Twitter User Hit With Criminal Charges for Memetic Voter Suppression in 2016 Election

If the online MAGA army wasn’t nervous before today, the Department of Justice just gave them a good reason to tighten their sphincters.

Black Canary’s Birds of Prey Powers Were Influenced by the Injustice Games

Compared to the kinds of baddies she’s fought on the big screen in the past, Harley Quinn’s poised to go toe to toe with some much more street-level villains in Birds of Prey who mainly fight with regular weapons. But the Birds of Prey will have a distinct metahuman advantage on their side during their…

Injustice’s Batman Recruits He-Man to Fight Asshole Superman

Injustice is already one of DC’s most delightfully loopy alternate universes. Now, it’s going to get even better with a new crossover series that mashes that world up with the Masters of the Universe.

The Latest Injustice 2 Comic Indulges in Injustice‘s Favorite Pastime: Murder

But it’s a very specific kind of murder. The latest issue of the digital-first Injustice 2 series—written by Tom Taylor, and with art by Daniel Sampere and Rex Lokus, and lettering by Wes Abbott—tackles a question fans of the fighting game elseworld have had practically since the first game: What happened to Injustice’s Teen Titans?…

Witness the Moment Supergirl Arrives in the World of Injustice

Injustice 2 brought a lot of cool DC fan service to video games last month, but one of its best additions was making Supergirl part of the story.

Injustice‘s Booster Gold and Blue Beetle Might Be a Couple

The entire point of DC’s Injustice is to imagine a universe in which traditional canon is basically thrown out of the window in favor of a riveting series of what ifs. What if Superman became tyrannical despot? What if everyone had super strength? What if… Booster Gold and the Blue Beetle were lovers? In the…

In Injustice 2, the Joker’s Crowbar Means Nothing to Jason Todd

Before he became the Red Hood, Jason Todd met a grisly fate at the hands of the Joker in the iconic A Death in the Family storyline, including a horrifying beating with a crowbar. At least now in Injustice 2, Jason can enact some justice (both poetic and physically) against the clown prince of crime…

Injustice 2 Is a Master Class on How to Do Fan Service Right

On one hand, Injustice 2 delivers a funhouse-mirror take on DC Comics’ biggest characters, exploring the characters in intriguingly divergent ways. On the other hand, because it’s a fighting game, all the story needs to do is keep ginning up reasons for former Justice Leaguers to punch each other across the world. Injustice 2 gets…

The Thing Injustice 2 Gets Right About Harley Quinn That Suicide Squad Got Wrong

Much of Injustice 2’s charm stems from how it gives players the ability to make their favorite DC comic book characters beat the crap out of each other. Fighting aside, though, the game also features some pretty solid character development for one of DC’s most iconic antiheroes, Harley Quinn. In Injustice 2, Harley finds herself working…

Somehow, The Joker Is Back In Injustice 2 (Darkseid’s Here Too) [Update]

Look at that stance! The utter disdain! The Lord of Apokolips is going to be smug as all get-out when the next DC Comics fighting game hits next month. It’s not clear yet what role, if any, Darkseid will play in Injustice 2’s story. But it’s still nice to have the biggest cosmic threat to…

Dictator Superman and Terrorist Batman Reluctantly Join Forces to Fight an Even Bigger Threat in Injustice 2

In the Injustice universe, Kal-El wanted to rule the Earth in an ostensibly benevolent dictatorship, but a lot of people ended up dying at the Man of Steel’s hands. Brainiac? He’s coming to Injustice 2 to in an attempt to top Superman’s “achievement” by destroying the whole planet. If you were wondering what might possibly…

Injustice 2 Lets You Create the Boba Fett Batman You Always Dreamed of

Did you ever draw different costumes for Superman, Wonder Woman, or Cyborg in your Social Studies notebook? Yeah, me too. The upcoming Injustice 2 video game sort of lets you do the same thing, including a Dark Knight that looks like he’s wearing Mandalorian battle armor. One of the major changes coming to Injustice 2…

I Drop-Kicked My Beautiful Superhero Son While Playing the First Four Story Missions in Injustice 2

Last week the rain was pouring, the streets were flooded, and I had zero desire to leave the comfort of my home. But the makers of Injustice 2 were offering an intimate demo, and by god I wanted to see what Supergirl looked like in DC’s best murderverse. I did get to see that (she…

Catwoman Is Bringing Exploding Motorbikes to Injustice 2

She’s also bringing cats, of course—they don’t call her catwoman for nothing. But the exploding bike is a surprising touch. Another day has come, which means inevitably more looks at Neatherrealm Studio’s upcoming DC comics brawler Injustice 2—and although we’d already seen a glimpse of Selina in action earlier, a new video gives us a…
