When I was about to read the comics and eventually watch the story of the game, I was worried that Injustice would tarnish my view of Superman. But instead, like you said, it just made me appreciate him even more.
And the best one. *REGIME SUPERMAN:* He stole her from me--! *SUPERMAN:* And _you_ stole this planet's freedom! ... It's time to give it back. The moment Supes said that, I was like, "oh, it's ON!"
Superman: This has been a weird day for me, I froze a tsunami, beat up Black Adam who was trying to be Lex Luthor, fought Doomsday while Doomsday watched, and beat the crap out of myself. Lois will never believe me.
even the main superman notices that he could be like his fallen counterpart. the true superman is an alien who was raised by human parents, learning that despite their flaws, they're worth saving, like the true Wonder Woman would understand that as well once she first saw man's world unlike her bitchy counterpart
Injustice Superman " I saved this world" The REAL Superman " Now I'll save it from you." Best quotes of the game coming in at the end of their fight was so epic and very fitting
I love how this chapter starts. Batman briefs Superman about this worlds evil version of him and what’s going on off screen. And after that Superman wants to get straight to work. “Innocent people are dying”. He wants to protect the people first. That’s his main goal. It gives us a huge amount of appreciation for the Superman we all know and love.
And the fact that his main goal for every fight is to "prevent more casualties". You can tell that after he said that, Insurgency Batman reluctantly knew that the good Superman can actually be trusted.
It's so nice to see the real Superman kick this facist pretender's ass to a pulp. While it's rather disheartening for a game to do the evil Supes gimmick, the fact they use the real one to defeat him makes it better.
Um they were both real lol just from different dimensions where life was drastically different for them ergo making the superman in the other dimension bad. And it's hardly gimmick if shows/ cartoons and comics do it all the time. I thought the game and story line was great.
The bad Superman still doesn't see that Joker's pulling his strings beyond the grave. As long as he's an asshole, Joker will always be laughing from his clown chair in Hell.
My favorites are Superman, Aquaman and Green lantern Green lantern is definitely the most interesting because he mentions the guardians to his evil doppelgänger and replies, “yeah I’m sure they’re very proud of you” What’s interesting is the guardians in GL’s perspective as pains in the ass but, he would still respect them more than the yellow lanterns
Must have been pretty happy and sad for Injustice Batman having a Superman on his team again. What his Superman was like when he was still a true hero, and his best friend.
Yeah it’s like when your first best friend that you thought wouldn’t do anything bad to you or everyone, but then saw there girlfriend/wife dies so they wanted to rule the world and kill some of your friends (which is f#ck up by the way) and killed a kid which was a friend or your little brother/sister (which is even mooore f#cked up) so to end it you have to stop it your self. Sorry if I went over bored there but it was nice to see the injustice Batman to see the prime Superman (I think I got that right please correct me) of a memory of what the injustice Superman was like in the past.
this is the superman i love, the one where he hasn't gone crazy and controlled the world, the superman i know fought for truth and justice and never went mad with power, that's the true superman!
Real Superman: "Lois's death doesn't justify--" Regime Superman: "He stole her from me!" Real Superman: "And you've stolen this world's freedom. Now it's time to give it back!" Me: yes Superman!!! Beat his a**!!!
I love how after Superman says that last line ("It's time to give it back!"), he just shakes his head and glares like, "You, my friend, are gonna _get_ it." You can tell he's not gonna put up with his Regime self's self-righteous hogwash.
Seeing injustice Superman just makes me love the real justice Superman even more. Moral, compassionate, restraint with a sound heart fighting for truth and justice the right way. *That’s Superman*
You are certainly right about that. I'm more of a Batman fan, but even I was all "GO TEAM SUPERMAN!" the very moment the True Superman was pulled into the Injustice Earth, and fought his counterpart.

Superman obviously didn't need to hear the whole story. Bruce probably just said, "evil you is destroying cities. We need your help." And Clark was just like, "alright let's fix this."
I think one of the main things that makes Superman so special and loved is the fact that despite all that power he still chooses to use it responsibly and for the betterment of others first. No story shows that restraint better than Injustice. This world’s Superman was exactly like the Superman we see and play as in this last chapter. It’s only when he lost everything again that he decided that enough was enough. Instead of restraining himself he decided to finally use it to instil peace through tyranny. Literally forcing people to get along and play nice less they suffer his wrath. Thing is he went way to far with his “protection” to the point of weaponising and employing villains into his regime and even killing children for stepping out of line. He’s a monster that’s so focused on power and control he’s forgotten the very reason he wanted it to begin with and in doing so became a worse monster than the ones he thought he was preventing. To have the JL Supes show up as the last character in the campaign to play as is nothing short of genius and to have the first thing to come out of his mouth be actual concern for the innocent people in the crossfire is just the cherry on top. The big part of this though is the Insurgency Batman just watching and hearing Superman talk like how he used to. Concerned for the safety of people and strategising about how to handle the battle with the least amount of innocent casualties possible. It’s a callback to a time this Bruce misses, a time he wishes to go back to and despite the quick and stoic way he says it… you can tell he genuinely means it when he welcomes Superman back in a thematic sense. Superman is a god who sees himself as a man. A strong man who lives in a fragile world. He could easily use his abilities to become just as much of a monster as the likes of Darkseid or Lex Luthor. Two of the most powerful and dangerous villains driven by their lust for power and conquest. Superman is more close to becoming these people than he thinks and yet despite that he chooses that he won’t become them and fights everyday to ensure that doesn’t happen. Superman is loved not because of his laser eyes or his flying. He isn’t cherished because bullets can’t hurt him or because he can breathe in space. He’s loved because behind all that is a genuinely good man who’s willing to risk his life fighting creatures and people even more powerful than him to ensure that those lesser off don’t have to fight. Clark Kent is capable of so much destruction and conquest and yet he doesn’t see that. He only sees a way to help make people’s lives a little more better off and that is one of the most admirable qualities I have ever seen in a character. It’s why I love him… Too bad folks like Zack Snyder only see Superman for the spectacle instead of the heart and it’s a shame that the more darker version of Superman is becoming more of a trend nowadays… still I hold out hope that folks will still love Superman for the reason I’ve displayed. Despite the godlike abilities at his disposal there’s a reason he calls himself Super”man”. Hope there’s more variations of him in the future that remember that aspect of him… that aren’t Multiverses…
Couldn’t have said it better myself! Superman always has the best of intentions, he could use his power for evil, but instead he uses them to help mankind. He doesn’t do it for the glory or the fame, he does it because not only is it the right thing to do, Superman sees potential in us, he knows that we as people have the ability do great things and that with his help it’ll only be easier for us and him, being a fellow man in his own right, to make the world a better place.
I got an answer for Zach Snyder universe: the reverse Flash is responsible for that verse himself. If Warner Bros let Snyder’s verse plans to be put effect we would’ve seen the Flash reverse the timeline so we able to see these characters being the people we know and love. The Reverse Flash is that petty to screw up Barry’s life from the get go. Hence why Superman are willing to kill; Batman uses guns; Wonder Woman’s death; etc. The Flash movie would explain everything wrong with Snyder’s universe and use it to reboot the DCU but Warner Bros fired him while grieving for his daughter. So he released a 3-4 hour long movie as a love letter to fans ( Zach Snyder’s: Justice League ). And because of Warner Bros decisions everything fall apart in this DCU and left a sour taste for the fandom.
@@JDog2656meh it had some aspects I liked, some I dislike but overall it and in edition Zack Snyder doesn’t understand or care about what makes Superman… well Superman. They have the cape, they have the suit and they have the cool powers but it lacks the colour and charm that Superman is idealised for. Both figuratively and literally. His suit is darkened and drained of the bright blue, yellow and red, his father would rather he let a school bus full of kids and himself die before revealing that his son is an alien (something that no other iteration of Clark’s parents would ever… *ever* say or do) and in the end you’re left with this edgy husk of what was once the paragon of virtue and good. Zack Snyder’s Superman is not superman. He’s an edgy teenagers oc wearing the costume of Superman. If you’re into it that’s fine but I’m not because I believe it’s a disgrace and disservice to a character that is loved because of his optimistic charm. Zack is an aesthetic person, he only sees spectacle without the context and story. Again not a bad thing on its own but with someone like Superman… I don’t wanna repeat myself.
"The people need to know they're in control not us.." -Batman It's a quote that superheroes acknowledge they are there for protection but, the citizens are in control of their own destiny... Really nice quote
Injustice Batman refusing the president’s offer in the government is good too. Injustice Batman knew that being in the government is the last thing he wants, because he’ll wound up corrupt as Regime Superman. That is the one thing Injustice Batman doesn’t want.
“Disobedient children will be punished.” “*Children?!*” I love these quotes, because it defines the real Superman. Superman does not see the people as less than him. He wants to protect people because it’s the right thing to do.
Superman sees himself as a human cause he was raised among them, he wants to protect people cause he has power to do so for good and knows it’s want his parents both sets of then wants him to do.
This was the most cathartic moment in the story All those chapters showcasing how evil the Injustice Superman is served to make us appreciate the real Superman
Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, the fake Nightwing, Black Adam, Cyborg. They fell from grace because of their arrogance, overconfidence, and delusions of grandeur.
@@thenightwatcher1735 well I just hope any of these 2 will play superman in the animated movie of the crossover of justice league teamup with mighty morphin power rangers
@@greenlightcomics7602 joker and harleys actors were fine. Luthor’s look in this game wouldn’t work because he looks too young. Hawkgirl is too minor in this story
@@greenlightcomics7602 harley's close enough since arleen sorkin retired, and DCAU flash was wally as opposed to barry... so they can at least get a pass imho
So Superman fought and defeated back-to-back Black Adam, Sinestro, Aquaman, Doomsday, after this in his fatigue state he fought his alternate counterpart who was fresh with full power and still kicked his Ass..... Injustice Superman is Weak Seriously
He got used to winning instantly,whereas our superman still practiced restraint prior to arriving,thus having to rely more on skill than just instantly killing everyone.Ultimately being better off when he cut loose.Plus injustice superman seems to not sunbathe as much anymore,instead preferring to stay in his fortress and mope.
He hadn’t really had a real challenge since he came into power. All of earth’s major villains are either imprison, executed, in hiding, or work for him.
I don't know how the fight really went in lore wise but it could go to the comics version, meaning Superman was just holding back hard because he probably knows all of their weaknesses and it wasn't hard to deal with them until he started fighting Doomsday. But the fact he yeeted Doomsday's ass to the next dimension and was already quite tired at his current state but managed rekt his evil self's ass just means shows that OG Superman had more experience and knows how to counter himself better than Batman The Goat.
The saddest implication of the final fight here is: if Superman goes haywire, nobody can stop the consequent destruction of the Earth (just like a big freaking volcano covering the entire atmosphere!) except another Superman JL
In the comics, Superman was almost killed multiple times; what saved his ass were either someone else's meddling (Sinestro, Raven) or Wonder Woman being a crazy bitch.
After reading the comics (Injustice Year One to Injustice Year Five), I can't put into words just how _satisfying_ it is to watch the ending. Part of what makes this ending so great is that Injustice Superman is defeated by the _real_ Superman. All in all, it's been a great journey.
When the Batman/Superman were planning a strategy in the beginning of the video the other Batman was thinking I miss my own friend in Superman without him there will always be a gape that can't be filled
I also read the injustice comics to get more into my favorite game. Seeing superman slowly become evil was a very traumatizing experience. When he resulted to torturing batman to get what he wanted is when he finally realized he was bad than he got his ass whooped by Alfred
That look on alternate Batman's face when he hears Superman talk. It's like him feeling hope for the first time in years. "It's good to have you back."
“There’s been enough killing” I never quite liked the way he said this, like a Parent scolding, in the Spanish translation they made him say something that sounded much more powerful that translates to. “You’ll have to kill me” “No…Not even you… Too many have died already..” He said in a way that sounded hurt yet angry. It truly showed his broken spirit.
Its funny how the comics showed how long the war was since Superman become corrupted, the REAL superman appears, stop the regime like a school fight, defeat Black Adam, Aquaman m, Doomsday and himself in half and hour like was a typical tuesday
That’s MY Superman. The one who fights for truth and justice and looks out for others. He is the MPHOAT. Limitlessly powerful. Infinitely powerful. His greatest powers is his compassion,understanding, calmness and kindness and humility to others. Nothing but love and respect for MY GOAT Superman. The perfect Hero. The greatest hero of all time.
Is no one going to talk about the dude chillin' underneath the sign on the right side when Black Adam was throwing cars at Superman? He doesn't care about the explosions
I didnt realize how long that throwing car mini game was... And goddamn that argument between the Supermen was awesome. You can feel the pain of Evil Supermans loss but you can also see how Good Superman is seeing this world and how evil superman turned it. This may have been one of the first times a story in a game made me feel anger for what a character has done...Early on in the story I felt the anger and the absolute want for revenge to joker... but as the story goes on I started feeling like okay this is a bit much then at the end OUR Superman the one that we love solidified what it is that we love about him. For what little they had to give us in A VIDEO GAME STORY mind you, this was so well done.
I absolutely love seeing the contrast between good superman and evil superman. I imagine for good superman it was like looking in a mirror of the monster he could be
That conversation between the two Supermen always gives me the chills. George Newbern did an excellent job voicing them subtly differently so you could tell them apart by voice alone. It truly represents both the best and the worst Superman can be.
Good Superman” we’re not gods ,we don’t decide who lives and who dies” well said. The Right/Power deciding who lives and who dies( is a Big responsibility and NOT to be taken lightly) .. but the way the Evil superman uses it, like it’s a child’s toy
0:04 Superman: We need to get started. Innocent people are dying. Batman: We’ll take the others, so you can focus on their Superman. Superman: We’ll do it together. It’ll prevent more casualties, then Superman. Doomsday’s gonna be tricky. Batman: Collateral damage. Superman: I’ll have to force that fight elsewhere. Anything else? Injustice Batman: I realize this isn’t entirely accurate, but it’s good to have you back.
I will always love how our Superman acknowledges “that could’ve been me too” That he knows that that really could’ve been him I’d put in the sand situation. It said Llg about him that he can admit that but firmly say “just because I see why you took the means to get here doesn’t mean the ends are justified”
It shows that Superman always considers the future. That he's not shortsighted to simply dismiss it and say that would never be him. Once again enunciating how grateful we should be for the original.
Prime Superman sees the big picture just like every version of Batman. He knows that if he kills the Joker just like when his Injustice counterpart rightly did, he can't stop until it's become a slippery slope to become the monster he could become.
If Black Adam won: The Regime is eternal like my home. If Aquaman won: Now you will leave! If Doomsday won: Doomsday has arrived. If Injustice Superman won: Lois. Wait for me.
I truly hope that Tim Daly will voice the noble Superman and faces the Injustice Superman George Newbern. This will be the first time that the 2 voice actors meet for one big animated project
Duncan Crickett in the Injustice comics, Harley Quinn got her team to get all the people out of there, Plus I see no people in those cars, it confusing
I think I read somewhere that this fights goes so well for our superman specifically because he holds back and doesn't kill. Literally Injustice Superman constantly hitting as hard as he can all the time means he has less power in reserve for situations where he might need it.
17:04-17:44 Injustice Batman: Superman’s accomplices have been rounded up or turned themselves in. The next job is restoring civil order. Superman: The transitional government has it’s hands full. We’re here if they need help. Injustice Batman: Thanks, but no. The people need to know they’re in control, not us. Superman: So you haven’t changed your mind? Injustice Batman: I respect the president’s offer, but I don’t belong in government. None of us do. Superman: You think Batman has a future here? Injustice Batman: Crime and corruption will return. Ollie would have called me a pessimist. I'm just being realistic. Superman: And your Superman? Injustice Batman: He’ll stand trial. They all will. Superman: He was right you know. Injustice Batman: About what? Superman: Put in the same position, I might have done the same thing. We never know what we're truly capable of. Injustice Batman: I hope for your world’s sake, you never find out. Just keep this in mind. Superman: Yeah? Injustice Batman: If something ever happens and you do lose it, I’m coming for you. Superman: Heh. You'll have to get in line.

To have the JL Supes show up as the last character in the campaign to play as is nothing short of genius and to have the first thing to come out of his mouth be actual concern for the innocent people in the crossfire is just the cherry on top.
The big part of this though is the Insurgency Batman just watching and hearing Superman talk like how he used to. Concerned for the safety of people and strategising about how to handle the battle with the least amount of innocent casualties possible. It’s a callback to a time this Bruce misses, a time he wishes to go back to and despite the quick and stoic way he says it… you can tell he genuinely means it when he welcomes Superman back in a thematic sense.
Superman is a god who sees himself as a man. A strong man who lives in a fragile world. He could easily use his abilities to become just as much of a monster as the likes of Darkseid or Lex Luthor. Two of the most powerful and dangerous villains driven by their lust for power and conquest.
Superman is more close to becoming these people than he thinks and yet despite that he chooses that he won’t become them and fights everyday to ensure that doesn’t happen.
Superman is loved not because of his laser eyes or his flying. He isn’t cherished because bullets can’t hurt him or because he can breathe in space. He’s loved because behind all that is a genuinely good man who’s willing to risk his life fighting creatures and people even more powerful than him to ensure that those lesser off don’t have to fight.
Clark Kent is capable of so much destruction and conquest and yet he doesn’t see that. He only sees a way to help make people’s lives a little more better off and that is one of the most admirable qualities I have ever seen in a character. It’s why I love him…
Too bad folks like Zack Snyder only see Superman for the spectacle instead of the heart and it’s a shame that the more darker version of Superman is becoming more of a trend nowadays… still I hold out hope that folks will still love Superman for the reason I’ve displayed.
Despite the godlike abilities at his disposal there’s a reason he calls himself Super”man”. Hope there’s more variations of him in the future that remember that aspect of him… that aren’t Multiverses…
THIS!
Couldn’t have said it better myself! Superman always has the best of intentions, he could use his power for evil, but instead he uses them to help mankind. He doesn’t do it for the glory or the fame, he does it because not only is it the right thing to do, Superman sees potential in us, he knows that we as people have the ability do great things and that with his help it’ll only be easier for us and him, being a fellow man in his own right, to make the world a better place.
Man of Steel was not a bad movie
I got an answer for Zach Snyder universe: the reverse Flash is responsible for that verse himself.
If Warner Bros let Snyder’s verse plans to be put effect we would’ve seen the Flash reverse the timeline so we able to see these characters being the people we know and love. The Reverse Flash is that petty to screw up Barry’s life from the get go. Hence why Superman are willing to kill; Batman uses guns; Wonder Woman’s death; etc. The Flash movie would explain everything wrong with Snyder’s universe and use it to reboot the DCU but Warner Bros fired him while grieving for his daughter. So he released a 3-4 hour long movie as a love letter to fans ( Zach Snyder’s: Justice League ). And because of Warner Bros decisions everything fall apart in this DCU and left a sour taste for the fandom.
@@JDog2656meh it had some aspects I liked, some I dislike but overall it and in edition Zack Snyder doesn’t understand or care about what makes Superman… well Superman.
They have the cape, they have the suit and they have the cool powers but it lacks the colour and charm that Superman is idealised for. Both figuratively and literally.
His suit is darkened and drained of the bright blue, yellow and red, his father would rather he let a school bus full of kids and himself die before revealing that his son is an alien (something that no other iteration of Clark’s parents would ever… *ever* say or do) and in the end you’re left with this edgy husk of what was once the paragon of virtue and good.
Zack Snyder’s Superman is not superman. He’s an edgy teenagers oc wearing the costume of Superman. If you’re into it that’s fine but I’m not because I believe it’s a disgrace and disservice to a character that is loved because of his optimistic charm.
Zack is an aesthetic person, he only sees spectacle without the context and story. Again not a bad thing on its own but with someone like Superman… I don’t wanna repeat myself.
I love the chemistry between JL|Sups and Injustice|Batman.
Everyone should have a friend like this.

That line from Injustice Batman is probably the least Batman like thing I’ve ever heard
"The people need to know they're in control not us.." -Batman
It's a quote that superheroes acknowledge they are there for protection but, the citizens are in control of their own destiny... Really nice quote
Injustice Batman refusing the president’s offer in the government is good too. Injustice Batman knew that being in the government is the last thing he wants, because he’ll wound up corrupt as Regime Superman. That is the one thing Injustice Batman doesn’t want.
“Disobedient children will be punished.”
“*Children?!*”
I love these quotes, because it defines the real Superman.
Superman does not see the people as less than him. He wants to protect people because it’s the right thing to do.
*SUPERMAN:* We're not gods... we don't decide who lives and who dies.
Superman sees himself as a human cause he was raised among them, he wants to protect people cause he has power to do so for good and knows it’s want his parents both sets of then wants him to do.
This was the most cathartic moment in the story
All those chapters showcasing how evil the Injustice Superman is served to make us appreciate the real Superman
Aren't there people inside those cars that Superman is zapping? Aha
That was my first thought.
my thoughts excatly
Nixon Ng me too I was like hes lost his mind! Lollo
My thought was: "We interrupt this video game to bring you Man of Steel."
MrTooner13 LOL
"Fear is the only thing these people understand." Guess Batman really rubbed off on Supes after all those years.
Yea I guess so.
Yeah, but Regime Superman took it to extremes. Batman only strikes fear into the villains, not the entire human race.
Your damn right.
More like Sinestro
The reason why the regime was so powerful was also the reason they fell. Talk about ironic justice.
"Tragic irony, or poetic justice?"

So Superman fought and defeated back-to-back Black Adam, Sinestro, Aquaman, Doomsday, after this in his fatigue state he fought his alternate counterpart who was fresh with full power and still kicked his Ass..... Injustice Superman is Weak Seriously
He got used to winning instantly,whereas our superman still practiced restraint prior to arriving,thus having to rely more on skill than just instantly killing everyone.Ultimately being better off when he cut loose.Plus injustice superman seems to not sunbathe as much anymore,instead preferring to stay in his fortress and mope.
@@thelonesurvivor3955 in the comic edition ; there's no fight with adam cause he only freezes adam and take off sinestr rings
Well to be frank that sinestro thing wasn't really a fight
He hadn’t really had a real challenge since he came into power. All of earth’s major villains are either imprison, executed, in hiding, or work for him.
I don't know how the fight really went in lore wise but it could go to the comics version, meaning Superman was just holding back hard because he probably knows all of their weaknesses and it wasn't hard to deal with them until he started fighting Doomsday. But the fact he yeeted Doomsday's ass to the next dimension and was already quite tired at his current state but managed rekt his evil self's ass just means shows that OG Superman had more experience and knows how to counter himself better than Batman The Goat.
Evil Superman: "I saved this world!"
Good Superman: "Now I'm saving it from you!"
The greatest never-ending battle is always within the self.
Only superman can stop superman.
no batman, money, and kytione, i know i spelled it wrong

8:20 Eh, no big deal. Daily Planet globe always torn off.
Lolol good one 😆
scottabreitbarth I thought it would hit Superman xD
Another ordinary day in Metropolis.
Lol
The saddest implication of the final fight here is: if Superman goes haywire, nobody can stop the consequent destruction of the Earth (just like a big freaking volcano covering the entire atmosphere!) except another Superman JL
In the comics, Superman was almost killed multiple times; what saved his ass were either someone else's meddling (Sinestro, Raven) or Wonder Woman being a crazy bitch.
imo this is why the Injustice prequel comic completely failed in what it was trying to do
So, evil Superman wears his underwear on the outside..........makes sense.
It's more of a red diaper at this point
It's a jump suit
Not going to lie, I really like (prime) Superman’s suit in this game. Not too old fashioned, no red underwear, no spandex.
I actually really like Superjerks design
That outfit is the real reason Batman wanted to stop him.
After reading the comics (Injustice Year One to Injustice Year Five), I can't put into words just how _satisfying_ it is to watch the ending. Part of what makes this ending so great is that Injustice Superman is defeated by the _real_ Superman. All in all, it's been a great journey.
"Here's you chance to do whats right. I would take it." This game was fuckin A
When the Batman/Superman were planning a strategy in the beginning of the video the other Batman was thinking I miss my own friend in Superman without him there will always be a gape that can't be filled
George Newbern. You can’t go wrong with him voicing Superman.
Superman will always stand for truth and justice. I love how this is presented. It also shows why he holds back with his powers.
That doomsday fight was pretty damn close. Nice.
Mostly fearsome figjt
Superman: Sinestro. Gimme your ring
Superman: No don't even say nothing just gimme your ring.
Not indefinitely, comrade, I think that he surprised Regime Sinestro from behind, grabbed his arm and then grabbed the ring from him and crushed it.
@@cancerjuly1989 ha RDCworld
Or he'll break your arm! lol
I also read the injustice comics to get more into my favorite game.
Seeing superman slowly become evil was a very traumatizing experience.
When he resulted to torturing batman to get what he wanted is when he finally realized he was bad than he got his ass whooped by Alfred
What I liked about the comics was Harley Quinn. She changed so much that I made me tear up especially when she helped Superman.
8:18 *He says as buildings fall and the Daily Planet's globe rolls away*
That got a chuckle out of me ngl
This game has my personal favorite Superman design ever. I especially like how his cape “connects” to the Superman logo :D
That look on alternate Batman's face when he hears Superman talk. It's like him feeling hope for the first time in years.
"It's good to have you back."
Doomsday watches doomsday vs Superman haha really logic
doomsday also watched Superman vs Superman after it was trapped
vegetto yes man it's a foolish from the company
Gökberk Emirler could be doomsday form good Superman dimension
He vibing
@@Lordeightbane prime Doomsday was in the Regime Doomsday fight.
“There’s been enough killing” I never quite liked the way he said this, like a Parent scolding, in the Spanish translation they made him say something that sounded much more powerful that translates to.
“You’ll have to kill me”
“No…Not even you… Too many have died already..”
He said in a way that sounded hurt yet angry.
It truly showed his broken spirit.
Its funny how the comics showed how long the war was since Superman become corrupted, the REAL superman appears, stop the regime like a school fight, defeat Black Adam, Aquaman m, Doomsday and himself in half and hour like was a typical tuesday
Incredible

Supes is literally like, "You're gonna _get_ it." when he gives that head-shaking glare. He's _not_ playing around.

His greatest powers is his compassion,understanding, calmness and kindness and humility to others. Nothing but love and respect for MY GOAT Superman. The perfect Hero. The greatest hero of all time.
"And you stole this planet's freedom, it's time to give it back!" That line probably my favorite quote in comicbook media history

I didnt realize how long that throwing car mini game was...
And goddamn that argument between the Supermen was awesome. You can feel the pain of Evil Supermans loss but you can also see how Good Superman is seeing this world and how evil superman turned it.
This may have been one of the first times a story in a game made me feel anger for what a character has done...Early on in the story I felt the anger and the absolute want for revenge to joker... but as the story goes on I started feeling like okay this is a bit much then at the end OUR Superman the one that we love solidified what it is that we love about him.
For what little they had to give us in A VIDEO GAME STORY mind you, this was so well done.
17:17 that was probably emotional for flash because the green arrow in the injustice universe was killed by superman
and not just Green Arrow, but also Shazam. Shazam's unfortunate death broke the straw for the Flash.
that superman vs suprerman fight was damn close , I would have been cool if superman did his finishing move to superman 😂

Instead of fighting Injustice Hal, Main Superman convinces him to do the right thing.
That conversation between the two Supermen always gives me the chills. George Newbern did an excellent job voicing them subtly differently so you could tell them apart by voice alone. It truly represents both the best and the worst Superman can be.
Seeing the good superman mow through everyone in this chapter is so satisfying to watch honestly
Good Superman” we’re not gods ,we don’t decide who lives and who dies” well said. The Right/Power deciding who lives and who dies( is a Big responsibility and NOT to be taken lightly) .. but the way the Evil superman uses it, like it’s a child’s toy

15:24 The multiverse’s most epic fist bump
Our universe's Superman is a TRUE Superman.
He was the better man than high councilor Superman ever was.
I will always love how our Superman acknowledges “that could’ve been me too”
That he knows that that really could’ve been him I’d put in the sand situation. It said Llg about him that he can admit that but firmly say “just because I see why you took the means to get here doesn’t mean the ends are justified”
It shows that Superman always considers the future. That he's not shortsighted to simply dismiss it and say that would never be him. Once again enunciating how grateful we should be for the original.
Prime Superman sees the big picture just like every version of Batman. He knows that if he kills the Joker just like when his Injustice counterpart rightly did, he can't stop until it's become a slippery slope to become the monster he could become.
If Black Adam won: The Regime is eternal like my home.
If Aquaman won: Now you will leave!
If Doomsday won: Doomsday has arrived.
If Injustice Superman won: Lois. Wait for me.
