[SPOILERS] Injustice 2: Rumors, Leaks, and our potential roster

[Tundra81]

I'm not sure I really get this whole "Batman character" thing at all. I mean, Wolverine had his first appearance in The Hulk. Do we call Wolverine a Hulk character? Or does the fact that he's had his own mini-series, comic titles, and movies mean that he's a solid character in his own right? The Punisher had his first few appearances in Spider-Man and later in Daredevil. Is Punisher really just a Spider-Man character? When Punisher has his own mini-series, his own comic titles, and his own movies, isn't Punisher just The Punisher and not solely a Spider-Man character or Daredevil character? Haven't they stepped out of the shadows of their origin issue?

Punisher and Wolverine first appeared in the 70s, Catwoman first appeared in 1940! She's had her own mini-series, own comic titles, own movie. Harley Quinn has also had her own mini-series, comic title, and Suicide Squad was pretty much a Harley movie. Now they are taking the Gotham City Sirens comic featuring Harley, Catwoman, and Poison Ivy, and looking at making that into a movie. These are interesting characters in their own right. They've sustained titles and storylines apart from Batman. Obviously, they might have originated in Batman (one of the three longest continually running comic books in history, by far), but they aren't dependent on Batman and have their own fans. Maybe Batman is the hero they are most closely associated with, but I don't know that justifies dismissively referring to them as "Batman characters" as if that's all they are.

Take Constantine. Ok, he first appeared in Swamp Thing. His first few appearances were in Swamp Thing. He's also had his own movie, TV show, guest TV show appearance, and several comic titles. Constantine has plenty of fans in his own right, probably even some that might be unaware of his Swamp Thing origins. Maybe the other DC character he is most associated with is Swamp Thing, but isn't Constantine more than just a Swamp Thing character? Hasn't his success shown he has merit in his own right, whatever his first appearance might have been?

Hey, if some people would rather have some characters than other characters on the roster, I feel you brothers and sisters. I'm sure everyone has characters they'd like to swap out for others. Yet, if someone wants to disdainfully, sneeringly, contemptuously write off characters like Catwoman, Harley, and Poison Ivy as mere "Batman characters" without their own value, I'm not sure I buy into that. Walking around referring to Wolverine as nothing but a Hulk character, Constantine as nothing but a Swamp Thing character, or Punisher as nothing but a Spider-Man character doesn't make much sense either.

If I could like this twice I would. Nicely put. I feel like I've been complaining about complainers a lot lately and thought I'd dial it back a bit. But the whole "too many Batman characters" freakin' bugs the crap out of me.

 

[Swindle]

Where have you been? Lol There has been plenty of complaining about the abundance of Batverse characters! I mean where were you when they announced Bane, Catwoman and especially Scarecrow? All three characters got an immense amount of hate! Heck Poison Ivy did too when fans started to speculate that they included her over Swamp Thing. People lost there minds when they thought Mr Freeze was going to be his own character instead of just a skin!

So yes there's been plenty of hate, I should know since I've been pretty vocal myself haha

Not nearly as much hate as there was for the first Injustice's roster. You have a very short memory.

The multiverse mode for Injustice 2 -


about Multiverse

"In addition to the campaign, online, and fighting game standard arcade modes, Injustice 2 also introduces the new Multiverse mode. Similar to Mortal Kombat X's Towers, the Multiverse allows players to travel to an ever-changing series of parallel worlds in the DC Universe and battle alternate versions of the heroes and villains with various handicaps, stipulations, and goals. Completing the gauntlet, you'll gain access to various tiers of Motherboxes, which yield new gear, items, and shaders for your characters."

Ugh, just what we need: more Test Your Luck fuckery but with epic gear potentially locked behind it. Hopefully there's something more to it.

 

[LASTOfTheDodos]

we need the Spectre

 

[legion666]

we need the Spectre

I am still not losing hope that the Joker is the new host for Spectre like it was hinted at throughout year 3 of IGAU comic book))) and that is why he is the last character to be revealed.

really? i had no idea. Is it Joker or his previous persona serving as the host?

this could make things much more interesting. also, Scooby-Spectre is needed as a premiere skin if this is true

 

[Evil Canadian]

My hope for the Joker is he takes an extended rest. Just show up in injustice 3 buddy we don't need you here much better characters than you are holding down the fort now.

It was heavily hinted there, Jim Corrigan for example was found Jokerized in the Arkham, but in the end this pro-Regime Spectre turned out to be Mr Mxysptlk. But it would be cool to build on that and still make Joker Spectre's new host.

 

[StormGoddess]

is this Brainiac in the android game ??

 

[Kokoko]

is this Brainiac in the android game ??

No, just one of his soldiers

 

[Marinjuana]

Looks like one of his jobber bots

 

[legion666]

He used to look like that himself in the Silver Age)

 

[TheBoyBlunder]

NRS games are probably not for them, then. We know what to expect at this point!

whats wrong with evolving? MKX virtually gave us tons of characters with 3 different variations. The gear system in IGAU2 is cool, but Deathstroke, NW, Lex Luthor are staple characters in DC comics.

Well even though there was a 99.99% chance of it being real, I guess that confirms you-know-who.

Now... I wonder why there are so many achievements that are unlocked by "landing X move as the last attack with Y character against Z character", kinda weird.

 

[ImTheBatman]

Ha! I love the Donkey Kong reference achievement. "Going Ape: Throw 3 kegs during a match with Gorilla Grodd at the Ace o' Clubs"

 

[SaltShaker]

Wrong!!! Wonder Women cut his suit and he left for spcae so he could explode without damaging the planet.

Other thwn that he BODIED Superman. Do you even know who Captain Atom IS and his abilities? He can literally blast Duperman with Red Solar Energy, atomic.manipulation, nuclear manipulation, with Strength, flight and speed, and even more i refuse to list.

Captain Atom is one of the JL's STRONGEST. And one of the most POWERFUL members of the entire DC roster.

We know exactly who he is.

 

[RagsTheGoat]

Who makes the subforums?
Because its missing quite a few character subs.

Ive noticed that a lot on tym. That the sub forums for characters in any game arent always current.

Especially because Canary <3

Lol what? It's the lead admins who have control over sub-forum creation like STORMS.

I was referring to @SneakyTortoise and @CrazyFingers

Edit: They probably know now, but at the time of when I posted, I was informed that only certain staff members were able to create sub-forums.

 

[MKF30]

Man I hope that rumor that StormGoddess posted is true, that would be some sick DLC! Though I don't care much for Vixen or Manta, Manta especially seems dull IMO. I don't see the hype for that character. But Plastic Man would be fun.

 

[CrazyFingers]

I was referring to @SneakyTortoise and @CrazyFingers

We're newer and making sub-forums hasn't come up as a problem since we've become moderators. Now we know tho and I assumed that's who handled them.

 

[Gamer68]

Welp, it's been over 2 months since I made this thread, and finally the complete base-roster has been confirmed with the leak of the last character.

I've updated OP with a complete-and-confirmed roster leak, as well as my thoughts on the roster and what to expect moving closer to Injustice 2's launch!
