New Comic
It's entirely Kotal Kahn and Sonya vs the Shokan
[hide]-Pure and absolute chaos ensues.
-The random unnamed members of Sonya's team started getting killed off.
-Sonya and Johnny can't contact each other. Sonya assumes the worst.
-Kotal Kahn speaks to his dead father, asking what would he do in this situation. Kotal watches from safety as the Shokan slaughter Earthrealmer and Outworlder alike.-Sonya meets up with Shaun (the red headed guy who looks like Sheamus).
-He cries out "Let's kill these son-bitches!" and Sonya scolds him for 'using the B-word'. …....Fucking what?
-Shokan comes out of no where and cuts Sheamus/Shaun in half. (Noooooooo!)-Flash to D'Vorah and Ferra/Torr who are checking on Kotal Kahn.
-They're shocked to see that Kotal Kahn is gone.-Sonya attacks the Shokan that killed Sheamus, only to discover that both her attack and Kotal Kahn's attack killed the Shokan.
-Kotal Kahn stands beside Sonya, in hope to fight beside her against the Shokan.
-Their sudden triumphant bravado is suddenly interrupted by Johnny running from a crowd of Shokans screaming, "Run you idiots!"
[/hide]Not much happened, except for the death of a good ally.
-
After much fan request, Tanya's skin color has been restored back to the darker tone she had in previous games. Her eyes also seem to mimic that of Mortal Kombat Deception's 'pupil-less' look.
It's kind of nice how much NetherRealm has been listening to their fans.
-
Big no on the eyes it only works for Sindel.
-
Some of these Elders are surprisingly not that bad, for all they're just button mashing. Especially the Grandmas. Kitana FTW.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
They're not much of a fan of the Fatalities, though. As one might expect.
-
The amount of hype Libby had was by far the best thing. I wanna play video games with her.
-
She does play a pretty sweet Kitana.
-
They're not much of a fan of the Fatalities, though. As one might expect.
Gee I wonder how'd they feel if they played MK9 seeing as that one is far more bloody than X. To say nothing of the oversexualization of the female characters.
-
They would probably flip over that more than the gore.
-
Jason's three variations are Slasher (Focusing on more Machete attacks), Relentless (Which grants him a teleport and command grabs) and Unstoppable (He has health regeneration, and a second wind after a K.O.)
Default specials include a charge attack, a slashing combo and temporary super armor.

Wow only a dedicated Friday The 13th fan could've incorporated those associated aspects into Jason's fighting style.
-
The teleport is pretty cool, though. He basically walks into a mist and appears right behind the enemy. Jason having a teleport sounds dumb, but the way the pulled it off looks awesome.
In general, he's pretty cool. He's like a tank. A lot of his attacks have super armor, so it's like Jason is approaching you and you better pray you have way it takes to survive or evade his attacks. He basically has Colossus' super that gives him constant super armor, but when it wears off, he's stunned for a moment. It's kind of neat.
He's basically a slow grunt that you have to play keep away with unless you WANT to get butchered. Which I'd say fits Jason pretty well.
-
After seeing those three variations of his, I have to say that l'm not impressed at all. A pretty boring character IMO (although I will admit that some of the attacks in his slasher style are ok I guess).
And this is coming from a guy who is also a fan of the friday the 13th movies (at least some of his movies anyway).
-
Not sure what I expected from Jason's fatalities but I wish they were better
-
Not sure what I expected from Jason's fatalities but I wish they were better
When every fatality is a variation of a decapitation or a mutilation it's hard to make something that stands out.
-
I thought Jason had a chainsaw.
-
I think his variations look great, but I just can't get over how his animation looks crude.
-
-
So I kind of missed out on the last chapter due to being out of town. Now that I'm caught up, we have two really awesome chapters.
Issue #18 (Really short, but really good)
[hide]-Kotal Kahn and King Gorbak (Goro's father) are in brutal kombat. Kotal is slightly getting his ass tossed around while his squad are having a hard time fighting themselves.
-However while Gorbak was in the middle of trash talking, Kotal slams his hands together and CRUSHES GORBAK'S HEAD!
-King Gorbak is dead.
-The remaining Shokan retreat.
-Johnny is extremely injured, and Sonya has a touching conversation with him in hopes to keep him awake. She calls him Johnny.
-Kotal watches this conversation and orders D'Vorah to take the two of them to Shang Tsung's island as soon as possible.
-Kotal fears that the Shokan will return to attack tomorrow and finish the job.-Goro and Kintaro argue over Goro's claim to the throne. Due to Goro's limbless state, the Shokan do not see him fit as king.
-Goro, wearing a cape the conceals his missing limbs, rides off on a flaming buffalo claiming that he will return, and when he does, the Shokan will beg for him to be king.-Flash to Kotal Kahn, who is panicking because someone has taken Kotal's blood magic dagger.
-Flash to Shang Tsung island, where Havik is speaking with SKARLET (!!!). During the Shokan invasion, Skarlet had snuck inside Kotal's fortress and stole the dagger.
-Havik exclaims that it is finally time to use Cassie Cage and steal her powers (the green light).[/hide]Issue #19:
[hide]-The Kotal crew (Kotal, Reptile, D'Vorah, Ferra/Torr) stand together, anticipating the upcoming Shokan invasion.
-Kotal demands that they all leave him to die alone, so that they may all leave on.
-The crew starts remembering the past and how they met Kotal Kahn.-Reptile remembers the tournament, and how he failed numerous times.
-Shao Kahn had ordered Kotal Kahn to assassinate Reptile in his sleep. Reptile was aware of this, and noticed Kotal approaching him at night… only to change his mind.
-Instead of killing Reptile, Kotal requests Shao Kahn to let Reptile being his aid. Shao Kahn reluctantly accepts.
-Kotal Kahn tells Reptile that Shao Kahn was a fool to use an outstanding spy as a kombatant in a fighting tourment.
-Reptile is thankful.-Ferra/Torr requests to speak of her past. Kotal refuses, but Ferra tells it anyway because she's Ferra.
-Tarkatans had imprisoned both Ferra and Torr, prepared to kill them both.
-Kotal saved them, and together, they butchered the Tarkatans and consumed them.
-The End.
-What a funny story, Mark.-Kotal is getting pissed that the crew want to die beside him instead of leaving to die alone. He claims they don't respect him.
-D'Vorah then speaks of her homeland. The Arnyek Islands. The comic doesn't mention it, but I believe it was part of Edenia.
-The Kyttin spent too much time arguing and panicking to prepare a proper defense against Shao Kahn's invasion.
-D'Vorah confronts Shao Kahn during the invasion and swears her allegiance. The rest of her people were enslaved.
-She stood in the shadow of Shao Kahn until his death.
-D'Vorah then speaks of her attempt to serve Mileena. Mileena requested her to kiss her boot. In D'Vorah's attempt to do so, Mileena kicked her in the face for her amusement.-D'Vorah speaks of when Kotal defied Mileena. The comic shows Reptile shielding Kotal Kahn and taking a sai to the chest from Mileena's attack.
-D'Vorah claims that Shao Kahn and Mileena ruled as tyrants, but Kotal Kahn rules with respect.
-Kotal Kahn accepts his allies, and agrees to let them stay with him, stating that he is proud of all of them.-Suddenly, the fortress begins to shake. An earthquake.
-The earthquake was caused by Tremor (!!!). The Black Dragon have arrived. Kano, Jarek, Tasia, and Tremor confront the Kotal crew.
-They have come to help against the Shokan attack![/hide] -
! -However while Gorbak was in the middle of trash talking, Kotal slams his hands together and CRUSHES GORBAK'S HEAD!
! Hey Gorbak I'mma let you finish but Kotal had the best decapitation of all time
! -Reptile remembers the tournament, and how he failed numerous times.
! -Kotal Kahn tells Reptile that Shao Kahn was a fool to use an outstanding spy as a kombatant in a fighting tourment.Intelligent realization,burial of a well known jobber, or a pet the dog moment.
This leaves so much open to interpretation.
-D'Vorah claims that Shao Kahn and Mileena ruled as tyrants, but Kotal Kahn rules with respect.
The more and more I see of Kotal's characterization in the comics the more and more I'm intrested to see how his characterization translates in the game outside of his non-canon character ending….....(still procratinating on playing through story mode).
-
The comic has done a fantastic job focusing on different stories and trying to characterize as many major characters as they can.
MKX's in-game story didn't do as good of a job.
-

MKX's in-game story didn't do as good of a job.
To be fair, a player can only watch so many cutscenes in a fighting game story mode until they want to cut to the chase and return to pummeling faces.
-
Well, this puts D'vorah's kiss in story mode under a new light, I guess. Also explain why she looked so satisfied.
On the other hand…
! Just makes her "true loyalty" - and the fact she and Kotal never meet again after she betrays him - more disappointing. After his "you wound me" when he was told what happened, I was really expecting they would meet face to face later. I hope they give us this scene in the next game.

New Comic chapter:
[hide]-Mileena is watching over a deeply burned and wounded Rain, hoping for his full recovery.
-Ermac comes in, seeming to work for Mileena, explaining to her the events of Kotal Kahn vs the Shokan. He explains that the Black Dragon have arrived to help them.
-Rain suddenly awakens, and immediately tells Mileena that Reiko has plans to betray her and is working for Havik and the Red Dragon.
-Mileena launches an army of Tarkatans onto Shang Tsung island, where Reiko, Havik, Cassie, and Jacqui are.-Flash to Kotal Kahn and the Black Dragon vs the Shokan. Despite how awesome that sounds, they didn't show the fight. The fight is already over when the panel begins, and Kotal Kahn is prepared to execute Kintaro.
-Kintaro begs to be killed for the sake over his honor.
-Not only does Kotal Kahn refuse, but he demands that the Shokan join forces with him. He claims Mileena has no interest in helping the Shokan, and that if the Shoken join him, he swears that they will live by honor and fight.
-Kintaro and the Shokan agree. The Kotal vs Shokan war ends in peace.-Inside, Kotal Kahn discuss the terms of agreement with Kano and the Black Dragon.
-Kano requests money. Kotal has none, but he also feels that Kano deserves none due to the risk Kano made when he and Erron kidnapped Cassie and Jacqui.
-Kano claims that it was Erron's idea and begins showing off the portal stone they had taken from Kotal.
-Kotal slugs Kano and takes the stone back.
-Tremor threatens to destroy the entire fortress with one earthquake if Kotal lays one more finger on Kano.
-Tremor is suddenly shot with a machine gun (non-fatally) by Sonya.
-It seems Sonya and Johnny haven't left for Shang Tsung's island yet.
-Sonya requests Kotal not to kill Kano but instead, imprison him. Kotal had no plans to kill him from the start. Kano and the Black Dragon members are sent to the dungeon.-Hanzo and Takeda visit a Shaolin academy which was made and dedicated to Liu Kang. They have a huge golden statue of Liu.
-Takeda asks Hanzo what Liu Kang was like, and is shocked to hear that Hanzo actually lost to Liu Kang.
-They are greeted by Shujinko (!!!), who is old instead of young here.
-Hanzo requests the Kamidogu of Chaosrealm. Sadly, Shujinko refuses.
-He explains that it cannot be trusted to anyone because Raiden has become possessed by a demon and cannot be trust. He explains that a cleric told this to him.
-We're introduced to the cleric. It's Havik. >______>
-Shujinko… You do know that Havik is... Forget it.
-Comic ends with Hanzo being 4-5 seconds from wilding on Havik.[/hide] -
[hide]
-Shujinko… You do know that Havik is... Forget it.[/hide]! Poor Shujinko…..still naive, still ignorant.
-
We got new comic:
[hide]-Hanzo and Takeda are speaking with Havik and Shujinko. Havik has a normal face.
-Havik is trying to act all trust worthy and Shujinko is defending him. Shujinko takes Takeda away while Hanzo and Havik speak.
-Hanzo neglects 'human Havik' and tries to take the Kamidogu dagger himself. The kamidogu dagger is an illusion. The dagger has already been taken!
-Havik removes the flesh from his mouth and reveals that he was evil the whole time and made Raiden corrupt, just like he did with Sub-Zero!
-WakkaFlockaOkay.gif
-Takeda is speaking with Shujinko, when Shujinko attacks Takeda, revealing he is possessed by the dagger as well.-Fujin arrives at Sky Temple.
-The Jensei is rejecting Raiden due to his corruption, but Raiden seems to have control. He currently possess three of the Kamidogus.
-Raiden senses that something is wrong.-Sonya and Johnny are waiting for the ship to Shang Tsung's Island to prepare.
-Kotal Kahn and various workers are piling in weapons into the ship in preparation for the upcoming battle against Havik and Reiko.
-Sonya goes berserk when she notices some of the boxes have Black Dragon symbols, implying they were purchased from them.
-Kotal Kahn convinces her to neglect them. Sonya agrees, but swears they will speak of this later.-Reiko and Skarlet are preparing a blood magic spell.
-Skarlet cuts two of the Kamidogu daggers across his chest.
-Reiko bleeds and radiates in crimson energy, and Skarlet latches onto him, absorbing the energy with him.
-Reiko holds Skarlet and claims that together they will conquer Earthrealm, Outworld, and soon destroy the Elder Gods themselves.[/hide]Wait… Reiko is actually into women? Or maybe he's going to betray her too.
-
I must say, out of all the DLC characters, Tremor looks the most impressive

I heard that they are pondering about putting a Xenomorph into the second Kombat Pack. Just a rumor, though.

@S.C.:

Weird how I came to that same speculation as well with the game already having Jason, Reptile, Quan Chi, & Mileena
It wouldn't hurt to add a another horror based character in the game. -

-
I assumed people lost interest. Regardless, a ton has happened since.
[hide]-Okay, let's sum this up real fast.
-Shujinko pushes Takeda around, while Havik proceeds to KILL Hanzo/Scorpion.
-Hanzo lies in tears, begging Takeda to be a better man, until he finally dies.
-Wow. This summary started off pretty grim.
-Havik and possessed Shujinko let Takeda run away.-Sonya, Johnny, and the Kotal Rangers arrive on Shang Tsung's Island. They are attacked by possessed Cassie, possessed Jacqui, Skarlet, and Reiko.
-Reiko kills D'Vorah by tearing her apart with his bare hands. (!!!)
-Fight is interuptted by Mileena, who has arrived to kill the shit out of Reiko. She has sworn to neglect Kotal as long as she gets to kill Reiko. Oh and Ermac is with her.
-Mileena proceeds to perform her roll move, shattering and severing Skarlet's legs. Skarlet is alive, but taken away by Tarkatans, for Mileena will torture her later.
-Mileena then proceeds to crush Reiko's head with Shao Kahn's hammer. This was the immediate moment where Mileena went from 'Top Tier' to 'Goddess Tier' for Insider.
-Sadly, Havik arrives and manipulates everything. Johnny, Sonya, Kotal, Ermac, and Mileena are all taken.
-D'Vorah's corpse begins to buzz with thousands of insects crying, "This one!"-In the distance, the Shokan are watching. Sheeva has been crowned Queen of the Shokan, and Kintaro is her right hand. The pair decide to infiltrate the island.
-They are attacked, but then saved by D'Vorah, who has recovered from her fatal injuries.-Sonya, Mileena, Johnny, Kotal, and Ermac are all chained to stone counters as if they are prepared to be sacrificed.
-Suddenly, rising from a pool of blood, Reiko comes out, good as new.
-Havik and Reiko begin to prepare the ritual. Some sort of… weird ritual where Reiko will obtain the power of the five victims, and become the blood god. Some stupid shit.
-Regardless, the ritual kills Reiko, which was Havik's plan all along. Because ultimate power comes in death.
-Also, Reiko fucking melts. Like... REALLY GROSS BLOOD AND FLESH MELTING! It's awful.
-However, with the ritual almost complete, we now have Sonya, Johnny, Kotal, and Mileena all possessed to be evil. Ermac is still free for some reason. I don't even know why he's here at this point.-Takeda runs to the Wind Temple for help.
-Fujin is there and offers Takeda the weapons he will need to fight. Takeda gains his whips and his skull mask.
-Also, Raiden is possessed now and hanging out with Havik, because why not.-Takeda suddenly teleports in... alone... to save everyone from Havik.
-Possessed Cassie and Jacqui proceed to attack him, and he proceeds to call the two of them cute, especially Jacqui. Takeda is too pure for this franchise.
-He defeats them both, but proceeds to get his ass handed to him from EVERYONE ELSE!-This beatdown is suddenly interrupted by D'Vorah teleporting in with (deep breath) Sheeva, Kintaro, Reptile, Ferra/Torr, and Erron Black. Thus begins the fight breakdown.
Erron Black vs Raiden (Erron is forced to fight him in order to redeem himself in D'Vorah's eyes)
D'Vorah vs Kotal Kahn (Kotal nearly kills her as she screams to him, begging that she is forever loyal to him)
Reptile vs Mileena (Not focused much on)
Sheeva vs Johnny and Sonya (She does surprisingly well!)
Kintaro vs Cassie and Jacqui (He does surprisingly awful!)
Takeda vs Havik-Ermac is still tied down. Still don't know why he's here.
-Takeda has stolen Havik's amulet (which is Shinnok's amulet btw, because of course), and is running away.
-Kintaro proceeds to get his head ripped off by Sonya. (KINTARO IS FUCKING DEAD!!!! OH MY GOD!)-Meanwhile, Hanzo has an existential crisis with Scorpion in the Netherrealm, and the two decide to work together.
-Havik corners Takeda, only for Scorpion to come teleporting in, ripping Havik's head off, and taking it into the Netherrealm.
-Everyone snaps out of their possession. Sonya is hilariously holding onto Kintaro's head. Sheeva forgives her and understands the situation.
-Everyone turns out okay and doesn't feel the need to fight each other.
-Oh, and Ermac decides that Mileena is ill-fit to lead, and leaves to join Kotal. Mileena leaves alone.
-Kotal Kahn agrees with Sonya to make peace between Earthrealm and Outworld, creating the 'Reiko Accord'.-Hanzo brings Havik's decpitated head to the Netherrealm. Because he's Havik, his head is still alive and talking, demanding to be returned.
-Hanzo is greeted by Drahmin and Moloch, who treat him like an old friend. Hanzo tosses Havik's head, which proceeds to fall down the stairs. Havik shouts "Ow!" with each hit. I love this comic oh my god.
-Drahmin accepts the head, prepared to deliver it to Quan Chi, but for whatever reason, Drahmin wants to fight Hanzo.
-Let's shorten this up. Hanzo leaves. Quan Chi finds Havik's head and crushes it with his foot.
-Quan Chi proceeds to kill both Drahmin and Moloch because he basically doesn't like them as much as Scorpion. (I'm not joking here, he literally says to Drahmin "10 of you are no worth anywhere near Scorpion")
-We leave Quan Chi with revenant Liu Kang, Kung Lao, and Kitana scheming. Oh, and D'Vorah is there too, because of course.-Jacqui returns home to Jax and Vera. Jax promises to teach her how to use a gun.
-Cassie is happy to be with her parents and wants to hang out with her mom more often.
-Takeda is alone at the Shirai Ryu graveyard, as he finishes burying the final deceased member of the Shirai Ryu: Fox.
-Hanzo teleports in, witnessing what Takeda has done for the clan.
-Hanzo proceeds to make this face:[hide][/hide]
-…That looks painful.
-And now, we go to the final plot point of the comic series: Sub-Zero vs the Cyber Lin Kuei. It's fucking awesome.
-Kung Jin arrives at the Shaolin, providing Bo Rai Cho with a flash drive. Kung Jin broods and then leaves.
-Bo Rai Cho delivers the flashdrive to Sub-Zero, who now cheers that he has a way to stop Sektor.-What proceeds to probably one the best things this comic has done: A series of comic panels spread out to look like the visual set up of a side-scrolling beat-em up video game. More importantly, a throw back to Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero.
-So Sub-Zero uses the flashdrive to upload a virus onto the Lin Kuei supercomputer. Shortly after, he is taken into custody.
-Sektor and Cyrax question him, trying to find out what the virus does.
-Turns out: The virus disables the mental manipulation of the cyborgs, allowing them to act and respond on their own. They have regained their humanity.
-For the most part, the cyborgs remain evil... except for Cyrax, who proceeds to attack Sektor!!!
-The comic ends with Sub-Zero and Cyrax standing side-by-side, ready to fight Sektor and an army of cyborgs. HYPE!
[/hide]There's one more comic left in the series. Apparently, the comic got confirmed for another season, so there's that. Chances are, we're going to watch Sektor die. I'm worried for Cyrax, but we'll see how things pan out.

-Turns out: The virus disables the mental manipulation of the cyborgs, allowing them to act and respond on their own. They have regained their humanity.
-For the most part, the cyborgs remain evil... except for Cyrax, who proceeds to attack Sektor!!!
-The comic ends with Sub-Zero and Cyrax standing side-by-side, ready to fight Sektor and an army of cyborgs. HYPE!
[/hide]There's one more comic left in the series. Apparently, the comic got confirmed for another season, so there's that. Chances are, we're going to watch Sektor die. I'm worried for Cyrax, but we'll see how things pan out.
That's a lot of moving and shaking…...(and some weirdness thrown in but that's par for the course).

Final issue came out. It's a short one.
[hide]-Sub-Zero and Cyrax vs Sektor and the Cyborgs begin. Cyrax tells Sub-Zero that Sektor has control over them all.
-Sub-Zero slices Sektor's arms off and rips his head off. Sektor dies in two panels. >______>
-The cyborgs pause, look at Cyrax, and begin to assume his command instead, since Cyrax is second rank. Cyrax orders them to leave the room.
-Cyrax and Sub-Zero discuss the future of the Lin Kuei. Cyrax feels that the Lin Kuei deserves a clean slate.
-Cyrax self-destructs that Lin Kuei base, and only Sub-Zero escapes.
-…Wait... CYRAX IS FUCKING DEAD! NO! CYRAX CAN'T DIE! HE'S SUPPOSED TO JOIN SPECIAL FORCES AND BECOME BFF WITH SONYA AND...-Well… Sub-Zero is now meditating at his own place when someone walks up behind him.
-Surprise, it's Frost. I don't care, Cyrax is dead...
-Frost and a whole bunch of randos walk in, asking to join the new Lin Kuei. You know who would like to join? Cyrax.-Flash to limpless Goro confronting the Red Dragon HQ.
-Red Dragon guard mocks his armlessness. Goro proceeds to stomp his ass.
-Daegon comes out. Goro asks him about Onaga/The Dragon King, and his ability to heal and regain his limbs at will.
-Daegon isn't interested unless Goro helps him.
-Goro reveals that he has captured and tied up Kenshi, the Red Dragon's biggest threat.
-The comic series ends here.1. How did Goro tie up Kenshi without any of his arms.
2. WHY IS CYRAX DEAD!?![/hide] -
! Death is cheap in MK.

! Death is cheap in MK.
[hide]Of course, but this is the first time Cyrax has ever been dead, or at least, possibly dead. Kinda sucks to see that, considering how much shit he went through.[/hide]

! Onaga will return someday?
! Will the make my man Reptile finally interesting? Naaaaah
! And fuck what… CYRAX!!!! -

Too bad half of it happened off screen….....and in supplementary material.

I have a question: I heard if you bought the Japanese Costume Pack, you can unlock Shinnok without completing story mode. Is that true?

Supposedly but it's apparently a glitch.

Kombat Pack 2 has been revealed:
Bo Rai Cho
Tri-Borg (Capable of mimicking the moves of Cyrax, Sektor, and cyber Smoke)
Leatherface
Xenomorph (Seems to be a splice between Xenomorph and Baraka/Tarkatan)
