If you’re a fan of the comics, you’d know that Plastic Man is not only an underrated and hilarious character when written well, he’s also one of the most powerful heroes in the DC universe. One of those characters is Patrick “Eel” O’Brian AKA Plastic Man, of all people.
INJUSTICE 3 INVINCIBLE MOVIE
There are several twists, but what I love most about the Injustice animated movie is how it puts the spotlight and gives screentime to unexpected characters. Even if you’re familiar with the games and comics, chances are that you still won’t see what’s coming.ĭifferent characters live and die (obviously, I won’t spoil who). However, after the tragic event that causes Superman to turn evil takes place, things turn to unfamiliar and new territory, in a very good way.

That’s not a spoiler because the trailers have already confirmed it as such. The beginning and catalyst for why Superman becomes a ruthless dictator are essentially the same as the games and comics. I was pleasantly surprised when the movie suddenly veered off the trajectory of what I expected to happen based on the source materials. It would be more apt to describe the Injustice animated movie as an alternate version of what happens in the games and comics. It doesn’t just rehash the events of the source materials. Short answer: This is not simply a direct adaptation of the original games or the prequel comics. Now, Warner Bros Animation has adapted Injustice into a standalone animated feature film, which is more inspired by the comics as it serves as a prequel to the events of the game. The premise of Injustice is simple what if Superman breaks bad and finally lets loose? What if he realizes that he can bring world peace through sheer force and power alone? What if he no longer believes in Truth, Justice and the American Way? It’s DC Comics’ turn for a civil war. NetherRealm Studios gave us that with 2013’s Injustice Gods Among Us and 2016’s Injustice 2 fighting games, as well as the prequel comics by DC Comics. Something that cleverly subverts or deconstructs comic book tropes. After more than a decade of superhero movies and the MCU, viewers want something different.
INJUSTICE 3 INVINCIBLE SERIES
Look at Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys TV series and Invincible animated series. Ah, the idea of an evil Superman or evil Supermen is garnering a lot of attention these days.
