In the end, everyone but Deadshot, Lex, Harley and Ares are on Superman's team, at least in terms of playable non-DLC characters. Oh and Green Arow, but he's dead. I'm gonna take a wild guess that Martian Manhunter and Batgirl end up on Batman's side, and that Zod and Lobo are on neither side.

It will match the quality of the film inside perfectly. I find it somewhat suspicious that as soon as Geoff Johns is promoted to a position of power in DC's film division that it almost immediately shifts focus from adapting classic arcs and stories to adapting recent, terrible Geoff Johns stories.

You make a good point. I'm pretty sure we were supposed to have an animated adaptation of the Killing Joke by now.

Yep. Manhunter's chilling out in Atlantis under the identity of Aquaman's advisor and Barbara Gordon started out as Oracle (which the prequel comic ignores) and became Batgirl after her father died due to Superman's regime. Zatana's also on Batman's side.

Scorpion's just confused and angry.

I only read the first few issues but I liked the One Year Later reboot called Sword of Atlantis.

Crowetron

I'm fairly certain that Scorpion's canon backstory for Injustice is that he teleported in the middle of a match in Mortal Kombat 9, accidentally warped to DC-ville, and just kept punching.

edit: He just thinks that Subzero threw on a bat costume real quick and doesn't even question it.

That was the best Aquaman comic I ever read. It felt a little half-baked at times but the costume for the new Aquaman was bitching and it was really trying to make Atlantis its own world instead of some weirdly generic fantasy kingdom. Only read a few issues myself though.

I think the best thing to do would be to have some people in the comic say,"Aquaman? But isn't he totally lame? :laugh:" and then suddenly Aquaman shows up and easily defeats a villain/saves the day etc, probably while saying something like,"I live under pressure intense enough to crush a human being and rule over 71% of the planet's surface, I'm as strong as Superman and smarter than Batman and have more willpower than Green Lantern."

That way fans will finally realize the error of their ways.

The way to make Aquaman cool and exciting is just to give him a beard. It's practically one hundred percent: clean-shaven iterations of Aquaman, not compelling. Bearded iterations of Aquaman, all good. I don't know how the alchemical process works but this is a reliable formula.

It has to be the right kind of beard, though, otherwise something like this happens.

Maybe that's why DC is pushing Cyborg so hard. "Look, now there's someone lamer that Aquaman on the Justice League."

Nah Cyborg is about 50% tokenism and 50% getting an Iron Man-style "tech hero" onto the JLA. It's exactly the same thing Grant Morrison tried to do with Steel back in the 90s JLA, but this time it's sticking. I've come around to accepting it a lot more than most of the other dumb New 52 stuff.

Now I hope there is some stupid joke in the comics that "Cyborg's part in a movie about us is being played by Shaq".

Also Cyborg has an arm cannon how is that lame :colbert:

Cyborg is lame because he is a cyborg and he is named cyborg and that is literally the only relevant information.

It's a terrible name and he has a terrible design and everything about cyborg is just terrible.

Hickman is making great use of beards in Avengers/New Avengers.
