Man this comic is sounding more and more amazing!

Even if it pisses me off that characters won't stay dead for even a single game, when the storyline is good enough I'll begrudgingly accept it :)

Hopefully the game can match or improve on the quality!! glasses

If it were Reptile, I'd be inclined to believe there'd be a bit of green.

Sockie mentioned his eyes looking odd in the other thread too; personally I'm wondering if he's come back to life with more of his Enenra side to him present and he's been altered somewhat; I've tweeted Kittelsen and asked.

I think it was the mask that made me think of Reptile. I soon as I saw it, it had a MK9 Reptile vibe to it. If it is Smoke I'm wondering who's controlling who?

Like is siding with Kotal a willing action of Smoke or the Enenra?

Raiden cut himself with the Kamidogu of Order.

Hmmm. Order.......

Dark Raiden is coming back, isn't he?

Not that I'm complaining, it's about the only logical path for him to take at this point with all the shit he's pulled lately . tongue

Fair point. tongue


That said i want to see 50yo Sonya in the game and playable so bad, but i'm not stessing too much for now. I think Cassie lacks Sonya's moves so they can bring Sonya back in future games.

I also want Mileena playable, so they better not fuck up with that.


Me too. Seeing older Kung Lao really makes me want older Sonya. I'd say if she doesn't make the roster at first she'll be DLC. Same with Mileena though I'd be very surprised if she wasn't there from the get go.


I just find it upsetting that some people are saying how badass old Kung Lao looks, or how badass would mature Cage be, yet say things like "Nobody wants to see Sonya with saggy boobs, wrinkles and grey hair" sleep when she would be the most badass "mature" female in fighting games.

I doubt Mileena won't be in, too. But many people are freaking about how Kitana being in negatively affect Mileena's chances at being playable, when Mileena had a great chance at being in with or without Kitana imo.


Yeah Mileena had a strong chance with or without Kitana and I think it's only stronger now since Mileena didn't show a whole lot of interest in Kitana in the last game anyway. She just wanted to please Shao and sieze power. Maybe that's why she's involved with Reiko. Their shared "enthusiasm" for Shao Kahn - maybe they're working together to try bring him back.

As for Sonya, Boon recently talked about how the female characters in MK are "empowered" which I don't buy, but keeping Sonya alive and maturing her and not trading her in for a younger model (which is what it looks like so far) would definitely help. Cassie does seem to have her own unique...ish playstyle but she does have Sonya's Air Throw and her MK9 beta Arc Kick and her takedown. Sonya's influence is there but there's definitely still plenty of her own moves left for herself if she does make the cut. grin

You're absolutely right about the mask; I was thinking the same and it'd make sense for Reptile to side with Kotal, methinks. The overall demeanor looks menacing. It'd be hilarious if this turned out to be a giant coloring error or something.

This is why I love being a Smoke fan; always mystery. I remember the endless debate when he first showed up in the Deception teaser vid and nobody could figure out who it was. :D

My god....this comic is so fucking amazing so far. I love how clearly immersed the author is in the lore.

Not sure how I feel about Reiko and Mileena hooking up though. I wanted her and Baraka to make a real go of the conquest thing

He probably would, she's died before! Twice. However briefly. It would be odd though, to have Sonya survive MK9 while most of the other good guys died only to bring them all back and kill her off before MKX. But I'm sure if she doesn't make the initial cut she'll be high priority for DLC.

As for Reiko and Mileena, it seems like such an odd pairing. I'm very interested in seeing how they interact. Reiko always struck me as being very calm, cool and collected. Very debonair and quite reserved. Well, based on what little screentime he's actually had. Mileena on the other hand has such a....colourful....personality. They could make for a great comedy duo. Or maybe Reiko's moulding Mileena into the more calculating opportunist we knew her as in Deception.

So many questions!
