Ed Boon posted a Tweet the other day divulging an interesting bit of information about the Mortal Kombat 9 DLC characters. It appears that between Kenshi, Rain, Skarlet and Freddy Krueger, Freddy was the top selling and most downloaded of the bunch.
Freddy Ended up being the best selling of all the DLC characters in MK9... Hmm? ....go figure!
This comes as a surprise as many players felt the decision to make Freddy Krueger a playable character in MK9 was a bit out of left field.
This begs the question: Will NeatherRealm Studios include another obscure character as DLC in their latest fighter, Injustice: Gods Among Us, and will it have similar results?
If you could choose a character that isn't DC Comics related to include in Injustice as DLC, who would it be?

Updated again: The Injustice: Gods Among Us Facebook page has revealed The Joker's Red Hood costume as the third and final outfit in the Killing Joke skin pack.
The Injustice: Gods Among Us Facebook page uploaded an image for the second costume in the Killing Joke skin pack. This one is The Joker's classic green and purple Final Confrontation suit.
One more costume for The Joker remains in the Killing Joke skin pack and will be revealed soon.
The official Injustice: Gods Among Us Facebook page brings us a closer look at The Joker's Tourist alternate costume that was first seen in the Batgirl reveal trailer. This costume is based off of the outfit worn by The Joker in the graphic novel, Batman: Killing Joke.
The Injustice Facebook stated that this is just the first costume in the Killing Joke pack and two more are going to be revealed soon. Additionally, an entirely new "surprise" pack containing three brand new costumes will is also be shown next week.

NeatherRealm Studios' own Ed Boon posted a quick statement on Twitter earlier today regarding the next Injustice: Gods Among Us DLC character, Batgirl. Boon mentions that she will be available for download next Tuesday.
Rumor has it that Batgirl will be available to download for INJUSTICE next Tuesday. Just sayin' ....
While he does preface the Tweet with "rumor has it", the details are a bit too specific for it to be just that. This is also far from Mr. Boon's usual style of dropping hints and teasers, so this is likely accurate information.
All players looking to try out Batgirl will be able to download her on Tuesday, May 21. Her pricing will be similar to Lobo's and she will cost 400 Microsoft Points over on Xbox 360 and $5.00 USD on PlayStation 3.
Additionally, we may be seeing a fix for the rage quitting issue many players have been experiencing as of late. When asked about this issue a couple of days ago, Hector Sanchez briefly hinted that a fix may be included with the Batgirl update.

More top Mortal Kombat 9 players continue to share their thoughts on who they feel are currently the best characters in Injustice: Gods Among Us. Another one of the Empire Arcadia boys, CD Jr., posted a couple of Tweets recently that divulge his picks for top 5.
Below are CD Jr.'s top 5 character choices.
My current top 5 for Injustice right now. Cyborg, Superman, Aquaman, Doomsday, Green Lantern.
CD Jr. posted another Tweet stating that Black Adam isn't nearly as good as many players have been saying he is.
Black Adam is not top 5 lol. Please just go to the lab and learn how to fight him. He is unsafe on a lot of things.
We see that CD Jr.'s top 5 isn't too far off from the top characters chosen in EMP|Tom Brady and EMP|REO's tier list. Cyborg, Superman and Aquaman show up as top tier in both lists with Batman, Black Adam, Deathstroke, Doomsday and Green Lantern not being too far behind.
Now that three excellent MK9 players have given us their opinions on who the best are in Injustice, what do you think? Do you feel these lists are accurate?
Arturo "TS|Sabin" Sanchez is back again today with some more great Injustice: Gods Among Us footage. Up first we have an online Endless Battle featuring Jailhouse, EMP|Maxter and Sabin.
After the jump you can check out some concept matches between Alioune Sensei's Cyborg vs. EMP|DragonGod's Black Adam.

According to the financial services research firm Cowen & Company, Injustice: Gods Among Us received the most sales over any other title for the month of April in the U.S. With other new releases such as Dead Island: Riptide, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge being released in the same month, Injustice was the only game to sell over 250,000 copies.
For the month of April, NetherRealm Studios' DC fighter sold roughly 424,000 units in the United States. Popularity for the game continues to grow since its April 16 release and it has been well received here in the fighting game community.
With three DLC characters still on their way, a multitude of new alternate costumes and a Japanese release of the game coming June 6 of this year, it seems the future may be bright for Injustice: Gods Among Us.

A user over on the Test Your Might forum by the name of m2dave, recently spoke with Empire Arcadia's own Tom Brady and REO to discuss Injustice: Gods Among Us tier lists. Both top level players were asked to generate a tier list, keeping in mind the game has only been out for roughly a month, and this is what they came up with.
Cyborg is listed as number 1 due to his block stun infinite combo. Basically, if Cyborg shoots instant air fireballs repeatedly, it will keep the opponent in block stun forever. It is said that this block stun infinite works on the majority of the cast.
The characters are listed in alphabetical order under their respective tiers. Hit the jump to see the full list.
S+:
Cyborg (block infinite combo)
S:
Aquaman, Batman, Black Adam, Deathstroke, Superman

Since the game's release, many Injustice: Gods Among Us players have been discussing an issue with online matches. It seems that when in online ranked and player matches, if one player rage quits (disconnects early), both will be given losses to their record.
A Twitter user brought this issue up to NeatherRealm Studios' Hector Sanchez, stating that they hope to see the rage quitting fixed soon. Though Hector's response was laconic, it heavily implies that the issue will be addressed when Batgirl drops, considering general tweaks are also made with each DLC character update.
Check out the Tweet from Hector, below.
VaanRYou: Hope the ragequitting issue is fixed soon
Hector Sanchez: Batgirl
It is currently unknown when exactly Batgirl will be officially released but with her reveal trailer already on the web, we'll probably see her playable fairly soon.
