Injustice: Gods Among Us is an April 2013 DC Comics Fighting Game developed by NetherRealm Studios, the company behind the Mortal Kombat reboot in 2011. The game is the first installment of the Injustice franchise.The game's story is set in an Alternate Universe where Superman renounces his beliefs following the death of his wife Lois Lane and the destruction of Metropolis at the hands of the Joker and Harley Quinn, causing him to murder the Joker in cold blood, much to Batman's horror. Sometime later, Superman professes his intentions to rid the world of all crime and tyranny to the United Nations, with him and Wonder Woman reforming the Justice League into a police force to enforce the will of their One Earth government, causing Batman to rebel and form a resistance group composed of badass normals, vigilantes and novice metahumans to fight against Superman's authoritarian government. However, years of fighting leave Batman as the only active member of the resistance after most of his team is either killed, wounded, or deserted, forcing him to use a device built by Lex Luthor (who is a good guy in this universe) to summon a Justice League from another universe, a universe where they are still paragons of hope and justice.The game has a similar gameplay to 2011's Mortal Kombat reboot but with a few additions such as interactive objects in the stages with the characters with Super-Strength having the ability to use heavy objects to attack their opponent while badass normals use those objects to evade attacks. Also, there are stage transitions that can be triggered using a heavy attack on a specific part of the stage, and each character have a special ability unique to them such as Superman having a short damage buff, Wonder Woman changing her fighting style from barehanded to a heavier sword & shield style and Aquaman summoning a water shield that increases defense.The playable cast includes: Batman Characters: Batman, The Joker, Harley Quinn, Nightwing, Catwoman, Bane, Batgirl (DLC), Damian Wayne (Regime Nightwing costume), Batman (Thomas Wayne) (DLC Costume), Batman Beyond (DLC Costume), Arkham Knight (mobile only), Cassandra Cain (mobile only), Killer Croc (mobile only), The Batman Who Laughs (mobile only) Superman Characters: Superman, Lex Luthor, Doomsday, General Zod (DLC), Lobo (DLC) Green Lantern Characters: Hal Jordan, John Stewart (DLC costume), Sinestro, Solomon Grundy, Jessica Cruz (mobile only) The Flash Characters: The Flash (Barry Allen), Jay Garrick (DLC costume), Kid Flash (mobile only), Reverse Flash (mobile only) Aquaman Characters: Aquaman Green Arrow Characters: Green Arrow, Arrow (DLC Costume) Justice League of America Characters: Hawkgirl, Killer Frost, Martian Manhunter (DLC), Zatanna (DLC) Teen Titans Characters: Cyborg, Deathstroke, Raven Shazam!

Canon Foreigner: The Red Son Solomon Grundy skin was created just for the game. The Archives even give a backstory for his character, along with traits he possesses. Red Son Grundy is the same as Regular Grundy, but lacks the limited intelligence to act on his own. Same deal with the Red Son Deathstroke. | |

Applied Phlebotinum: Just how can normal human characters like Batman and Green Arrow survive fighting against Meta-humans like Superman and Wonder Woman? By consuming a small little pill based on Kryptonian nanotech that instantly increases body tissue and bone density by a percentage of several thousands. It's also a case of Gameplay and Story Integration as this is mentioned in Story Mode. | |

Age Lift: In the comics, Damian Wayne's age is somewhat nebulous and depends on who is writing him, but he's usually depicted as a middle schooler at the absolute oldest.note Robin (2021) explicitly gives his age as 14, for instance. In this game, he's a grown adult and has taken on the Nightwing mantle. | |

Trailers Always Spoil: Whilst a great effort was made to conceal that the story wasn't a straight up war between Superman's Regime & Batman's Insurgency, the Harley Quinn character trailer gave away Joker's presence in the storyline after his apparent death at Superman's hands whilst the Green Lantern trailer outright revealed that a group of heroes are being pulled from another timeline and/or universe to help fight the Regime. | |

Darker and Edgier: Injustice is much grittier than previous games based on DC properties, including Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. The story features half the heroes entering He Who Fights Monsters territory while multiple others die in exceedingly brutal ways. The premise of the game is "What would happen if The Joker breaks Superman?" | |

The Batman Mythos also have locations represented, with plenty of Batman characters to share them with. The Dark Knight himself though has both Wayne Manor and The Batcave, with the rest having Gotham City, Arkham Asylum, or Joker's Asylum. Aquaman has Atlantis. Green Lantern has Ferris Aircraft. Wonder Woman and Ares have Themyscira. | |

Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: Regime Superman became a Knight Templar bent on ending crime at all costs, having been tricked by Joker into murdering his wife Lois and nuking Metropolis, but devolves a twisted tyrant ruthlessly obsessed to subjugate the Earth, especially when he killed Shazam and Luthor while ranting about the populace "complaining" about his dictatorial rule. He even planned to invade the Multiverse, kill Mainstream Superman and forcefully take Mainstream Lois Lane as his bride even if she won't like it. | |

Gone Horribly Right: Played with. While Joker got exactly what he wanted, to corrupt a paragon like Superman, and getting what he wanted did cost him his life, in his final moments he shows absolutely no signs of remotely caring about the whole "costing his life" part. His final words are simply a burst of maniacal laughter as Superman plunges his fist straight through Joker's ribcage. | |

Alternate Timeline | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_19b6f396 | comment |
Alternate Timeline: The game's story involves heroes and villains from a "normal" timeline being pulled into a Dystopian timeline where only one or two major events turned out differently. "Classic Battles" mode also provides individual ending stories for each character which are mutually exclusive, since the final battle for every character involves him or her personally overthrowing Regime Superman. This is particularly the case for the villains, who generally end up ruling the world in his place. | |

Pop-Cultural Osmosis | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_19bec249 | comment |
Catwoman in the comics has been an antihero since the early 90's. Still a thief, but on the side of good overall. In the game, however, she is grouped with the villains. This is doubtlessly because Pop-Cultural Osmosis still considers her to be one of Batman's most well-known adversaries, despite the fact that she's been his ally for over twenty years. The game at least makes nods to this; in-game dialogue mentions that her allegiances are unclear, and in her ending, she essentially becomes the hero she is in the comics. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: Suffice to say that the trailers can be very misleading as to how the plot and characters develop. The whole "alternate universe" aspect of the plot isn't even hinted at in the trailers, for instance. Wonder Woman's line in particular... "Men's aggression cannot be tempered, only quelled. We are here to save mankind." It is actually spoken by two different versions of Wonder Woman: Regime for the first half, and the main universe version for the second. | |

Reformed, but Rejected: Harley Quinn allying with Batman and helping fight the Regime did not fix the fact she helped the Joker cause the incident that set the whole story of the game into effect. Several of Batman's allies point out that she could easily slip back into her old ways, and that she isn't excused for her actions. Harley herself even admits that she hasn't quite gotten over her villain phase and struggles with the mental damage that came from it. | |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: The death of Regime!Shazam. Regime!Superman starts off by choking him. When Shazam attempts to counter by summoning his magic lightning with "Shazam!", Superman cuts him off by freezing his mouth shut. Superman then uses his heat vision to roast through Shazam's skull to the other side. Of note is that Shazam is still a child in a grown-up body. | |

Bloodier and Gorier | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_1f963842 | comment |
Bloodier and Gorier: Ironically, while the game has a T-rating and eschews most connections to the Mortal Kombat franchise, it goes for a considerably more graphical depiction of violence than the cartoony Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. While the action is adequate to its Superhero universe, battles are accompanied by significant amounts of blood and most combat techniques are very visceral in nature, especially when blades like Wonder Woman's sword or Catwoman's claws are involved. In a way it makes sense, as it helps hammer home the emotional impact of a DC Universe where everything has gone horribly, tragically wrong for the characters, who now find themselves pitted against former friends and allies, viciously fighting each other against the backdrop of a Crapsack World, with both sides believing that their side is the only hope to make it better. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Catwoman in the comics has been an antihero since the early 90's. Still a thief, but on the side of good overall. In the game, however, she is grouped with the villains. This is doubtlessly because Pop-Cultural Osmosis still considers her to be one of Batman's most well-known adversaries, despite the fact that she's been his ally for over twenty years. The game at least makes nods to this; in-game dialogue mentions that her allegiances are unclear, and in her ending, she essentially becomes the hero she is in the comics. Almost every member of the Regime fits this, being much more ruthless than their mainstream counterparts, but Wonder Woman takes the cake. She makes even her Flashpoint version look like a saint in comparison. | |

Gaining the Will to Kill | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_2881d45e | comment |
Gaining the Will to Kill: Deconstructed. After killing the Joker in revenge for nuking Metropolis and the death of his wife Lois, an alternate version of Superman Face–Heel Turn snaps and takes a hardline approach to solving crime. Part of the conflict between him and Batman is him breaking of the Thou Shalt Not Kill rule. As time passes, he accepts killing for justice, but he also Jumps Off The Slippery Slope, transforming him into an Ax-Crazy, raging maniac who reacts with outright brute force when others call him out on his actions. The way he kills Shazam and Lex Luthor in a cold-blooded manner, and unleashes his thugs to quash any dissent against his rule shows the ruthless monster he's now become, a far cry from the idealistic hero he once was. | |

Order Is Not Good: Superman's Regime is an absolutely totalitarian and brutal government that aims to impose peace through fear, and has made countless of victims across Earth and beyond (many of them were his former allies). It still acknowledged as a force of order that managed to end warfare and conflict, to the point the Greek God of War Ares is extremely weakened with no more strife and violence to feed him, allowing mortal heroes to kick his ass. When the Regime is toppled, balance is completely ruined and the order enforced by the Regime crumbles with supervillains coming out of the woodwork to fill in the power gap. | |

Helmets Are Hardly Heroic: Lex Luthor wears a suit of Power Armor which leaves his bald head completely exposed; not what we might expect from a genius (though in other continuities this suit is explicitly said to invisibly shield his head as well with force fields), but we definitely know who it is in there. | |

Combo Breaker: The Clash, which is only available on your character's second health bar. However, in addition to breaking a combo, there's also a wagering portion where each player "bets" part of their super meter. If you bet more than your opponent, you recover health; otherwise, you take additional damage. This means that you have to take care when activating a Clash. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Between rounds, Solomon Grundy will blurt out "Grundy smash!" Now why does that sound familiar? When Cyborg forced to side with Alternate Deathstroke he says "You will follow my lead." a line Aqualad had in Young Justice, and his voice briefly softens to sound like his Aqualad voice. In addition to that, Cyborg calls Deathstroke by his real name and has his "Boo-Yah!" catchphrase. At one point, Cyborg uses what looks like holograms to disguise as his alternate self in order to infiltrate the Hall of Justice, similarly to what does in the Teen Titans (2003) episode "Deception". One of Green Lantern's moves (keep in mind that he's played by Adam Baldwin) is to whip out a machine gun. | |

Villainous Legacy: Injustice-verse Joker, thanks to his sinister legacy of causing Superman's downfall. Joker certainly had the last laugh as Batman and Superman hate each other, the Justice League is dissolved for good, and worst of all, the Injustice-verse becomes a Crapsack World. If he were alive to see the chaos he's unleashed in his wake, the Joker would have been cackling mad with glee. | |

Psychopathic Manchild: Regime Superman has definite shades of this. His decision to destroy Metropolis and Gotham comes off more as a temper tantrum over the fact that they don't like him very much than any sort of tactical move. When he encounters his good counterpart, the main Supes can barely get a word in since Regime Superman keeps interrupting him to complain about his backstory. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: For the "Injustice" Universe. The Regime's rampage through Gotham and Metropolis is put to a stop, and the surviving leaders of the dictatorship are either apprehended or willingly turn themselves in. That being said, many heroes become evil, hundreds of people have died as a result of the conflict, including two morally decent people (Lex Luthor and Shazam), and the best chance that this Universe had at world peace has been fragmented. This allows Brainiac to invade Earth with no fuss in Injustice 2. In "Classic Battles", many of the individual stories get these. A few highlights: Catwoman regrets her association with the Regime, but can't bring herself to apologize to Bruce Wayne for her actions and spends the rest of her life shadowing him as a crime fighter. Green Arrow visits his counterpart's memorial and trains a replacement for him. It's revealed that Batgirl initially took up crimefighting after the murder of her father, Commissioner Gordon, by Superman's Regime. | |

Non-Lethal K.O.: Even more than non-lethal, matches end simply with the defeated character on one knee (so they're not even lying on the ground knocked out). This can be after things like Superman punching them above the Earth's atmosphere then back down again or Batman summoning the Batmobile to run them over have occurred during the fight. Metahuman and mortal alike survive their bouts intact no worse for the wear (in-canon this is explained by the normal humans taking a special pill that makes them resilient enough to contend with the likes of Superman or Doomsday). | |

On top of this, Superman also does things like having Aquaman agree to merging Atlantis with Superman's regime to ensure safety. Sure, the world has peace, but it comes at the price of the people having little to no personal freedoms. | |

Combat Pragmatist: Interactive environments are a part of the game, with characters being able to use them to hurt opponents. Different characters however, have different ways of doing them. For example, Batman slams enemies onto a car, while Solomon Grundy slams a car onto enemies. | |

Gods Need Prayer Badly: The alternate Ares decides to help the good guys because Regime Superman's rule over the planet is wiping out conflicts, which starves him of his power. His classic ending reveals that this didn't work for him either, since the heroes brought peace in the wake of the Regime's overthrow. | |

New Work, Recycled Graphics: A cross-company example. Some of the character models are reused from the Arkham games (such as Riddler and Scarecrow in the Arkham stage) likely to save time in development, though this is intentional in the case of Batman and Joker, as they both have their Arkham Game looks as Mythology Gag skins. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: The Classic Battles mode considered as mini-stories are decidedly this when you play them as the villains, considering that the final battle is always against Regime Superman. This inevitably means that The Villain Wins. In a variety of Alternate Universe endings, we get to see what each individual villain's conquest would have been like. There's a more personal but especially depressing ending to Harley Quinn's story; having defeated Superman, she crosses to the main universe, frees Joker from prison, and marries him. Then, after he slams her face-first into the wedding cake, she snaps and cuts his throat with the cake knife, then checks herself into Arkham, where she stays, still in her blood-stained wedding dress. Raven's Classic Battle ending, in spite of being able to play as the Mainstream Raven, is a downer as well. Defeating Regime!Superman forced Raven to pull out all stops that when the deed is done, Trigon was released to the main DC universe and thanks her for allowing him to create a hell on Earth, and there's literally nothing Raven could do to prevent this disaster. | |

However, while fatally wounding someone over a harmless prank would normally be pretty harsh, the game states that her violent reaction was the result of enduring his Domestic Abuse for years, until she just finally couldn't take anymore and snapped. | |

Bond One-Liner: Several in the story mode. Albeit, there are no actual fatalities, characters do have their chance to throw in their quips after kicking the living daylights out of their opponent. After the defeat of Doomsday. Joker gets one as well whenever he wins as he douses the opponent in gasoline and then utters, "You're fired," just as he drops a lit match. Green Arrow, perhaps the king of one-liners in the game, utters this one. | |

Silly Rabbit, Cynicism Is for Losers!: This is the crux of the conflict in the game. The Joker has performed what he believes is his ultimate achievement, make Superman suffer that "one bad day", and Supes is so blinded by his grief that he decides to ditch heroics altogether and Take Over the World alongside other superheroes that have been driven to similar levels of cynicism by various misfortunes (some of which are Supes' fault). The heroes that fight against them are all banded together under the banner that shit happening to you doesn't means that you should take it out on the rest of the universe, and in the majority of the Multiple Endings they go on to become the symbols of hope that the world desperately needs. | |

Injustice Harley wants to kill the Joker after the latter despises her, but Injustice Lex Luthor dissuades her of doing so. Zigzagged by Alt Flash when Alt Superman is preparing to execute Batman to lure out the rest of the Insurgency; Alt Flash brings up a comparison to the Joker before being silenced by Superman's Death Glare. | |

Black-and-Grey Morality: Sure, Superman and his supporters began as a Well-Intentioned Extremist faction, who have many right points in their actions, but their steady decline to tyranny and growing abandonment of morality in their crimefighting led them to become real villains. However, Injustice Batman isn't entirely blameless: he refuses to help Superman cope with his emotional trauma, continues to follow his Thou Shalt Not Kill rule to stupid and hypocritical ends, lies, and uses more and more unscrupulous means to fight against the Regime, nearly always causing more disasters and making others and himself sink deeper into despair. | |

Sanity Slippage: After being tricked into killing his wife Lois Lane and nuking Metropolis by The Joker, Superman establishes a dictatorship on Earth. He Can't Take Criticism by responding with outright violence at times, ranting about how "ungrateful" people are towards his rule, and blaming others for his misfortunes. He even kills two of his own allies when they realize how far he's fallen, and threatens to destroy Metropolis and Gotham when people began revolting. Regime Superman even develops an obsession on Multiverse Lois when told about it, planning to forcefully take her as his bride even if she won't like it and kill Multiverse Superman. By the end of the game, he's much worse than the insane clown he killed earlier. | |

After witnessing this, Regime-Flash tells Yellow-Lantern Hal Jordan that he became part of Superman's crusade to make the world a safer place, but has just realized that if anything, they've made things worse, and decides to quit. After beating Hal and Sinestro, Flash joins Batman's Insurgency and reveals Superman's plans so that hopefully Earth can be free again, and the suffering end. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Numerous examples here and there, but the most notable is that the earlier fights take place before the "survive punches to space and back" durability pills are introduced. The environmental damage remains the same too, so a fight between Batman and Joker somehow results in a building collapsing. The characters can also take moves they should only be able to take with the enhancement pills. You can shrug it off by saying Batman has armor that can take Joker's bullets, but it's much less believable for it to be able to take one to the head at point blank, and then a Rocket to the head at point-blank and for Joker to survive such close proximity to the explosion. At one point in Superman's story mode chapter, you must fight Doomsday in the Fortress of Solitude. For some reason, there's another Doomsday held captive in the background, though there's been no mention of cloning. You can even throw Doomsday into Doomsday. Both Doomsdays are shown with both Main and Regime costumes. All characters are vulnerable to the Scarecrow transition, including ones who are immune to poisons (Joker) or who the needles shouldn't even scratch (Superman). While the durability pill justifies how "normals" can withstand massive damage and inflict harm on much tougher foes, it does not cover factors the pill can't change, like Superman being injured by bullets. Many of the battle intros (Zod, Black Adam) and super attacks (Superman, Doomsday) make it look like the fight is on Earth, which gets confusing if you're playing on the Watchtower. Furthermore, performing Doomsday's super move on the rooftop areas of Gotham and Metropolis prove that the buildings are, in fact, made of solid dirt. This becomes even funnier in Metropolis if a stage transition is performed after it, as it will send the unfortunate victim falling through the now building-esque building. At one point in the story, Wonder Woman fights her Regime self while the Amazons crowd around to watch. This averts it at first by having Wonder Woman start off in her Sword stance when she usually starts off in her Lasso stance, which makes sense as they had a swordfight in the cutscene prior. Then played straight as the Amazon crowd has seemingly dispersed once the fight properly starts, only returning once the battle ends. You can perform level transitions in the story-mode and end a battle in a different area, which makes no sense as far as the story goes. This is, however, averted with a number of S.T.A.R. Labs missions. Main universe Raven says and does what a good-aligned Raven wouldn't, including Demonic Possession and help from Trigon. Main universe Nightwing also isn't afraid to use any of the gun interactables. There's the way that Superman easily handles any opponent during cinematics, but is just another character during gameplay and depends on player skills for the win. At the end of the last fight of the Classic Battle mode, Regime Superman is always thrown into the Phantom Zone, regardless of the character you are using. If you beat him with Superman, however, the ending sequence (which begins immediately after the aforementioned scene) shows Regime Superman lying on the floor. Wonder Woman's super move involves her enlisting the help of a pair of Amazons to help her beat down her opponent. In Story Mode, Main Wonder Woman only gains the loyalty of the Regime Amazons at the end of her chapter. Some Super Moves like Lex's or Doomsday's show the characters ravaging the Earth, even if it's performed somewhere else, like the Watchtower. | |

Badass Normal: Non-superpowered heroes and villains like Batman, Catwoman, Nightwing, Joker, and Harley Quinn go toe to toe with superhumans like Superman and Solomon Grundy. This is justified in-universe: In the story mode, Regime Superman creates a Kryptonian nanotech drug that gives regular humans thousands of times their normal durability. This is stolen by Batman and his Insurgency, evening the playing field. | |

You Will Not Evade Me | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_649345a2 | comment |
You Will Not Evade Me: Batman uses his Grappling-Hook Pistol to pull himself towards the opponent. The move also has an anti-air version, which slams the opponent into the ground. The latter version is a reference to Scorpion's Bloody Spear special attack, which works similarly and is punctuated by a similar catchphrase ("Get Over Here!", instead of Batman's "Get Down Here!"). The similarity between Batman and Scorpion's fighting styles is lampshaded in their clash quote. Wonder Woman's Lasso Grab pulls the opponent towards her so she can deliver a powerful punch. | |

The Commissioner Gordon | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_69bd76fd | comment |
In "Classic Battles", many of the individual stories get these. A few highlights: Catwoman regrets her association with the Regime, but can't bring herself to apologize to Bruce Wayne for her actions and spends the rest of her life shadowing him as a crime fighter. Green Arrow visits his counterpart's memorial and trains a replacement for him. It's revealed that Batgirl initially took up crimefighting after the murder of her father, Commissioner Gordon, by Superman's Regime. | |

Cynicism Catalyst: The accidental death of Lois Lane and his unborn child at his hands and the destruction of Metropolis —all this orchestrated by the Joker— were the reasons why Superman first became a Well-Intentioned Extremist and Knight Templar and finally turned in a Misanthrope Supreme Straw Nihilist as well as an Evil Overlord and Omnicidal Maniac. | |

Casting Gag | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_6ec4232f | comment |
Casting Gag: George Newbern as Superman. Aside from being a reprising his role from Justice League, which featured the Justice Lordsnote An alternate universe version of the League who had taken a zero tolerance policy on crime following the Flash's death, and Superman vs. the Elite, which deconstructed the idea of Superman undertaking a zero tolerance policy on crime; he's also known for playing Sephiroth, another Fallen Hero who was once considered the greatest to have lived. Troy Baker as Nightwing, having previously played Drake!Robin in Batman: Arkham City. Fred Tatasciore as Solomon Grundy. Aside from reprising his role from Batman: Arkham City, he's also known for playing the Hulk, another green monster with enormous strength, broken speech, and limited intelligence. Kimberly Brooks as Batgirl, having previously played Oracle, the paralyzed Barbara Gordon, in the Batman: Arkham Series. To some level, this is also an Actor Allusion, as Barbara's backstory in the game states that she was originally Oracle before becoming Batgirl. Nolan North as General Zod, having previously played Superman and Superboy in Young Justice (2010). Grey DeLisle as the voice of Green Lantern's ring, having previously played Aya in Green Lantern: The Animated Series. Adam Baldwin as the artificial intelligence for Insurgency!Lex Luthor's armor, having previously played the two Supermen in Superman: Doomsday and the one Superman in DC Universe Online. | |

| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_723be11b | comment |
Villain Has a Point: While Injustice's Superman and his fellows established a dictatorship and went to the deep end, their motivations are very understandable: before their coming to power, criminals were unstoppable, as it was essentially nothing to fear for them: the government did nothing to properly imprison or punish them, and heroes didn't kill in any circumstance. "Look at the Joker. Would he even exist if not for you?" | |

The Dictatorship | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_742088d4 | comment |
The Dictatorship: As the new High Councilor, Regime Superman sets up the One Earth Regime, a planetwide dictatorship which includes members of the former Justice League who now support him, along with villains such as Bane, Sinestro, and Black Adam. Instead of following truth, justice, and the American Way, Regime Superman now believes in lies, injustice, and the authoritarian way, thinking that the traditional model of superheroics is outdated. At first, the Regime is motivated by Utopia Justifies the Means when it comes to ending crime at all costs, but it slowly devolves into a twisted desire to subjugate the Earth as time passes. | |

Revenge Is Not Justice | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_8355aa1b | comment |
Revenge Is Not Justice: After The Joker drugged Superman with Kryptonite-laced fear toxin and tricked him into killing his pregnant wife Lois Lane and detonating a nuclear weapon that destroys Metropolis, the Man of Steel not only kills the clown in revenge, he adopts a Knight Templar Well-Intentioned Extremist stance on crime. He even blames Batman for allowing the clown to run amok and put him in Arkham Asylum, an infamous Cardboard Prison whose criminals don't reform. However, anyone can notice Superman was clearly motivated by revenge and not altruism when it comes to the post-Metropolis crimes he commits, such as brutally crushing any opposition to the One Earth Regime he established, and frequently gets condemned by the Insurgency for breaking the no-kill rule. | |

Power Creep | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_85474aa1 | comment |
Power Creep: In the mobile version, inevitably most of the new cards will be stronger than the old ones. Also, with the release of multiplayer and gear, it is painfully obvious that most, if not all, of the new challenge cards have passives that cater to the now much more effective special attacks. Damage wise, Arkham Origins Batman has a powerfully aggressive passive, and held the 1000 damage for quite some time. Blackest Night Batman matches him (and surpasses him at night), but his health is low and his passive is awkward to use. Then 600 Wonder Woman came along, with an effective 1040 damage and extends her damage/power generation boost to all female members of her team. After that came Arkham Origins Deathstroke, whose passive gives him an effective 1326 damage once fully elited, to say nothing about his unblockable crits. On the team of passives: Batman Beyond is immune to stuns. Man of Steel General Zod takes 20% reduced damage from special attacks. But Krypto Lex Luthor's 30% team max health increase effectively gives a 23% damage reduction for his whole team against all forms of damage. Red Son Green Lantern gives all Red Son teammates immunity to stuns and 20% reduced damage from specials, and additionally immunity to crits. Doomsday was considered strong for has passive that allows him to gain 50% of his health back when he knocks out an opponent (up to 2 times effectively). Raven was released with similar stats, but the ability to swap health twice with her opponent (effectively healing herself by up to slightly over 80%, dealing the same damage, and easier to trigger). | |

Grappling-Hook Pistol | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_85ac41e1 | comment |
Batman uses his Grappling-Hook Pistol to pull himself towards the opponent. The move also has an anti-air version, which slams the opponent into the ground. The latter version is a reference to Scorpion's Bloody Spear special attack, which works similarly and is punctuated by a similar catchphrase ("Get Over Here!", instead of Batman's "Get Down Here!"). The similarity between Batman and Scorpion's fighting styles is lampshaded in their clash quote. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: As soon as he's retrieved the equipment Luthor needs to repair the Kryptonite laser, Deathstroke vanishes from the story and is never seen or mentioned again. He doesn't even make a cameo in the epilogue. His Arcade ending, should it be canon, suggests he has gone into hiding and recruited former members of the Regime to form a league of bounty hunters, who are being hired to aid in the struggles for power as new governments are established around the globe. | |

| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_868409c | comment |
Broken Pedestal: Regime Shazam, still a kid here, looked up to Regime Superman, even going along with his ideas of a better world. However, after witnessing Superman murder Lex Luthor, learning people now hate him and finding out that he plans to wipe out Metropolis and Gotham City before marching over to the brighter universe and taking it over, Shazam calls it quits. Sadly, Regime Superman kills him before he can bail. However, it does inspire another to do so: Regime Flash. | |

Evil Learns of Outside Context: In the Injustice universe, the Joker's actions culminate in Superman becoming a megalomaniacal dictator and forming a Regime to subjugate the Earth. With most of the world's heroes either dead or supporting the new government, Batman has no choice but to recruit heroes from another dimension to put a stop to the mad tyrant. However, this also makes Superman aware of the existence of other realities, inspiring him to extend his influence across the multiverse. | |

Three Round Deathmatch | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_8b6973e6 | comment |
Three Round Deathmatch: A grey life-bar is seen on top of a red one, and once the grey one is depleted, the loser would be knocked really far back and roll a little bit and lie on the floor for a bit, enough time for the victor to deliver a taunt, before getting up and resuming the match in the same position. Again, the victor's life-bar remained the same, meaning it's not uncommon to see one character's life-bar depleted followed immediately by the one who did the depleting become the one that gets depleted. Being on your second life-bar also allowed access to clashes, a combo breaker that can be used to turn the match in your favor, but only once per match per character. Also notably, while the first life-bar depletion has the character lie on the floor motionless for a few seconds, the match point will have the user get back up to strike a defeated pose as if they're even less damaged from the first round end. | |

Flipping the Table | |

Flipping the Table: In the beginning, alternative-reality Superman does this when "interrogating" The Joker, who was sitting behind the table — or at when least complaining to him about how he killed everyone and made Superman kill someone he loved. The table flies pretty far to the side, naturally, but still to a kind of restrained extent considering it's Superman we're talking about. Still, if you thought at this point he was flipping out, you'd be right. | |

Villainous Breakdown | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: Regime Superman really starts to lose it after Batman is rescued by the prime-dimension heroes, the Watchtower is destroyed by Deathstroke and the alternate Lex Luthor betrays him: he kills Luthor on live television and his super-hearing picks up the public's fear and disgust at the act. The next scene has him rather dementedly declaring he will destroy Metropolis and Gotham before invading the prime dimension and making them all pay, in a sharp contrast to his calmer demeanor throughout the story and he heat beams through poor hero worshipping Billy Batson's head just for daring to question him. It goes downhill from there. Regime Superman notably becomes more aggressive when he finds out Insurgency Batman has kryptonite, and presumably thinks Batman was trying to kill him. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: Zatanna; her normal moves have very short range and are painfully slow, but she has some of the most special moves for a single character with many variations for each, including teleports in multiple directions, controllable projectiles, levitation, a move that can reverse the opponent's controls or outright mind control them for a second, and her character trait gives her some great zoning tools in exchange for being unable to jump or duck. On top of that, at least one of her normal combo strings puts the opponent in a standing state. All this makes Zatanna an extremely execution heavy character who takes a lot of practice and finesse to use correctly, otherwise the player will find themselves performing all the wrong moves, but when she is used right, Zatanna is great for creating set ups, getting around defenses and confusing the opponent. | |

Then there is later in the game where he is planning to destroy several cities because they are starting to rebel against his totalitarian rule. He believes they reject his safety and are ungrateful so they don't deserve to live. Supergirl herself calls Regime Superman out on this in Injustice 2: | |

My Death Is Just the Beginning: In an alternate universe of the DCU, although The Joker was killed off early in the game by a grieving Superman for tricking him into killing his wife Lois and nuking Metropolis, the Monster Clown did have the last laugh as his Villainous Legacy of causing Superman's downfall has slowly led to the collapse of everything good in the Injustice-verse, most notably the Justice League falling apart due to the enmity between Batman and Superman. Ironically, this is exactly what Joker wanted, including the part where it got him killed: to prove that others can have "a really bad day" in his twisted Straw Nihilist mindset. | |

It Gets Easier: So much could have been resolved if an alternate version of Superman had just stopped after killing the Joker and explained how he felt after being tricked into killing his wife Lois Lane and nuking Metropolis. Instead, the tie-in comics show that despite his good intentions, he's forced to commit morally gray acts after being confronted by a stream of bad events. Superman did have pangs of regret initially, but eventually, he becomes so completely desensitized that he instead blames others like Batman for his actions. Ironically, the bad deeds Superman did were part of the Joker's long-term plan to see if someone would break and become just as evil as he is from his twisted viewpoint. | |

Posthumous Villain Victory | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_a98aacd1 | comment |
Posthumous Villain Victory: In this universe, as well as its tie-in comic and animated film, the Joker manipulated Superman into accidentally killing Lois, whose death set off a Dead Man's Switch that activates a nuclear weapon that destroys Metropolis, killing millions. When Superman interrupts Batman's interrogation, the Joker admits that he got bored of trying to push Batman over the edge to see if he would break "his one rule," but when Batman wouldn't budge, he moved to another target. Superman responds by thrusting his hand through the Joker's torso, and eventually Superman came to the conclusion that becoming a dictator was the only way to eliminate all crime. | |

No-Sell: Most characters who activate their super move need to make contact before it engages. This gives opponents a chance to attack first and cancel out the entire move. Solomon Grundy's super move cannot be canceled. He gains super armor, and the only way to avoid his attack is to completely stay away from him until the super armor wears off. | |

Take That!: The game can be considered an Alternate Company Equivalent of Marvel vs. Capcom 3. While none is present in the game, the box-art has been seen as one to said series by some fans, with Superman and Batman fighting over a dead Green Arrow's body. Said corpse looks pale and metallic, and while Green Arrow did die before the events of the game, that was the Insurgency Green Arrow, the box-art depicts main-universe Green Arrow, which is significant as he wears his hood over his head, giving the body more than a passing resemblance to Doctor Doom, one of the most commonly played characters in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. | |

Delirious Misidentification | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_b7024e52 | comment |
Delirious Misidentification: The premise for the game is that, in an alternate reality, the Joker gassed Superman was a drug that made him see Lois Lane as Doomsday, whom he then proceeded to beat to death (offscreen). To make matters worse, the atomic bomb that the Joker rigged up was synced to Lois' heart rate. Once she died, the entire city of Metropolis was destroyed. This destroys Superman's morality, turning the entire world into a police state where he believes Utopia Justifies the Means. | |

Demoted to Extra: Brainiac, in a way.

Also, Brainiac-5 appears in Ares' character ending. | |

How Much More Can He Take?: In a DC game made by the makers of Mortal Kombat, this was pretty inevitable. Badass Normal characters like Batman and Green Arrow and Supers alike can be punched through a building, impaled, crushed and hit with all sorts of super moves and still keep going. This is partly explained by all the Badass Normal characters taking a special Kryptonian pill that confers super-resilience. | |

Brutal Bonus Level | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_be3e7584 | comment |
Brutal Bonus Level: In the mobile version, the later matches in Survivor Mode. The difficulty gradually increases to astronomical levels, but the rewards are evenly distributed so there is no advantage to beating the super-hard levels. Legends say there are 21 levels in total (there used to be only 16; players have previously beaten it on previous patches, it is unknown whether anyone has even actually beaten it in its current form). A relatively new player may struggle to get pass match 7 (which disables the use of special 2), and even experienced players tend to struggle past match 10 as heal suppression ramps up and may be stopped dead by match 13 which disables special 1 (you pretty much have to spam special 1 constantly and prevent the opponent from attacking at all). Even skilled veterans may need dozens of attempts to get pass match 15, since by this time your characters are practically One Hit Point Wonders, but would be stopped dead by Random Tag in match 16. | |

Break Them by Talking: The Regime-Universe Joker delivers one of these to Superman in the beginning of the game - comparable to the kind of speeches he's been known to give Batman to goad him into killing him, or the speech the alternate Luthor gave to kick off the Justice Lord Universe in Justice League. Sadly, there's a moment where it looks like it might not work and Superman might not fall after all, but then Joker keeps talking and getting worse by the second. It ends badly for everyone. | |

Let's You and Him Fight: Certain points of the Story Mode have flimsy justifications for certain character matches.note Part of this is the game making sure you get the chance to fight everyone in the cast at least twice, save for Doomsday and Superman. During Green Arrow's chapter, Wonder Woman loses a sword fight against Killer Frost, giving Ollie a reason to fight the latter, and when Barry shows up to the Insurgency base later in the game, he makes no effort to even try to explain that he's in the process of defecting from the Regime before Ollie comes to blows with him. | |

But after he killed his ally Lex Luthor on live TV and heard the growing dissent against his tyrannical rule on Earth, he rants that the people are "ungrateful" for his "protection" and unleashes his forces on Metropolis and Gotham to Scare 'Em Straight. He also justifies killing the Joker for tricking him into killing his wife Lois Lane and nuking Metropolis by claiming it was "done to save millions of lives", but everyone knows he did it in revenge, not altruism.. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Batman says "Get down here!" while using his grapple move against an airborne opponent. Shazam's animation after depleting his opponent's first health bar has him turn into Billy Batson and then back into Shazam. This is almost identical to Shang Tsung's animation for doing the same in Mortal Kombat 9, in which he will turn into his opponent and back into himself. Even the pose is practically the same. S.T.A.R. Labs mission titles include: Lex Luthor Mission 93: "There and Back Again" Green Lantern Mission 115: "None Shall Pass" One of the player icons is a Jokerfied version of the Trollface. A strip club in the Gotham stage is called Sin Kitty, a reference to Frank Miller's Sin City. | |

Supporting Protagonist: The Batmen of both universes. For most of the story, they lead the fight against the Insurgency but are aware they are outmatched by a large margin. The real hero is Superman, who is brought to the Injustice universe during the final chapter to fight his Evil Twin directly. | |

Deus Exit Machina: The regular Superman is busy fighting Doomsday in space when Insurgency Batman pulls the other heroes into his dimension; keeping him out of the way for most of the story. Alternate Batman is also reluctant to bring him there. When he does eventually get pulled into the Injustice Universe, he takes on and defeats Black Adam, Sinestro (effortlessly), Yellow Lantern (without a fight), Regime Aquaman, Doomsday, and his Evil Doppelgänger in rapid succession. | |

Seen It All: Upon being transported to the Regime universe, the Justice League immediately realizes from experience they're in a Bad Future, an altered present or alternate version of Earth and start making plans to sort out which is which before they do anything too important. Upon meeting the evil versions of themselves or their friends, they all make a pretty good guess at what went wrong too from experience, while for their part the Regime versions catch on to what's going on after a second after meeting their alternate versions as well. | |

Lighter and Softer: Compared to the absolute darkness present in the prequel comic, the actual game itself is much less dark. That's not to say that it's all a picnic, though - the alternate universe itself is pretty oppressive and unpleasant, and several characters meet particularly gruesome deaths. In fact, the Injustice franchise is more family-friendly than the Mortal Kombat franchise. | |

Co-Dragons | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_ce767e6f | comment |
Co-Dragons: Regime Wonder Woman and Yellow Lantern split The Dragon role between them for High Councilor Superman, but with an interesting variation: Both double as a Dragon with an Agenda, each with their own ideals and plans separate from Superman. Yellow Lantern is the more morally ambiguous of the two. While serving as a loyal enforcer commanding the other Regime members with the same desire to end the Insurgency, he's shown to be an Anti-Villain legitimately regretting his actions. He believes that he's truly fighting for justice, and is always trying to "do the right thing" no matter what. Which he ultimately does in the end by relinquishing his Yellow Ring. Regime Wonder Woman is by far the more devious one. While serving as his enforcer by leading an entire Amazon Brigade to serve the Regime, she's also a Manipulative Bitch with every intention to replace Lois Lane in Superman's life and become a legitimate Battle Couple with Superman. This ultimately doesn't pan out however, as her good doppelgänger defeats her and turns the Amazons against the Regime. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: If Doomsday is being used on the Fortress of Solitude stage, where he also appears in the background, the appearance of the background Doomsday will change to the attire not being used. If it's a Doomsday Mirror Match and both costumes are in use, then the Doomsday in the background will change to the green spacesuit from his first appearance. If Green Lantern's "Yellow Lantern" costume is used, in addition to the changes seen in story mode, then his super move teleports the opponent to Qward instead of Oa, and his victory pose has him declaring "Yellow is power" in the orbit of Qward instead of joining his fellow Green Lantern Corps members. On Stryker's Island, one stage interaction for Gadget characters has them take a gun from a nearby guard, fire it, and hand it back to them… that is, unless you're Batman or Batgirl, who instead jump off of the guard like they would off of various other objects. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Every main timeline hero delivers these to their counterparts who turned evil in the story. There are also several good ones in clash quotes. Green Lantern disgustedly calls Yellow Lantern a coward for abandoning willpower in favor of fear. Aquaman furiously tells off his counterpart for agreeing to a treaty that capitulates Atlantis to the surface world. Cyborg tells off his Regime counterpart for becoming so bitter and jaded. Wonder Woman delivers a scathing one to her Lady Macbeth counterpart for both bringing out the worst in Regime Superman and forgetting what it means to be Amazon. Good Superman pulls a damn good one on Regime Superman when the former finally confronts the latter in the end. | |

Launcher Move | |

Launcher Move: There are uppercuts like in Mortal Kombat and can be used more effectively. There are also Ground Bounces and Wall Bounces that have a bit of start-up but you can add super Armor to them, as well as certain moves or combos that you can follow up with an air game. Most characters stay on the ground, however, as the combo system is based on juggles, and once a character is in the air, any move has small launcher properties to keep the combo going. | |

Batman Grabs a Gun | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_d563a53c | comment |
Batman Grabs a Gun: The game's story involves an alternate universe where the Justice League, led by Superman, have gone into Knight Templar territory. The trigger was Metropolis being nuked by the Joker, with Lois Lane being among the victims. She was also pregnant with Superman's child at the time. This act led to Superman killing the Joker, setting him on the path to becoming a Fallen Hero. Deliberately invoked by the Joker in-universe: After years of tormenting Batman, Joker realised that Batman would never break, so he decided to see what would happen if a hero less acquainted with him and his methods had one bad day. Unfortunately for the Joker, it worked a little too well. | |

Knowing it's over, Hal takes off the ring and hands it over to Superman. | |

Short-Range Long-Range Weapon | |

Short-Range Long-Range Weapon: One of Joker's finishing moves involves shooting his opponent at point blank range both with a big gun and a bazooka. Any other character with ranged weaponry will inevitably play this straight, as the characters are rarely more than fifteen feet away from each other. Notable examples include Deathstroke and Green Arrow shooting opponents right a few feet away with a sniper rifle and a bow, Lobo firing an absurdly Short-Range Shotgun that has only a little more range than his melee attacks, and Lex Luthor using an orbital laser to blast an enemy right next to him. | |

Continuity Snarl: A retroactive one. In the opening cutscene, Batman and Superman of the “Injustice� universe are already wearing their respective Insurgency/Regime outfits, despite there being quite some time before either faction is formally establishednote Batman’s Insurgency outfit is clearly battle-worn and even outright damaged at some places such as the cheeks, while Superman’s Regime outfit has a very regal design compared to most incarnations of the character.. The sequel establishes that Batman and Superman wore outfits that are very similar to the default/“Main� universe outfits in this game when Joker nuked Metropolis. | |

Start of Darkness | |

Start of Darkness: We learn that the Injustice-verse Superman started his takeover of the world after the Joker tricked him into killing Lois and his unborn child by taking them up to space without a suit because he was under the effect of a Kryptonite-induced fear toxin that made Superman hallucinate that she was Doomsday. Lois' death triggered the hidden Dead Man's Switch in her to set off a nuke and blow up Metropolis. The Joker then successfully goaded Superman into murdering him, something that he was never able to do with Batman. | |

| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_e03070b7 | comment |
Dystopia Justifies the Means: After he was driven to villainy by Joker, Superman is motivated by Utopia Justifies the Means via his hardline stance on crime. But being confronted with a bad stream of events and Batman's insurgency against his tyrannical Regime causes Superman to become desperate at holding on to power at all costs. Superman justifies killing the Joker by saying it was "one death to save millions of lives," but everyone knows it was done in revenge and not altruism. When people witness him kill Luthor on live TV, his selfish side fully manifests when he unleashes his military and Doomsday against the "ungrateful" civilian populace to suppress dissent. | |

Whole-Plot Reference: An alternate universe with Knight Templar versions of DC superheroes deciding to create a new world order, who then get confronted by their main universe counterparts? It wouldn't be a stretch to say the game's plot is an Adaptation Expansion of the "A Better World" two-part episode from Justice League. | |

Ignore the Fanservice: Injustice Superman is not all that impressed by Injustice Wonder Woman showing up in a Stripperiffic dress, as Superman still has lingering feelings for Lois. In fact, his mental focus is entirely elsewhere, with Diana's presence only barely being acknowledged. | |

Fake Difficulty: In the mobile version, it is sometimes hard to block because it requires you to tap and hold two fingers at once; even if you do it at the same time by human standards, sometimes it would still register as a single tap (light attack), especially when you really want to block. To say nothing of the cheating computer. | |

Battle Aura: Superman and Green Lantern gain auras for the duration of their traits, and everyone gets a brief aura burst when they start their super move. Superman, Flash, Doomsday, Ares, Scorpion and Deathstroke have varying shades of orange-red, Batman, Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl, Batgirl, Sinestro, Zatanna, Black Adam and Aquaman have yellow/gold, Nightwing has bluish purple, Cyborg and Killer Frost have blue, Raven, Catwoman and Harley Quinn have varying shades of pinkish-purple, Lex Luthor, the Joker, Bane and Green Lantern have green, Martian Manhunter have white, Solomon Grundy has yellow-green, and Zod and Lobo have red. Curiously, Green Arrow and Shazam have different colored auras for the ports; green on the console ports orange on mobile for the former, the latter has white on console ports, but gold on mobile. Mobile-exclusive characters Darkseid and Static both have gold auras. | |

Pull The Trigger Provocation: In the opening cinematic, an enraged Superman has the Joker in a chokehold, and is wavering over what to do, with Batman trying to calm him down. But the Joker just can't resist taunting him, and when he makes a tasteless joke about Supes killing Lois and their unborn child, it's The Last Straw that drives him to tear the Joker's heart out of his chest. | |

Groin Attack | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Groin Attack: One of the disadvantages of playing one of the larger characters is that your groin is at the height were most fighters have their belly, which is where several attacks, including throws involving Cyborg's electric clamp and Joker's stabbing knife, are targeted. However, none of the character specifically have groin attacks in their arsenal, not used for the intended effect at any rate. In a cinematic, Joker delivers one to the Regime trooper who tried (unsuccessfully) to shoot him to death. Also, he gives one to a not-as-stealthy-as-he-thought Batman. Harley Quinn's Mallet Bomb: she pummels her opponent with a mallet knocking him/her back before she runs and slides between their legs, placing an exploding pie underneath the opponent, which explodes and sends them flying. | |

Popularity Power | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_ee30ce4b | comment |
Popularity Power: The character battle tournament done as a way of marketing had this deciding the winner of each match. This is subverted due to Power Creep in the mobile version. The regular version of characters tends to be weaker as they are released earlier, compared to lesser known versions of them. Wonder Woman is particularly bad, being the only one in the Trinity to be a silver card, although she is still one of the strongest silver cards, while 600 Wonder Woman is a very powerful team boosting gold card especially with more strong female cards being released (Zatanna, Regime Killer Frost, Raven). Superman on the other hand, is a "trash tier" gold card, while Red Son Superman (as well as Red Son Wonder Woman) is a consistently strong Red Son pick. The regular Hal Jordan and The Flash are bronze cards, Regime Flash and Regime GL are silver cards, while Elseworld Flash and John Stewart are (fairly unused, but still) gold cards. Batman is an exception and is likely the only regular card to be gold and a reasonably strong pick, arguably better than the newer and more obscure Red Son Batman, but even then he's a bit upstaged by Animated Harley Quinn in that regard. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: For the "Main" Universe. Regime Superman's plan to invade their Universe is thwarted before it even begins, The Joker's super strength pills are implied to wear off shortly after the ending and everybody lives. For the "Injustice" 'verse, it's revealed in Batman's Classic Battles ending that Lex Luthor left his fortune to Bruce Wayne for the rebuilding of Gotham and Metropolis. The populace rallied behind him as the leader of the Insurrection, but, with no secret identity, Wayne could not return to crime-fighting. Instead, he became the leader of a successful mass movement dedicated to fighting crime in the name of Batman. | |

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good | |
| Injustice: Gods Among Us (Video Game) / int_f8e010ce | comment |
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: After the Joker drove him to pull a Face–Heel Turn, Regime Superman and his allies adopt a hardline policy on crime and take a jaded view on traditional superheroics, but they're also ignorant to realize that it has warped them into the villains they once opposed. The Flash eventually realized just how corrupt Superman has become and defects to Batman's side after witnessing the fallen Man of Steel kill Shazam in cold blood. When others point out that he is scaring people, Superman justifies himself by saying that the bad guys should be scared, not realizing that they meant people in general. There are many instances where Superman wonders if he's going over the edge, but he then immediately starts rationalizing his new behavior as Batman's fault. After people witnessed him kill Luthor, Superman rants about how "ungrateful" the people are for his rule, completely ignorant of the costs of it. | |

Artistic License – Physics: There is no way we should be able to see the water splashing during the Flash's Supermove as he runs across it. The clip lasts ten seconds and consists of the Flash encircling the Earth, which has a circumference of 40,075 kilometres. That distance across that time frame would be 14,427,000 kilometres per hour. However, the opponent barely moves between when the Flash begins running and when he returns, so he was moving even faster than that. | |

Accidental Murder: In the backstory, an encounter between the emerging Regime and Insurgency groups at Arkham Asylum had Damian Wayne angrily throw an escrima stick that ricocheted and hit Nightwing's exposed head. Nightwing collapsed, causing him to break his neck on the rubble. Damian attempted to say this was a mistake, but Batman would have none of it as he carried Dick's body away. This would lead to Damian siding with Superman. | |
