Wait, I meant Friday. Damn, I'm lost with the time

>>89678915
How does the chronology for this comic work? After all of the comics, the story for the game starts? Is there a prequel comic?

>>89679233
I meant a sequel comic.

>>89679233
There's comics ARE the Prequel.
It starts from the opening cutscene of the game, and then explores the 5 unseen years that happened between that cutscene and the actual game starting.

>>89679262
Currently they're doing a comic run of the story of the game as well then.
Injustice 2 is confirmed, and when it comes out it might get a sequel comic too.

>>89679233
The comics are the Prequel of Injustice 1, it games the first game background of how Supes and the World ended up the way it did.

Ground Zero it gives Injustice 1 story more background focused on Harley, how Harley dealt with an Alternative Universe Joker and how she's internally after so many years without her Puddin'

>>89679287
It's confirmed that Injustice 2 it's getting a prequel comic in the same vein as this one, with the same writer and artist (Tom Taylor & Bruno Redondo). Now what happens after the Injustice 2 prequel ends nobody knows

>>89679044
>>89679077
>>89679103
>>89679136
I swear, I think Tom Taylor would actually be amazing for a classic Brave-and-the-Bold type series. He has a knack for those classic character dynamics, like GA/BC, and the GA/GL broship.

>>89678950
>>89678983
>>89679010
Poor Hal, being pressured into going out just to be the third wheel.

>>89679238
>>89679404

The Green Arrow/Canary stuff was my favorite thing about Injustice

>>89679292
>>89679315

I hate that this whole comic hinges on Lantern and Wonder Woman being literally retarded for 5 years.

>>89679460
>We will tear you down
>the one to beat Superman ends up being earth prime Superman

>>89679501
I'm reading for the first time so it may become more apparent later, but Wonder Woman seems pretty aware of what she's doing so far.

>>89679656
Damn, Jim...

>>89679535
>>89679559
Oh man, poor Kyle. He didn't even get a chance for some miraculous OP power-up like he usually does.

>>89680002
In space, no one can hear you NAAAARGHH!

In what year will be Superman's dream? Third?

>>89679501
>Lantern and Wonder Woman being retarded
Have you seen Batman in this comic?

>>89680195
Yeap, Year Three issue #13 and #14

>>89679723
Yeah. it seems she straight up wants a King Supes and her to be Queen Diana

She's personally escalated things over and over again

>>89680217
hes missing his joker and most of his criminal buddies in arkham, cut him some slack.

>>89680217
Batman is straight up authentically autistic in this universe.

>>89680119
Oh Guy...

>>89680002
I love Injustice Sinestro. So very much.

>>89680320
Aaaw, you are FINALLY listening to what Sinestro tried to teach you all those years ago, Hal!

>>89680467
He's just loves being evil so much

>>89679501
Well at least it seems like I2 Hal is on the good side again.

>>89680580
That, and he gets all involved in Earth politics for MONTHS just to finally get Hal to join him. After that, Sinestro doesn't really seem to care much about what happens.

>>89680586
Which is bullshit. He never turned his back on the Regime and in the end of I1, he was being shipped off to Oa with Sinestro to be imprisoned. The Guardians aren't exactly known for being lenient in their judgement; there is no way they would forgive Hal.

>>89680677
Maybe there's more Multiversal shit
Or maybe Oa gets blown up by Apokalips or something

Or maybe they don't give a shit

>>89680766
I actually know very little about Green Lanterns. How much "authority" do they have to judge the governments and people of the planets they protect?

>>89680813
None. They're protectors and are expected not to get in the way.

>>89680832
Unless your name starts with "Sin" and ends with "Estro"

>>89680713
Or Atrocitus and the red lanterns shit

I mean, his dialogs to insergency members in I2 is mostly about "give me Hal Jordan you assholes", so he may be involved

>>89680813
Depends on the lantern and the situation. The official rule of the Corps is that they cannot get involved in politics of any given planet, but the Guardians are known to be pretty inconsistent in enforcing this particular rule.

>>89680948
>not nyaaargh

>>89680970
I haven't seen a single NAAAARGH so far
Where are my NAARGHs at?

>>89680858
Dude, Sinestro is the one who got punished the worst for getting involved in the politics of his own world. Not just stripped of his ring, but sent to the fucking Antimatter universe, too!
Yet, it is a-ok for Iolande, a ruler of her planet, to be a member of GLC.
Like said, inconsistent as fuck.

>>89681070
I will never not get mad at this. Fallen from such grace.

>>89680439
>Well, it's hard to argue with that
No Hal, it isn't.

>>89681123
Why is Guy always so great?

>>89681070
Any one of them that goes back the next day should be impeached.

>>89680677
He surrendered to Prime!Supes so maybe he thought about it. Also
>there's no way they would forgive hal
Parallax.

>>89681123
>>89681158
>Ganthet showing up personally
I guess the Guardians need to make sure their GL farmworld is OK
Can't disrupt that steady flow of expendable humans

>>89681453
So that's it? This Superman turned out evil because he got one less hug from his mother?

>>89681510
The Kents explained it really good before Supes killed Ollie.
This version of Superman is all tied up with making sure he doesn't lose anything anymore since he's lost so much already

>>89681510

Of course not. He became evil not because he killed the Joker, or because he wanted to rule the world and make it a better place.

He became evil when the means started to outweigh the ends. But of course Superman doesn't see it that way, he still sees world peace as the ultimate goal.

>>89681510
No, the flashback becomes relevant.

>>89681609
Because Tomar-Re is a shit lantern

>>89681636
Posting images in a storytime is considered rude. Just FYI. I think OP needs at least 2 threads anyway. But still.

>>89681659
You're right, I'm sorry OP

>>89681641
Ganthet is being a bit hypocritical here
>We let Krypton die because it was their own choice
>We can't let you ruin Earth even though its your choice

>>89681698
>my planet
Go back to kypton you alien

>>89681706
Not how they see it.
Krypton died because Kryptonians led it to die.

Here, he thinks Earth will die because a Kryptonian led it to die, not an Earthling.

If Superman was an Earthling, the guardians wouldnt give a fuck.

>>89681706

Kal-El is of Kyrpton, it's up to humanity to elect a leader. Not for an alien to cease it's position...according to Ganthet.

>>89681543
I think the lack of Lex Luthor being a villain also had a negative impact on him.

>>89681750
>>89681755
>People are from where their parents were from
I see how it is, Ganthet
Want to Make the Universe Great Again, eh?

>>89681832
Kal-El is a DREAMER who's parents took him across the space border illegally

>>89681895
Look who is an anti-deadite, shame.

>>89681923
I'm still on Supes side here, but, man, did you have to have Stormtroopers?
Why not just happy smiley super-guys?

>>89681923
>>89681956
Poor Hub City, even in Superman's totalitarian regime no one cares.

>>89681755
Ganthet is the closest thing the Guardians have to a moral compass. If it was Luthor who was strongarming the world into submission and Hal had joined up with him Ganthet still would have gotten involved, just not with the consent of the others.

>>89681191
I think being possessed by an evil entity might earn you a "get out of jail" card. Joining the sworn enemy of the Corps out of your own free will? Not so much.

>>89682024
No statistician has ever made it out of Hub City alive to present the numbers.

>>89682024
so does superman just nuke it

>>89682181
C'mon Ganthet, you're a guardian of the universe not the Watcher.

>>89682221
INJUSTICE GUY GARDNER UPDATE:
STILL GREAT

>>89682282
He's not going to make it, is he?

>>89682308
You probably already know the answer.

>>89682308
All GLs except Hal die. That being said, John got a new design for I2, so who knows.

>>89682404
>Literally all women
Damn Bats

>>89682349
"Dad... What does that have to do with Superman?"

>>89682439
Barry you're a stupid fuck. Go back to genociding planets.

Sorry, just had to get that out of my system.

>>89682503
He seems like the smartest guy on Team Superman, unless Lex is playing the long con.

>>89682556
I love this whole part.

>>89681716
THIS

>>89682563
Yes, Lex is playing the long con.

Not a spoiler, it's a major plot point in Injustice.

>>89682563
He is too pure for this world

>>89682556
This is the true turning point of Injustice. If this speech, coming from this guy, isn't enough to get Superman to quit and Barry to remove those stupid fucking shoulder pads from his costume then nothing else will.

>>89682595
>>89682626
>>89682681
>>89682723
>>89682764
this is fucking ridiculous

>>89682826
what's wrong?

>>89682940
I'm starting to think that Sinestro may not be a reliable narrator

>>89682978
>NAARGH
Finally!
There's been a serious NAARGH drought

>>89682940
Dude can't even NAARGH!
>>89682978
Now THAT'S a NAARGH!

>>89683054
No one listens to Barry

>>89683284
Would Hal still have sided with Superman if he had been there to see Superman turn his best friend into a fine paste with his fists?

>>89682723
Sinestro would NEVER go greet his baby daughter while still covered in blood. Clearly the art is showing us a twisted version of the events as imagined by Barry, since he tries to cling to the idea of Sinestro being evil and wrong.

>>89683054
"I don't blame Hal. He was merely MISGUIDED."

>>89683420
This is why Stewart had a chip on his shoulder when he was first recruited. Having to witness kittens getting slapped around hardens a man.

Hal doesn't know that Sinestro came to Earth at this point, right?

>>89683669
Hal flying into things is a classic

>>89683598
Damn, they sure do turn on their own fast.

"Yeah, we need you to turn on the guy who you've worked with for the last several years."

"Yeah, I always KNEW he was a criminal."

Rest of GL corps: "Lets blindly follow The Gaurdians Orders."

>>89681047
Sinestro trolls like a champ.

That is some Palpatine tier trolling there.

>>89683705
Loyalty to the Corps over an individual

>>89683705
>"Remember what happened with Sinestro?"
>"... No?"
>"Godammit, Jordan"

>>89683454
If Hal was there he would have stopped it.

>>89683853
>HAARGH
Looks like someone told Taylor that he had too many "NAAARGHs"
Guess he's diversifying

>>89683853
Well This is an actual spoilerBlack Canary is there so obviously some shenanigans happen.

>>89683651
Nope, not yet. At this point, Hal has no idea that Sinestro has come to court him.

>>89683931
I'm not entirely convinced she wasn't just supposed to be Sonya Blade and decided to reskin her as a DC character

>>89683795
Could he? He stopped for his mother, but only when the deed was well and done and she had to take a power pill to gain the strength just to divert his attention. It really seems like Superman and Wonder Woman are in a class of their own in this comic, like it was written from the perspective of someone who thinks Superman is so poerful that they legitimately question why the Justice League is even necessary.

>>89684112
I think Hal could put up enough resistance that Supes would have to put effort into breaking through, and that would give him time to think about what he was doing.

>>89684112
>like it was written from the perspective of someone who thinks Superman is so poerful that they legitimately question why the Justice League is even necessary.
Not really
Supes gets his ass kicked quite a lot over the series

>>89684190
Oh man, I thought that the "For you" reaction image was legit

>>89684160
Dick move, Kal.

>>89680002
So, how did he get rekt so badly?

>>89684338
Batmans spine is broken, but he will fully recover because of the powers of sleeping.

>>89679800
dna peels

>>89684338
by the power of NAARGH

>>89684507
I'm on board with the whole "Superman is a menace" thing, but fuck these guys. You don't get to just show up and take people to the center of the universe because you don't like them.

>>89682043
They've pardoned Smugestrogen Atleast twice

Depends on how fucked shit is

>>89684584
Superman and his cronies did the same thing at Arkham.

>>89684637
LOL!

>>89684657
Yeah, and he's an asshole. Doesn't stop the lanterns from also being assholes.

>>89684675
If this is how they protect the Earth they'll be shipping everyone to the moon before Year Four.

>>89684637
>>89684675
>>89684739
>the Justice League has an orbital laser that they can use to bombard the surface of the Earth
>they had to have built this before Superman turned evil

Were the Justice League ever the good guys in the Injustice-verse?

>>89684625
Once when Sinestro already had a GL ring again and once because they were hoping Sinestro would be able to kill Hal, right?
... so I guess if Atrocitus is going after the Guardians, they might pardon Hal in hopes of Hal killing Atrocitus for them?

>>89684657
Superman is not a criminal he's saving the world. Green Lanterns all deserved to die like the idiots they are. Following a bunch of retarded space midgets was the biggest mistake you could make.

>>89681750
but he is an earthling hes been there since birth basically he cant exactly go back to krypton. ganthet is a retard.

>>89684847
They had the death laser in the JL cartoon as well.

>>89685051
Sinestro just might be the smartest one in the whole Injustice universe.
Which isn't saying THAT much, sure, but still.

>>89685105
Constantine is up there, but in a stupid way.

Injustice

Also known as

"HE CAN"T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT!" The comic

My favorite

>>89685083
>He doesn't need me to
Oh Sinestro

>>89685015
I like this a lot
I love it when Green Lanterns flex their powers in more than "Giant Green Fist"
