Okay, here's what I can figure out to MK's most burning questions: 1. [i]Reptile is a man, not a lizard![/i] Actually, Reptile comes from a race of Raptors, descendants of some dinosaurs from earth that ran off during Raiden's war with Shinnok. They escaped into Zaterra and made a home for themselves, until Shao Kahn killed them all after he took over their realm after winning mortal kombat. They are, in essence, humanoid lizards that can put up a glamour to alter their appearance to that of a normal human or render them invisible. It's rumored that Reptile's 'devolution' was caused by his separation from the Raptor Matriarch, but considering how long the Raptor race had been dead, that seems unlikely. 2.[i]I thought Johnny Cage died in MK3! So why does MK: Deady Alliance say that it was just a story plot for his next movie?[/i] Actually, I have played Deadly Alliance in both Konquest and Arcade mode with Cage, and I've noticed only his bio says anything about his death and ressurrections being a movie plot line. I'm thinking that both happened: Johnny really died and came back to life twice in the past MK games, and when word of this got back to his producers, they decided to use it as a running gag in his next MK movie just to spite the full-of-himself actor. 3.[i]Is it true? Is Noob Saibot REALLY MK1 Subby?[/i] While it remains to be seen whether or not this ending will remain true when the next MK game comes out, Ed Boon and John Vogel both confirm that he is. Also, considering how evil MK1 Subby was (as seen in Mythologies), it isn't surprising that he'd become a Brother of the Shadow. However, a couple of things contradict this revelation: 1.) MK1 Subby knew all about Quan Chi's betrayal after the events of Mythologies, and considering that, at the time, Quan Chi was one of the leaders of the Brotherhood, it would seem unlikely that MK1 Subby would join up with his enemy just to gain more power. 2.) After his infiltration into the Netherealm, it's known that the Brotherhood HATES MK1 Subby, since he fought against them and killed at least two of their best followers in the process. Again, unlikely that they'd invite him into their ranks after he died. So, it still remains a mystery whether or not he IS Noob. Only time will tell the full truth. 4. [i]Reiko is Shao Kahn! The GB version of MK4 confirms it![/i] Wrong, pal. Although we did see Reiko put on Shao Kahn's helmet in his MK4 ending, both Boon and Vogel have confirmed that the two are NOT the same person. In fact, if you talk to Kahn in Deception's Konquest mode, he'll tell you that they aren't one and the same, although Reiko DOES have some weird fetish for wearing Kahn's helmet when the Outworld Emperor's away. And, unless you're talking about MK: Tournament Edition, NO GB/GBA version of ANY MK game is considered cannonical to the overall storyline. 5. [i]Why is Scorpion trying to kill Subby again in MK4? I thought those two made up in MK2?[/i] Well, technically, yes, they did. HOWEVER, remember that in Scorpion's MK4 bio, it was QUAN CHI that enticed the ninja spectre into joining with Shinnok, so it's highly possible that the sorcerer appealed to his sense of justice and revenge and convinced him that, while Subby may NOT be the one who killed his family and clan, he is still Lin Kuei, and as such, is just as responsible for their murder as the rest of his clan. So, if convinced of that, it's very likely that Scorpion would buck his truce with his former enemy to finally complete his revenge and allow his soul to rest.
