IGN is back with another Rewind Theater, this time they are focusing on the Doomsday release trailer for Injustice: Gods Among Us. They cover a lot of the background comic related stuff while also covering the history of Doomsday and what's going on in Metropolis.

Note this contains spoilers to the comic's story.

Wow. The attention to detail on story and effort for how all of these characters mash together cannot be denied.

A+ for that Nether Realm.

The stages in this game look fantastic. Lots of cameos and hidden easter eggs for those that read know some comic lore.

I'm liking the game look more so now than I did. I just think Doomsday's movement looks rather.... meh.

I think after the attention to detail of Tekken's character movement, going back to 2d will take some getting used to. I just feel that Doomsday doesn't attack he just kinda, lunges his body towards his opponent.

Doomsdays gotta be my least favourite character so far. He looks really boring. He has one of the best looking super moves though. Games looking great. Can't wait.

If the attention to detail makes you want to read the comics, then it would be a success for them.

MASSIVE INJUSTICE COMIC SPOILER BELOW

**************************************

**************************************
You were warned.

For anyone wondering after watching this video, Greg ( I think that's his name?) doesn't know what he's talking about. Metropolis is destroyed in Issue 3 of the comic (We're on 9 at this point). Joker had a nuke in the city triggered to explode at the stopping of Lois Lane's heartbeat, then gassed Superman with something that made him halucinate. He saw Lois as Doomsday. Her death wasn't as messy as it could have been.

It's also referenced directly in issue 4 as a crucial plot element as Supes kneels in the broken, nuked wreckage of Metropolis with Lois in his arms. Speaking to joker,"You took his love, his unborn child, and his city from him" says Batman in captions.

I'm honestly not sure how you read these comics and miss that. Reading comprehension FTW.

Superman was not caught in the blast. He was in outer-space killing the hell out of a pregnant Lois Lane. This comic is dark, man. If you're not reading it, you probably should be.
