Fans hunger to see faces ripped off, opponents beaten bloody with their own limbs and an entire slaughterhouse of finishers that make the Hostel series look like an episode of the Care Bears in comparison.

What if you wanted a character that was easy to master and quick on his feetin a fighting game? If you’re playing Injustice 2, then such a character has just arrived in that scene. A character who is simply the coolest. Pun intended, no regrets and come at me bro
