Why is Raven on there but not Shazam or Hawkgirl? Weird...

How many characters are they gonna announce? It feels like they've announced a new character everyday for like 2 months (-_-")

Captain Marvel/Shazam, Hawkgirl, & Apocalypse are missing from the build. Hence, there's no more heroes (see what I did there?) for Injustice, and 3 more villains on the way.....unless I missed something.

Glad to know about BADam.
Can't wait to see if we get the Main Man/Last Czarnian out of the box, or whether he will be DLC.
I hope he gets to smoke a cigar and shows his bike.

I noticed that also. Maybe they found major bugs on both of them and decided to remove them from that demo so they could fix them?

There's 12 on each side. 1 hero spot and 2 villian spots left. My guess.... Lobo, Black Adam (obvious), and.... Dr Fate I hope

Shazam and Hawkgirl would occupy the 2 free slots for heroes and Sinestro and Doomsday would occupy 2 of the 4 free slots for villains. This means there is a pretty big chance of us getting Ares and Lobo

And @7, both Captain Marvel/Shazam and Hawkgirl are missing. No More Heroes.

Lobo isn't very likely at this point. Heck, Captain Cold is more likely than Lobo (C.C. was actually featured in the comic).

It's worth noting that Raven is listed on the side with the heroes. There's been a lot of conflicting elements to her that make it hard to tell whether or not she will be under the influence of Trigon in this game.

@15: Yes, i was just saying that because Black Adam wasn't officially announced. We already know that Black Adam is in the game and Ares too. So there is only one surprise here... and i'm betting on Captain Cold, so it could be: Superman vs Doomsday; Batman vs Bane; Wonder Woman vs Ares; Flash vs Captain Cold; Shazam vs Black Adam; Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) vs Sinestro.

NRS already confirmed there is going to be more than 24 characters so other than showing a portrait for Black Adam (thus confirming the bald more Egyptian look is one of his alternate skins) this placeholder character select screen means squat... Especially with the exclusion of a few characters already revealed and the odd ordering of characters.

Sorry but no Lobo until DLC. Martian Manhunter is going to be revealed soon I am sure of it. I also believe that Captain Cold and Starfire will be revealed also.

Aquaman, Shazam, Sinestro, Hawkgirl, Doomsday, Raven, Black Adam and Ares were all rumored months ago and so far it's been correct so I really haven't been surprised with any of these reveals so far. Next is Ares and then the real fun comes when the mystery ones get revealed. So much hype.

Let's not forget about the fact that theres one more female character too, if you go by the icon from the achievements list. I've still have yet to find anyone to decipher who she is, but she doesn't look like Black Canary, or she could be...or she could be a female villain.

This whole build is out of whack. I hope it's more than 24 characters as well (not including DLC)

@Boogie

If that's the case, that means this is an old Character select screen. Based on the design there would be three more slots for the villains and heroes equal 6 more characters, could 1 more hero unlockable with 1 villain unlockable and 4 DLC which will total 30?

@30
She has to be in because we need a character in the same vain as the ninja chicks from MK9 with large breasts and a revealing costume. They gotsta. Plus her pink attire, gold skin, green eyes and long amber hair would add more color variety to the game and her moveset would be awesome, there needs to be more magic/fireball characters.

@32
You again.. Man.. like I said before Hector Sanchez is on the record for saying they had revealed less than half of the roster when they had only announced 12 characters. Its elementary math bro.

It has to be Killer frost shes that person on the achievement list and remember in the first ever injustice trailers Flash is attacked by an icicle, but why would they put her in to oppose to New 52 Captain Cold and I know in the comic they show Captain Cold but that the one with no ice powers just uses an ice gun.

AngrySteve said on March 14, 2013 at 5:08 p.m.

That's Black Adam alright. I can see where people would think it's Sinestro but the his eyebrow line is way more defined. Sinestro also has a bigger head in general. Also the way the yellow on the torso reaches the belt is done up like a lightning bolt. Hence that is Black Adam ladies and gentleman.

GenSoHotSpicy said on March 14, 2013 at 5:18 p.m.

@46
Hmm.. I just can't see Ares in that role.

If Ares and Killer Frost make up the remaining 2 characters of a 24 character roster I would be overall pleased with the roster.

The exclusion of MMH makes no sense because he has the capability of being an extremely integral character to this story and his appearance and moveset would be unique especially if he can shapeshift. Also, with the Justice League of America being brought back in the New 52 you think they'd plug MMH in this game to make more hype for JLA after all he is there leader.

Starfire because of the popularity of Teen Titans and Red Hood & the Outlaws would be good marketing wise too.. There is a lack of sexual characters in thus game. Harley and Celina look good but Raven, Hawkgirl and WW not so much. Starfire is a sexy sleazeball of a character ("ey, those white boys aee savages) but she can destroy you.

Oh yeah, I think its way more likely that he's playable. I'm just saying that if you take every single thing that someone associated with the game has ever offhandedly said and assume there are at least 25 characters, it would make more sense for there to be an Ares final boss and then like Mirror Master or something than for there to be another 2 or 4 characters.

You should take your own advice. Harley has a mask, that character doesn't. Also, the coloring is all wrong. And the hair. Basically the only thing they have in common is nothing at all.

The character in the middle of the top row of right side roster is Harley obviously. Look at both pictures. Plus she is next to the Joker.

So will it be Black Adam, Ares or char #24 going to be revealed on the 19th of March in France?

If there's only two more characters to be revealed then judging by the hints it's Ares and Killer Frost(if that lady is indeed her).

I can see them holding back characters people have been going crazy over such as Martian Manhunter and Lobo. It's actually a smart business move. If they were to put all the fan favorites in the initial roster and only put the more obscure characters as DLC, the average non comic reader wouldn't buy them.

EvilRick said on March 14, 2013 at 6:07 p.m.

OK, the two hero slots left are Shazam & Hawkgirl, from the 4 villains slots two are for Sinestro and Doomsday which leave two more characters to be revealed.

Since all the other leaked characters turned out to be true, then we can easely assume one of the tow remaining slots is for Ares, as he wa shinted as well alongside Sinestro, Doomsday, Ravne & Black Adam.

Thne, juding by the heavely hinted ice themed character that appeared fighting Flash on the very first trailer and since an extra female villainwith white hair was spotted on the achievements I'd say that the remaining slot is Killer Frost.

There fore, the characters missing on that select screen are Shazam, Hawkgirl, Sinestro, Doomsday, Ares & Killer Frost.

Sorry bro, my bad for being a jerk. But yeah you're right when it comes to the achievement picture.. Its either Killer Frost or Circe wearing that blue/purple hood. Most likely KF since WW has Ares as her nemesis. So it's looking more and more like Killer Frost instead of Captain Cold to round out the roster. I know of every character on this roster from the comics except for KF... Is she a Flash villain?

#63
Torrie_De_Goddess's avatar
Torrie_De_Goddess said on March 14, 2013 at 7:15 p.m.

5 slots:

Hawkgirl
Shazam
Doomsday
Killer Frost (remember, in the reveal trailer it was WW vs Harley so the one facing Flash isn't necessarily his old-school antagonist; not to forget that achievement icon showing another yet to be revealed female villain)
Ares
And ??????

The end boss better be Braniac or Anti-Monitor.

Obvius is Black Adam, no Sinestro, the long lightning and the yellow circle on waist, Sinestro have purple skin,shoulder clothes, Black Adam comes with the familiar costume.
The last chars probably are Ares and Killer Frost.
Its so hard accept but this select screen it seems the final product,dlc where in?
I believe Robin and Martian,they appeared in the special edition box, yours symbols.

The character select screen is not updated, i believe theres more slots for chars.

Raven is on the wrong side, she should be on the villain side since shes corrupted.

I believe Boon is trolling us on Martian Manhunter, cuz if he doesnt have a spot on the main rooster and its moved to DLC, NRS are not professional people, cuz MM is a very important DC character. And dont tell me hes moved to DLC for bring more money cuz thats bulls*it, Martian Manhunter is a member of Justice League and deserves to be on the main rooster, along with Hal, WW, Bats, Flash, Hawk and Superman.
