Alien Helmets And Assless Chaps: The Best Black Manta Gear In 'Injustice 2'
Black Manta has finally joined the Injustice 2 roster. Obviously we were excited to go hands-on [...]
Black Manta's Boss Mode
This design looks like a final boss. This Black Manta getup wouldn't be out of place in the final showdown of an epic Square Enix RPG or horror film. The red shader definitely has a lot to do with it, but we also can't get over those freaking tubes. What is he hiding in there? That's way too much girth to be a simple airflow solution. I'm thinking that's where he stores his lunch.
Then we have what I call the hammer-head:
This design is a little more subtle, but still really cool. The next two designs take things in a very, very different direction. We're going gold, and we're going ass-out!

All right, before we get to the NSFW Manta butts, let's take a moment to appreciate just how cool the golden tournament shader can look when you have the right gear equipped:
This is the type of Black Manta I've wanted to see since launch. This looks like a character with a serious ax to grind; someone who is aiming to take out Aquaman and usurp the Atlantean throne. Can you picture that dude sitting on the literal throne with a twisted-looking trident in hand? I think it suits him.
Now for the strange part. Multiple users on Reddit have noticed that Black Manta's golden shader, when paired with certain armor, makes him appear to be wearing assless chaps. See for yourself:
Look. At that. Butt. We know that Black Manta is canonically a person of color, so this really doesn't even make sense, but look at that and tell me that it doesn't straight-up look like a butt hanging out and staring you in the face. Best Black Manta loadout or worst? You decide.
