Well, not so much "stumbles" as is lead to the character through carefully-orchestrated marketing via late night television.

Still, Zod's coming to "Injustice!"

scropion-injustice

The vengeful ninja from hell is coming to the DC Comics fighting game with a new look courtesy of the comic company's Co-Publisher, Jim Lee.

Lee was instrumental in the armor-heavy redesigns of the updated DC universe, and he's brought the same aesthetic to the "Mortal Kombat" anti-hero. If you're familiar with his traditional design, all of the cloth elements have been replaced with segmented armor pieces--a look I can take or leave at this point, honestly.

After the jump, listen to Lee and Netherrealms Creative Director Ed Boon talk about the new look and origins of Scorpion in the "Injustice."

batgirl-injustice-trailer

So it's a little weird that Netherrealm is calling out Batgirl's post-"Killing Joke" history in this trailer, announcing the character's inclusion in "Injustice: Gods Among Us" as DLC. I mean, I guess it gives her a clear rivalry with the Joker (who's wearing his "crippling Barbara Gordon" outfit in the video) but it seems like a lot of extraneous backstory to explain away a lot of stuff that was kind of weird in DC's New 52 (which restored the long-disabled Gordon/Batgirl's ability to walk and waved away her Oracle persona).

Anyway, she's officially official, joining Lobo as a separate 400 MS Point/$4.99 download for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

You can check out the trailer after the jump.

We've known for some time that Nintendo had plans to release "Year of Luigi" themed DLC for "New Super Mario Bros. U," but they just recently revealed some interesting new details. Most importantly, it appears that Luigi's taller stature has earned him the ability to jump higher than his brother, Mario.
