Injustice 2: 15 Guest Characters NetherRealm Must Include

13. The Mask

While it's true that Jim Carrey's popularised portrayal of the Dark Horse comic is beyond iconic, it may be apt to reflect on The Mask's source material when constructing a persona for Injustice 2.

I say this because The Mask, in reality, is a far departure from the carefree portrayal offered in the 1994 film of the same name. The actual comic book, written by Mike Richardson for Dark Horse Comics in the late '80s and early '90s, depicts a much darker story, though Ipkiss himself is no less adept at dispatching his foes in a myriad of creative and indeed violent ways.

The Mask would be absolutely perfect for Injustice 2, solely for the reason that no other character could possibly replicate his fighting style.

He's cartoony, creative and cruel all at once; not even The Joker could compete.
