Injustice 2: 10 Characters NetherRealm Must Consider For DLC

4. Booster Gold

Why have a Johnny Cage cameo when you can have Booster Gold? The two are remarkably similar in personality type, with both having witty banter and a desire for money. Booster Gold is often seen as a joke by the other superheroes, so introducing him into the otherwise serious world of Injustice 2 could be great.

Whether he's portrayed as he was at the start of his career- only caring about himself- or shown to be a genuine hero, Booster Gold has a lot to offer in terms of interesting interactions with the other heroes.

In terms of gameplay, Booster Gold would probably play similarly to Johnny Cage or The Flash, utilising hand-to-hand combat and different martial art techniques. The different gadgets that Booster stole from the museum give him access to his powers, and these could be utilised in gameplay too. The flight ring could grant him temporary flight like Ermac and his wrist blasters could allow him to have range on top of his fighting ability.

The most interesting possibility comes from his ability to time travel. Although this would be near impossible to implement into a fighting game, perhaps he could speed up or slow down time as his Character Trait.

Booster might be a bit of a joke, but that might be exactly what Injustice 2 needs.
