13th Dimension Previews Mortal Kombat X #6 from DC Comics

Despite its robust story mode; Mortal Kombat X leaves many stones unturned across its 25 year saga of war and redemption! Fortunately, DC Comics continues to fill in the gaps with its top selling digital and print serials. 13th Dimension has an illuminating preview for Mortal Kombat X #6 - where Sub-Zero is dealing with one of his secrets.

Sub-Zero's transformation into a Lin Kuei cyborg was one of the bombshells of the new timeline introduced in Mortal Kombat (2011)! Restored by Raiden during the plot of the game: the man named Kuai Liang is clearly haunted by the memory of his experiences. Sub-Zero endured cybernetic conversion, to being reborn in the Netherrealm as a human revenant under the control of Quan Chi! Finally his secret origin can be told!

Mortal Kombat X #6 goes on sale in all good comic stores Wednesday, May 13th! Note: The print edition contains digital chapters 16-18, written by Shawn Kittelsen and drawn by Daniel Sampere. The cover by Stephen Segovia & Rod Reis features Kotal Kahn and his loyal followers.

Really interesting. All that could be in MKX game storymode.

I think "robust" is being a bit generous, considering how lackluster most felt the in-game story to be.

Exactly: This is necessary story info and should have been in the game.

For a storyline that took place over 25 years, Sub-Zero's portion covers 15 minutes of that time frame.

At the very least, considering how short the chapters are, they could have given a chapter to *every* main character.

Future game storymodes need to have these comic writers take over. Considering how much of a let-down the MKX game story was, the comics on the other hand have been outstanding, and I'm very satisfied with the explanation of how Cyber Sub Zero becomes human again.

On a related note, why are the new characters so shoehorned in?

They're all good concepts on their own, but:

1. Kotal and his crew stage a coop during the Netherealm's invasion of Earthrealm, because Mileena refuses to form diplomatic relations with Earthrealm, but then spends his entire time as Kahn refusing to form diplomatic relations with Earthrealm. They didn't even help with the initial war, even that was the specific reason given for their coop.

2. Almost nothing of note happened in that 20 year gap? Really? Even most of what we see in the comic happens before MKX or around the time of Mileena's insurgence. Why did it even take so long? Why did Quan Chi wait for Mileena to hire Kano to steal the Amulet? Why didn't he hire someone to do that himself?

Well, sure glad I had to wait a month to figure out why Sub-Zero wasn't a cyborg again.

I hate Vogel.
