I'm not a fan of her model's face, but it's the least of her problems. Honestly it's the ugly hood that brings out the worst in it.

But yeah. Stephen Amell voicing Arrow kind of made up for the disappointment there.

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/14/black-adam-spotted-injustice-gods-among-us-character-selection-screen/ He's been mentioned before, seen in cutscenes, lots of people assumed he'd be playable. Well, here's an almost-confirmation.

Edit: Aaand confirmed.

Raven's video was added to the official channel today as well, if anybody cares, which I doubt.

Huh...So Raven is still voiced by Tara Strong. Interesting how they had her do a different take of the character. I'm definitely happy to hear that, but it doesn't change my want for a Teen Titans skin and requisite voice though.

Edit: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/news/news-14431-Injustice--Gods-Among-Us-Season-Pass-Unveiled.html four DLC characters are in planning already.

Aaand on the day I pre-order, we get our final (?) character.

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/22/killer-frosts-snowflake-emblem-spotted-during-injustice-gods-among-us-pax-east-presentation/

At least the last one we (sorta) knew about. Killer Frost was the big suggestion besides Raven for that achievement image. Also because she's a villain and all the characters in that image were villains.

BTW EB/Gamestop has the Arkham City skin pack in addition to the Red Son content pack. I would recommend pre-ordering there.

Also, according to Harley's character trailer (check the official channel) she's actually a hero in this. Found her "true calling" after The Joker bit it.

Who the **** is Killer Frost? I love Firestorm and I've never heard of her.

She has appeared quite few times in the DC cartoons.

Looks like she has a killer mohawk in this game. (That's probably an alt though, since we saw her in in the achievement icon already and she looked like so.)
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/23/killer-frost-confirmed-injustice-gods-among-us-images-pax-show-her-inclusion-battles-during-str-labs-missions/

S.T.A.R. Labs mode is basically the new challenge tower, except arranged into a mission structure like other fighting games rather than being linear (if you paid attention to the challenge tower, you tended to play as the same character for 5+ match sets, then you get a mini-game, then another character, and so on.)

You can earn stars (hah) by completing certain tasks within each mission (does actually beating the mission get you anything?) so there's many different goals. I approve!

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/23/5-or-6-characters-still-unannounced-injustice-gods-among-us-filipino-champ-calls-out-mortal-kombat-community/

I have a feeling this might not be entirely accurate. Black Adam was leaked from a character select screen a few weeks ago (even though I can't find him in the shots below,) and I would imagine that build is the same as the one being showcased at PAX. There were other recent reveals that were missing from the select screen.

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/14/black-adam-spotted-injustice-gods-among-us-character-selection-screen/

Shazam, Hawkgirl, Doomsday and Killer Frost are certainly missing. Considering that Filipino Champ says that there's "5 or 6," I assume he's saying "6 minus Black Adam." There were 6 remaining slots in that image...Meaning that we've got two more dudes yet to be revealed.

Of course the Filipino Champ article also says that the PAX build features all playable characters and there are still 5 or 6 to go, so maybe I'm wrong. Maybe they've changed the character select screen to add more slots. Either way, 24 (minimum) is still a solid number of characters.

Edit: Here's a better shot of the character select screen (I dig how it's designed to set up a mock fight scene between the fighters) and a view of stage select.
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/24/custom-injustice-gods-among-us-arcade-cabinets-pax-east-images-character-and-stage-select-screens/
I also now realize that I confused Black Adam for Sinestro in that previous screenshot. I also completely forgot to include one of them in my previous estimate, so, without any changes to that screen we've only got one unrevealed fighter. Or if the PAX build is entirely up to date, 5 or 6 more.

Looks like there's a voting system for stage select...Not sure how that's supposed to work for a two player game. Maybe it has more relevance to online play; MK9 had some touted King of the Hill mode or whatever.

And then there was Ares.

Edit: So those two are confirmed because of official art, but it seems much like the Challenge Tower in MK9, there are some one-off characters (like Johnny Cage's stuntman and director.)
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/28/martian-manhunter-atrocitus-trigon-two-face-spotted-during-ign-str-labs-demo-injustice-gods-among-us/

Even though Trigon appears here, he likely isn't a fully playable character. Two-Face and Atrocitus seem to be interactive background elements (we already know that Two-Face is part of a transition in Arkham Asylum,) based on the mission descriptions, and MM's just a background cameo.

Oh yeah, and a demo will be released on the 2nd of April. Bats, Wonder Woman and Luthor will be playable.

I wish the demo was a little better in terms of options, but I've heard it's an old build so I'm not too bummed, especially since the game is out soon.

That said, I do like how it feels, more natural than MK9 imo.
