I haven’t seen this news posted, so I just thought it would be nice to share with the community (Small picture btw):


As much as I love the “Normal one”, I was disappointed we didn’t get any female to represent the MK side, but this amazing cover not only features Wonderwoman again, it also has Sonya Blade representing the MK side!

Yay! grin

It’s such a very pretty+cool cover and the characters look fantastic. Even from that small pic you can tell how menacing Sonya, Batman and Scorpion look. But one thing that should be kept in mind, is that this picture might probably not be the new cover for the collectors edition, maybe its the cover for the Comic Book John Tobias drew!

That would also be fantastic! grin

The characters, in order of size and place in the box picture are:

From MK:

1- Scorpion
2- Sonya
3- Rayden
4- Sub-Zero
5- Kano
6- Liu Kang

From DC:

1- Batman
2- Wonderwoman
3- Superman
4- Flash
5- Green Lantern
6- Captain Marvel (?)

I’m extremely happy they chose Sonya yet again (actually, I'm overall happy with all the coverage and stuff we've gotten from her since the start), but I do admit I would had loved to see other male characters. Obviously, there isn’t enough room in that box art pic.

Overall, AWESOME cover or comic book pic! Much better then the normal one.

PS3 only will have a digital comic book- same content as the printed piece, but in a digital form.


Seems the PS3 version has an extra digital comic book. That's kinda cool. I was, however, hoping for a playable MKI or UMK3 attached to the kollectors edition. Oh well. *sighs*

Also on EB Games and Gamestop websites if you preorder the Kollector's Edition you get a MK lithograph. I preordered my PS3 Kollector's Edition a little over a week ago. They never mentioned a lithograph, but I will be asking for it when I pick up the game on the 11th!!! I'm sure it's nothing special, but it might be a kollectors item later on.

Scorpion is such a whore. Get the hell out of the way, you egotistical banana suite lummox!

He's on every box. Right in yer face. "Hey, look, guys! It's me Scorpion! It's MK, buy it! It's got a blue ninja and a yellow ninja (me), and now for a limited time only, costumed vigilantes! Get over here and buy it or this lightning bolt will fry yer ass!"

Yeah I was wondering bout that 2confused O well but anyway I wished they would do something like Tekken 5 somebody mention MK1 or UMK3 wanting to be in it. but Tekken 5 had 3 Tekken (1-3) arcade games in it and that was a PS2 game. I would totally love it if they would include MK1, MK2, and MK3 that would totally be awesome! glasses

This looks amazing, and Alex Ross is an incredible artist but what the fuck happened to the shirt we were supposed to receive in this preorder?!?!

The price has stayed the same, yet the shirt is NOT there anymore?

I'm seriously furious.

According to Gamestop and EB game, if you preorder the standard version of MK vs. DC, then you get a free bonus item. THis item happens to be the t-shirt.

Which is strange because i ordered the Kollectors Edition and the bonus item is a lithograph. I wonder why they changed the bonus item.

That is kind of odd...hmm. But hey, I think I rather have the lithograph. Cant wait to see this stuff!

I'm so happy with this cover (box or comic)!

Since the theme seemed to be the heroes from both sides, why did they go with Kano instead of Jax?

Don't get me wrong, I love it the image, but I'm just curious.

Scorpion is not really one of the heroes, so I doubt that was their intention.

Also, as much as I like Jax, he isnt as iconic or recognizable as the ones that were chosen for the cover. We know the metal arms scream MK, but Kano has a lot more of that factor.
