‘Mortal Kombat X’s Blanche Gets The ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Poster Treatment by Ed Boon

As many of you have likely seen by now, Avengers: Endgame has a bevy of new character posters that were recently released to amp up the hype for the upcoming film. We can see portraits of our favorite heroes with the phrase “Avenge the Fallen” written across them, only the “a” in “Fallen” is stylized like the Avengers logo. Well, the Internet being the Internet, this has obviously become a meme. Not one to shy away from memes, or jokes in general, Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon joined in on the fun to pay respects to none other than Mortal Kombat X‘s Blanche.

You may remember Blanche as the throwable old lady featured in Mortal Kombat X‘s Outworld Marketplace stage, where she can actually be picked up and thrown as a weapon. NetherRealm Studios implemented an updater later on that would grant players the ability to use Blanche as a Fatality, which led to a mountain of laughter. That said, Ed Boon recently tweeted an image of Blanche lying on the ground in a pool of her own blood with the “Avenge the Fallen” slogan written across it.

This is certainly hilarious to anyone who remembers throwing Blanche in Mortal Kombat X and have the image of her lying on the ground seared into their brains. However, everyone seemed to have a good time with the meme.

Here’s to hoping Blanche makes her triumphant return in Mortal Kombat 11 when it drops on April 23rd for Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. For more on the upcoming game:

“Mortal Kombat is back and better than ever in the next evolution of the iconic franchise. The all new Custom Character Variations give you unprecedented control to customize the fighters and make them your own. The new graphics engine showcasing every skull-shattering, eye-popping moment, brings you so close to the fight you can feel it. And featuring a roster of new and returning Klassic Fighters, Mortal Kombat‘s best in class cinematic story mode continues the epic saga over 25 years in the making.”
