MM should have been in the main roster. That's an easy vote...

Smells of trickery, as if he just wants us to vote only to reveal MM is in already lol.

Could be. I mean, seriously, this is actually worse than his Power Girl/Supergirl/Batgirl poll because at least that one had potential to mix things up(though peoples' hormones obviously got the better of them, curse Power Girl's boob window). Poor Prof Zoom is being led to slaughter.

He's said in a past interview, characters that have similar powers, naming Professor Zoom, wouldn't be chosen, but may be an alternate costume of an existing character.

He says it right here: (6:59 mark)

So the poll really makes no sense if it's serious. That's why I am thinking it may just be to mess with people, get people in a big uproar about MM not being in the main game etc. only for him to be revealed on Monday or something. Just for laughs. But, maybe he just wasn't needed for the story so they left him out...Who knows...
 
MM should deserve to be in the main roster! also it's not really a contest, I don't know a lot about professor zoom but i here he is just like The Flash so I'd prefer a new character than just a slightly different Flash.

MARTIAN MANHUNTER SHOULD BE IN THE GAME ON APRIL 16th!!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Boon is specifically targeting me to troll. It's what it feels like... :( #BibleThump

Martian Manhunter, not even a contest. Still surprised he's not on the on disc roster. Really starting to wonder about some of these roster choices the closer we get to release. Really hoping for A LOT of DLC characters.

I don't think Drakken discovered a way to bend time to his will and retroactively kill Kim Possible's unborn twins.
To be fair, that was Wally's Zoom, wasn't it? Didn't have professor in his name.

Not that the good professor isn't responsible for similar atrocities. Such as the New 52.

Actually, he did along with Monkey Fist and Duff Killigan in the movie "A Sitch in Time". He just fucked it up ;)

Unless Boon has changed his mind, Professor Zoom won't be in the game, he specifically said in one of his interviews that Zoom was too similar to The Flash and that he wanted a more diverse roster, he's just messing with us, I wouldn't be surprised if MMH is the next character to be reveal

My bad for failing and not knowing anything about him besides his powe- Oh wait! Actually it turns out a majority of people don't know who the fuck Dr. Zoom is.

Wait. Hold up, maybe I even posted that question to emphasize how unknown he is compared to MMH.
Welp guys, now you know that you should try to understand a post so that you don't make yourself look like an ass, like our good friend BooBoo here.

"Sorry guys but I'm calling this a major troll from Boon.
First off in DC universe acronym theory MMH is Martian Manhunter not MM. I said this a while ago and I will say it again, the folder on his desktop that was named MM is for Mirror Master who is one of the Flash's main nemesis.
In the most recent issue of the prequel comics Mirror Master makes an appearance. I don't know why they would introduce Mirror Master (again the true MM) in the comics if he wasn't going to be playable in the game. They revealed Aquaman when he appeared in the prequel comics so I think we will see some new characters when they appear in new issues.
On Boons twitter the most requested character is MMH. I think Boon is trying to fool us into believing he isn't playable at release. He will probably not be revealed until release ala Smoke on MK9. Such an integral figure in the DCU it would be idiocy not to put him in the game because he would make a great character, have great mechanics and would be visually different (green skin, purple costume, etc).
ZOOM? LOL. He doesn't have a prayer.. I've never heard anyone ever request him. Proof of the troll right there. Grodd, Captain Cold and Mirror Master are all more known and likely than Professor Zoom.
Unofficial DLC vote sounds like malarky. To me the whole thing is hinting at a Flash villain (MM) and trying to make us believe MMH is a post-release character. Am I the only one who sees this as BS?"
