Batgirl Joins The Fight Against Superman's Regime In Injustice: Gods Among Us
"Another Bat character?" The echo of that sentiment rippled across the internet when the latest Injustice DLC character was confirmed last week.
Our own commenters shared disappointment and frustration at Batgirl's inclusion. Hopefully the video below puts that to rest. Barbara Gordon is clearly not a clone of the Dark Knight. Her inclusion reintroduces teleportation by way of smoke bombs, and a number of stun moves that root opponents in place.
It also looks like she'll be bringing along the Joker's iconic vacation wear from The Killing Joke. Fans will recall that the clown was wearing the Hawaiian shirt and shorts when he put a bullet through Barbara, rendering her paralyzed from the waist down. No date has been confirmed for her arrival, but Season Pass holders and those that prefer the a la carte option can now get Lobo, the first additional character.
