or not at all just cape in front of him so you cant tell what he is going to do. But with his left hand up in a very superhero way looks silly to me.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the general stance, but I think they could touch it upa bit. Looks stiff.

Looks like he's holding a purse. Batman doesn't hold anyone's fucking purse.

It's so counter to his characterization of a mysterious badass and arguably the greatest martial artist in the DCU. It's almost bad enough to be it's own meme.

As far as animations go, he's fine. Pretty direct style and doesn't waste a lot of movement, but he flows well. Pretty much like his comic fighting style in motion.

His Super is lame, about as underwhelming as Grodd's. Should've been shades of Liu Kang, just start comboing the fucker's ass with his amazing martial arts moves--tornado kick to the head, shin kick, rib punches, headbutt to the nose, and then finish by slapping an explosive charge to the chest and Spartan kicking them away before it explodes, like in the INJ2 Reveal Trailer.
