Unlocking Elder God Kenshi means communing with five tiers of challenges! Each tier consists of 12 battles, with the exception of the final 15-fight challenge!

Bizarro Am Leaving Injustice 2 Such Soon
Superman's #1 Fan is coming soon to Injustice 2!

Not a hoax! Not an imaginary story! Bizarro is making his way to the battle field of Injustice 2! Still can't believe it? Just ignore the hideous character render not included below!

Bizarro is the classic Superman doppelganger whose mixed up "Bizarro" logic has become part of the vernacular, meaning anything a little backwards, or out of the ordinary.

First introduced in a 1958 issue of Superboy; Bizarro has gone on to be a perennial favourite of Superman comics, television, and cartoons, causing trouble and mischief as "Superman's #1 fan"!

His origins have varied, but the most iconic Bizarro hails from Bizarro World -- a cube shaped counter-Earth where all inhabitants are disfigured mirror images living a strange, opposite existence. Some of Bizarro's "worst enemies" (friends) include newer creations The Yellow Lantern and Batzarro! In Injustice: Gods Among Us tie-in comics, Bizarro is depicted in another popular form, as a failed cloning experiment perpetrated by another of Superman's foes: Lex Luthor!

Fans will have already noticed Bizarro using his unique "flame breath" and "freeze vision" on Starfire in a recent DLC preview trailer. The attacks reflect Bizarro's iconically mixed up powers, and raise questions over whether or not Bizarro will appear as a Premier Skin, or fully fledged downloadable character.

Edit (July 29th): The remote likelihood that this was more than a Premier Skin has very much been shot down by Ed Boon, who politely told a fan to "reconsider" the option, via Twitter.

EDITOR'S NOTE
Premier Skins are a great way to factor-in some of DC Comics' secondary characters who share commonalities with the main roster. It's great to see some version of Bizarro's freeze vision and flame breath represented, as well. We'd love to see NetherRealm use the freedom of Premier Skins to go the extra mile, using Bizarro logic to completely invert the player's controls. Forward is back, up is down. It wouldn't do much for the playing experience, but it's a fun idea.

Arcade Era Mortal Kombat Developers Share Reunion
Original Mortal Kombat developers reunite for dinner happy snap!

From the humble beginnings of a small handful of artists and programmers -- Mortal Kombat has grown into a multimedia goliath built by hundreds! This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the game that started it all - and nostalgic fans might be pleased to know the developers of the iconic original games still get together from time to time!


"Our regular Mortal Kombat 1-2-3 team reunion dinner.
Next time we gotta get Dan Forden & John Vogel to join us.
"

Series co-creator Ed Boon shared a photograph of the regular reunion a fortnight ago, dining with several faces familiar to long time fans [left to right]: Tony Goskie (MKII & MK3 Graphics), Dave Michicich (MK3 Graphics), Steve Beran (MK3 Graphics & Fallen Elder God) and John Tobias (Co-Creator)!

Boon noted the absence of series stalwarts Dan "Toasty" Forden (Music) and John Vogel (Graphics), whose contributions date back to the very first ">Mortal Kombat!

Speaking about the assembly of the original team in an interview with MK Online, John Tobias explained: "I approached Ed Boon, who was programming a football game called Super High Impact, and he was totally up for it. Dan Forden worked with Ed on that and came on board to do music and FX. John Vogel came on a portion of the way through between his other projects to help out on the backgrounds."

The legacy of their iconic work continues to have a last impact on the series a quarter of a century later! Most recently,Storm Collectibles revealed a range of new action figures based on the original games! They even offered a Comic Con Exclusive based on Noob Saibot - character named for the two series co-creators!

SDCC: Storm Collectibles Preview Prototype Figures
Kitana, Liu Kang, Baraka & LK Cyborgs previewed at SDCC Toy Booth

Hong Kong toy maker Storm Collectibles blew the doors of San Diego Comic Con this year with a booth display that showcased a complete range of new Mortal Kombat action figures!

The VS Series -- tentatively expected to be available Q3 2017 -- focuses on klassic icons of the arcade era. The four figure line-up namely draws from Mortal Kombat II, with emphasis on palette swaps. Fortunately -- a wide variety of prototype sculpts shows they have designs for far broader tastes and more discerning MK fans, too!


The additional action figures (pending licensor approval) preview: Mortal Kombat X Scorpion, Kitana, Baraka, either Sektor or Cyrax, and Liu Kang! Standing behind Kang is also a towering dragon -- familiar to any one who punched down, forward, back, back, high kick into MKII!

Unfortunately, all of these characters and incarnations have already been realized as action figures in the last five years. Size and features should set them apart though, and keep them consistent with the rest of the Storm VS Series line-up. No release detailers are available yet, but you can look at each sculpt closer by enlarging thumbnails [above].

Injustice 2 is the superhero fighting game among us - and its part of a big DC Comics line-up at this year's San Diego Comic Con! The latest trailer shows off Injustice newcomer Starfire! Check it out:

Starfire is an alien princess from the planet Tamaran whose natural physiology grants her phenomenal super-strength, speed, flight, and the ability to absorb energy. Scientific experimantation granted her the ability to channel energy she absorbs into deadly starbolts! She's a former Teen Titan, and in the world of Injustice, was banished to the Phantom Zone by the tyrannical Superman, who they attacked at the Fortress of Solitude.

Fighter Pack 1 concludes with the arrival of Starfire in August. She rounds out a triple threat of DLC characters that included Red Hood and Mortal Kombat guest fighter Sub-Zero!
