Legacy Finale to Debut July at Comic-Con International

Final Webisode to Debut July at San Diego Comic-Con!

Posted at 06/07/2011 09:21 AM EDT by

Fans of Mortal Kombat: Legacy will have a long wait for the final episode. Typically released midnight Mondays, the ninth and final episode will be held off for a debut at San Diego Comic-Con International, held July 21-24.

Series director, Kevin Tancharoen, broke the news via Twitter [June 5th], where he also showed off the Cyrax costume helmet that will feature in the finale, earlier in the week [full story].

'Bad News: there will be no new episode next week. Good News: we will premiere the new episode at Comic Con!!!!'

The final episode will feature Shane Warren Jones and Peter Shinkoda as Cyrax and Sektor -- Lin Kuei warriors who are mechanized to become souless cyber-assassins. Introduced to the series in Mortal Kombat 3, the characters spent their early episodes programmed to hunt rogue clansman, Sub-Zero.

The plot of the Legacy finale is expected to detail their transformation from men to cyborgs. The pair will appear in full cyborg form, with designs inspired by the recent Mortal Kombat video game, as seen in trailers.

With details regarding the forecast DVD and Blu-Ray release as yet unknown, an announcement may materialize at Comic-Con. Rumors continue to swirl about a possible second series, or spin-off movie. The first eight episodes are still available online, providing IPv6 program testing does not limit access:

4/12/2011 Episode 1: Jax, Sonya and Kano (12:25)
4/19/2011 Episode 2: Jax, Sonya and Kano (8:49)
4/26/2011 Episode 3: Johnny Cage (11:49)
5/3/2011 Episode 4: Kitana & Mileena (9:10)
5/10/2011 Episode 5: Kitana & Mileena (8:30)
5/17/2011 Episode 6: Raiden (12:58)
5/24/2011 Episode 7: Scorpion & Sub-Zero (10:51)
5/31/2011 Episode 8: Scorpion & Sub-Zero (8:09)

I presume it's still around 10 minutes long?

Maybe if the series was better and worth the wait, I'd be okay with this.

How fucking STUPID.

Why the fuck do I have to wait for some geeky-assed comic nerd convention for this shit?

I guess this is their way of getting more publicity. Whoop dee fucking doo.
Release it online AND THEN AGAIN at comic con if that's the fucking case.

This episode better not be 10 minutes long including the 5 minutes of credits they give. This shit better be 30 minutes, NOT including all those god damn credits at the end.

To everyone b*tchin and whining about it.. the positive is that it'll get played at ComicCon.. which is fantastic news and publicity for the series..

PLUS ComicCon presence suggests that Warner Brothers has a BIG announcement to make.. it won't be just there to promote a dvd or a series 2 of webepisodes.. I think we may find out about a TV Series or a movie at ComicCon

I'll bash your balls with a hot iron if you're wrong.

I'm sorry, that's bull. Saving CYRAX for a series finale? No one knows Cyrax. Everyone knows Raiden, Subby, and Scorpion.

I was seriously up until 2am waiting for this episode to drop, only to see NOW that it won't be out for another month.

And because this is being shown at Comic Con, it better be 30 mins long not including a 4 minute long credit sequence. If not, this series will become the next MK laughingstock.

This.

Come on. We're lucky to get these web series for free. We're lucky to get this series at all. You guys have no right to say 'that's bullshit.' All you negitive people will probably complain about the qualitiy of the video anyway. This year has been very good to Mortal Kombat. Just consider this something else to look forward too.

GREAT call. Seriously, some people forget this series was made for less than most tv series have for one 22min episode.. It's really sad to read the fan boys who are complaining about the most miniscule things in this series.. or the guys who watch manga and think they can speak better Japanese than was in the Scorpion/ SubZero episode.. or complain about the Edenia scenes. I think Kevin actually gets MK, unlike his predecssors, and has assembled an amazing cast to work on it

To that person who said MK will be a laughing stock if its not 30mins.. i've never been to ComicCon, but don't remember 30min reveals being there.. plus Kevin only found out a few days ago it'll be there, so doubt it'll be longer than 15mins.

I think we can understand that part. Its the fact that they waited until the last minute to tell us. Couldn't they tacked on a message at the end of last episode before the credits rolled?

There must be something really awesome happening in this next episode. It would be really fantastic if they also announce a t.v. show or the new movie.

And anyway, I thought there were 10 episodes, not 9?

I'm just praying for a robot deathmatch to take place, that's as low as my expectations will be....Then again, I always leave my expectations low to avoid major disappointment, hah.

No, KTANCH always said 9 eps.. Machinima said 10 i think

And from Kevin's twitter, as I said, it sounds like WB didn't tell him until Sunday as he was still talking about this week with Cyrax and Spider.. there are 3 robots in the episode.. only 2 are in the games, so it sounds like we will get the deathmatch and it'll be bye bye Hydro :)

The Bad News?: A months wait for the finale
The Good News?: Most likely an announcement for a film or full tv series

Since the series has done okay in ratings, hopefully that's the case.

Quite sad. But I think it worth the waiting. From the second half the series really become to show it's strength, starting form Raiden episode, that was one of the best in the series so far. So, I'll wait.

LOL, at fanboys who act like Comic Con is insignificant event and that's KT / NRS MUST show them that episode.
