Battle Arena match-ups concluded this week, introducing Sinestro & Hawkgirl as the final two reveals from the sixteen character tournament. As they make the leap from rumor to confirmed playable character, the Injustice Facebook takes the opportunity to offer a closer look at both.


Sinestro faces Superman in the Week 4 main event, reflecting his history of absolute power corrupt upon the hero-turned-dictator of the Gods Among Us universe.

Sinestro was once a celebrated Green Lantern, but as his brand of justice turned to tyranny, he was ousted from the intergalactic Corps by his human protege, Hal Jordan. Empowered by the Weaponers of Qward, Sinestro eventually forged his own collective of lanterns, founding the fear wielding yellow ring slingers of the Sinestro Corps.


Hawkgirl substitutes for her male counterpart in this weeks second Superfight: picking up the tab of the Hawkman/Green Arrow rivalry fondly remembered from comics. Her mace seeks emerald archer's face in a clash of heroes famously featured in the Justice League Unlimited cartoon series.

With the distinction of being one of the first major female superheroes: Hawkgirl's long and winding history is irrevocably shared with (and borrowed from) Hawkman. The result is a complex double helix of lives, alien and human, defined by romance and violence. The pair are said to be the reincarnation of Thanagarians who inhabited Ancient Egypt - cursed to forever find each others love before an untimely death.

The two new additions bring the total confirmed roster to nineteen playable characters, with Doomsday's in-game status still unknown.
