Summary:

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
The issue starts off with the section that was previewed. Fox and Takeda are facing eachother in a training exercise and Fox easily wins. Immediately after, we come back to them "years later" in the same situation. Fox wins again and Scorpion lectures Takeda on not playing around and using his speed to his advantage. Fox stands up for him, which causes Scorpion to give Fox the task of protecting Takeda from the coming threat. As he accepts this job.. he hears a strange voice in his head, claiming to be "his own thoughts in his own head".

Scorpion had received an unexpected and unwelcome visitor earlier that day, Raiden. He mentions Scorpion still safeguarding the dagger that Raiden gave to him, it looks like it could be another kamidogu. Raiden is there to warn him of a threat. "The Netherrealm invasion damaged cosmic barriers that protect earth from realms beyond. Before I could repair them, something broke through. A powerful demon from another realm." This being apparently wants to destroy earth's champions (Scorpion, Johnny, and Sonya are included among them.) Raiden mentions there being far fewer of them than there used to be, and Scorpion blames Raiden for it. He leaves to warn the others. "He's a liar and a fool, but when Raiden pays you a visit.. People are going to die.

Fox is to protect Takeda, and both are to kill this demon before it kills them, should they need to. They are surrounded by an army of assassins, and safe as they can be.

Fox is awoken by the voice in his mind. "Fulfill the blood code". He is instructed to pick up the dagger(kamidogu?) and mutilate his face. "The flesh is a lie, the blood code is truth". He wakes up Takeda and puts the dagger to his throat. His face is completely peeled off(Meat style). It's revealed that he murdered the rest of the Shirai Ryu, as they all lay around them, dead. He will take Takeda to Hanzo and show him that he is not afraid of death.

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)So, Fox is the new Meat? Drahmin?
Will he claw out Takeda's eyes?
Will Raiden win "god of misfortune" prize?
Will Scorpion loose his (little) character development?
Will writers figure out that killing the same clan twice is NOT a good idea (as well as pandering for stupid haters)?
Who is this demon thing?

Now I'm really hoping this comic continues beyond the game ala injustice.

God damn what a second chapter!! At this rate, I'm really beginning to like this little twist. It's like a better, more improved deceptive storyline than what we got with Shujinko. Here's hoping if it stays this good, Fox is a playable character.

Wow that 2nd issue was awesome!

However i see one problem on the horizon!

Imagine Fox would be killed off in the comic and not be in the game.
It kinda hate that, because man did he get introduced to us in that 2nd issue and honestly, who wouldnt want to lay the whopping on him in MKX after reading that 2nd issue?

This particular problem will probably continue as im sure we will get introduced to a lot of new characters in the comics about whom we can't be sure wether we will see them in the game or not. I just hope there won't be too many comic only characters that I can connect to or else the MKX game which im sooo anxiously waiting for, might turn out to be a game where me and others will continously ask the question "why didnt this guy make it into the game? Why didnt that guy make it into the game?" and since we probably won't be seeing alot of the old cast anyway we will already be asking these questions one way or the other.... furious

Read it, loved it. The second chapter is just as good as the first.

Also convinced that Kotal Kahn is the "demon" that slipped through the broken dimensional barriers, especially with all this "Blood Code" business.

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
so some new things to speculate about... who or what could this demon/demonic force be that took possession of forrest fox? I heard some people say its Drahmin but i also heard some say it must be Kotal Kahn because of the whole blood code thing...

Maybe the fighters that died in MK9 are now trapped in Kamidogus?
That would be a reasonable way to be able to bring them back, although i would prefer for them not to come back.
́

Also im really excited to see wether Fox is going to die in the next issue... him confronting Scorpion after killing his clan...again... actually doesnt really leave any other option, because Scorpion will certainly mutilate him when he finds out.... but since we havent seen Fox in the Ninja costume that was leaked yet there is the possibility that he also might come back as some sort of wraith, if he is possessed by a demon that kinda speaks the same language like their whole Hanzo mastered Scorpion agenda, which seems like Scorpion is also a demon that was mastered by Hanzo... so maybe we will get another demon with Fox only that Fox is being mastered by the demon in this case.

I wonder when we will see the sub zero part of the story continue.
Does anybody have an idea when issue #3 will be released? Will we get a new issue every sunday from now on?
