‘Injustice 2’ Fighter Pack 2 Internet Reactions: Fans Get Hot For Hellboy, Hate On Raiden
As you’re no-doubt already aware, Injustice 2 just revealed its second back of DLC characters as [...]
Raiden
It seems like fans aren't particularly thrilled Raiden is joining the cast. It could be because he was very obviously teased a couple months back, so his addition wasn't really a surprise, or maybe it's because, well…he's Raiden. Raiden isn't anybody's favorite Mortal Kombat character.
I think I'm more hype for the new ARMS fighter than I am for Raiden in Injustice 2.

Another issue folks seem to have with Raiden, is that he's not Static Shock. If NetherRealm wanted to add an electricity-themed fighter, why not a DC Universe-based one? This isn't a Mortal Kombat game, after all.
Why is Raiden in Injustice 2? @noobde . Static Shock would have been a 100000000x better choice.. why just why #injustice2

Black Manta
Reaction to Black Manta has generally been positive, although the amount of chatter he's generating is limited. Again, we've known Black Manta was coming for a while, and he isn't most people's favorite DC character.
Out of the three new DLC characters, Black Manta is hands down my favorite! HE LOOKS SO GOOD!! #injustice2 pic.twitter.com/aPXoS2Asld

A common complain amongst Injustice 2 players is that his new Fighter Pack only contains one actual DC Comics character, although Hellboy has hung out with Batman and other DC characters over the years. Warning, this guy gets a bit colorful with the language.

Hellboy
Unsurprisingly, the Internet is pretty dang hyped about the addition of Hellboy. Not only was he a huge surprise, but, come on, Hellboy is awesome.

I love how the Hellboy character model is literally just Mike Mignola artwork in 3D. #injustice2 pic.twitter.com/lOz1mkMTxr
