fuckin' called it, man
I can safely say that the choice of the additional DLC character (or characters) came from player requests!
You guys didn't vote for Martian Manhunter on the poll, too bad

Hopefully MMH and the poll top 3...I still want Static. And I still don't want Red Hood but I can deal with it if the other choices are good.
isn't she the poll winner?

Red Hood as a DLC character would be weird when there's already a Red Hood Joker skin.
We don't know, we just know that the top two are her and Jason.
But we all know deep in our hearts that the public is smart enough to choose a good character, and not a lame one.
yeah so Zatanna.
Face it Tiger..

Boon's trying enter the Elder-God tier troll realm.
The catch? That tv show is big bang theory.
holy shit this game is getting alot of exposure....
You're so silly.
What kind of TV show could it be on? Only one that deals with video games would be on a thursday, and we would already know who the 4th is because he will be playable on the showfloor at E3 by then.

If zod is playable at E3 it has to be a tv show on Monday or Tuesday.

Maybe it'll be tacked on to a Man of Steel commercial.

Giant Bomb exclusive
Zatanna may as well be a Batman character.
I'd see her more as a Green Arrow character than Batman....

So to sum it up the announcements today were:
Based on the last one I would think the choices can really only be Martian Manhunter, Supergirl, Power Girl, Zatanna, Red Hood, Static, Swamp Thing, Captain Cold, Atrocitus, and Jon Stewart.
My guess right now is it is going to be MMH, Supergirl, Zatanna, and Red Hood. Reddit guy continues to be right (he also said Zod would be playable at E3) and he said MMH and Supergirl are two of them. Would make sense for the top 2 in the poll to be the other two.
He primarily uses guns. I don't really see how you can differentiate his gunplay from what Deathstroke already does in this game. Deathstroke has a sword, and while Red Hood has been known to use that too, typically Jason uses a knife. Knife moves would be there instead of Sword moves. Sure, he would be a bit different. Them both primarily relying on guns though would make it very redundant.
That would make sense.
- There will be more than four total DLC characters
- Zod will be playable at E3 next week
- Zod will be shown on a TV show next week
- The next round of DLC characters will be from player requests

For the sake of balance, I'd swap Zatanna out for a gadget villain: Poison Ivy, Captain Cold, or Professor Zoom.
I don't doubt that NetherRealm could make Red Hood fun, but god, what an awful pick. I'm so grateful the "fans" aren't responsible for making rosters. We'd have nothing but teenage angst antiheroes and sexually objectified women.
Or you just have bad taste.
Stay salty.
I like red hood because of what represents, not because he is just cool guy with guns, he could fight with peaches umbrella for all i god damned care.
You sound super pretentious , so could you please stop.
What? Zatanna is amazing thank you very much. We aint getting Power girl who is objectivied sexually
Yeah what an odd statement. Stop being pretentious for not liking the guy with guns like I do!
I don't care who you choose to like or not like, but what exactly is it that Red Hood represents to you?
I wasn't talking about Zatanna.

There is already a Red Hood skin. Why would you introduce a character who resembles a skin already in the game?
I could give a jack shit if the guy was talking about booster gold
( I HATE BOOSTER GOLD)
His statement about the fans choice is what got me.
You know I voted for skull girls characters.
The ones I voted for lost, you know what I did. I dealt with.
Because taste were not relevant to the majorities interests.

I guess I figured that anyone who would purchase DLC characters would actually be more interested in MK characters than a silly guest. I think Rain and Kenshi have a following.
I'm curious to see what the breakdown is of people who bought characters individually versus the season pass.

There are 3 villains in the first batch of DLC. It makes sense to balance it out with 3 heroes in the second batch.
I have no doubt Red Hood will be cool. I have no doubt he will be different. But I do, however, think that he offers nothing new in terms of potential.
Guns? Check. Knives? Check. Gadgets? Check. Personality though...that's something new.
All those things will be used in different ways for sure, I just prefer someone with a wholly different moveset potential that stands out from the roster. I.e. Every possible thing that could be done with Swamp Thing, Larfleeze, Mera, Dr. Fate, Red Tornado ... etc, would beat out every possible thing that could be done with Red Hood in terms of being totally unique from the current cast.

I'm still not sure what you're talking about. The only character I really want is Martian Manhunter, who wasn't on the poll at all and will probably be DLC. I'm not "salty." I don't care that the character I voted for lost. Anyone in addition to Martian Manhunter is a bonus to me, and that's including Red Hood. I can "deal with" him without having to like him.

That's what I wanna know... He's not exactly a super deep character or anything.
Anyways, cool to see the big support from NRS. I didn't buy the first season pass since I'm not really interested in any of those characters, but I can see myself buying the second one.
