Last week, it was revealed that the next DLC character for NetherRealm Studios Injustice: Gods Among Us would be none other than General Zod. This of course tied in nicely with the release of this Summer’s biggest film, Man of Steel.

Today, the first trailer for the character has been released. I’ve been addicted to Injustice for quite some time now, and Zod certainly looks like a formidable opponent. Man of Steel fans will also enjoy a film-inspired skin for Superman, with both pieces of DLC releasing on July 2nd.

Watch the trailer and check out the new skin below, and be sure to let us know what you think!

Injustice: Gods Among Us introduces a new franchise in the fighting game genre and a brand new story created in collaboration between NetherRealm Studios, DC Entertainment and comic book writers Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti. As the story unfolds, players will experience the power, gadgetry and unparalleled strength of some the most popular DC Comics heroes and villains, such as Batman, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, Aquaman, The Joker and others, as they engage in epic battles in a world where the line between good and evil is blurred.

This is a great movie tie-in.

Last night’s Conan had the hilarious host reviewing the new DC brawler, Injustice: Gods Among Us. The game released back in April, and has been garnering plenty of acclaim ever since. Fighting games, by nature, beg for DLC, and Injustice has had its fair share of it. Characters (Batgirl and Mortal Kombat‘s Scorpion so far), costume packs, and more have already been released, and last night’s Conan revealed the next character you’ll be adding to your roster: Zod.

No word yet on when Zod will be available, but seeing as Man of Steel is releasing today, I’d expect it to happen soon. The character looks like a formidable opponent, and sports a very cool finishing move, so it should please fans of both the character and game alike. Watch Conan’s review/reveal below, and let us know what you think!

Following a short viral campaign for the film, which included a Kryptonian timer counting down to the release, a second full-length trailer has debuted for Zack Snyder’s highly-anticipated Man Of Steel.The trailer delivers an even better look at what is sure to be one of the biggest releases of the summer.

In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twentysomething journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone’s imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question – Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as “Superman,” not only to shine as the world’s last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves.

Man Of Steel soars into theaters June 14, 2013.

Originally it was believed that the static on ManOfSteel.com clearing up was leading to the release of a second full length trailer for the Zack Snyder directed film. Turns out it was leading to a viral video that also debuted at the MTV Movie Awards and began a timer located at IWillFindHim.com. This timer is currently counting down and will end at 5PM on the west coast (8PM EST), which just happens to be the same time that Warner Bros. will be debuting footage from the film at CinemaCon. This will most likely mean the debut of the new 3-minute trailer (which was classified a few days ago) trailer for the highly anticipated film hitting the net. So, you may just want to clear your schedules around that time tomorrow.

In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry Cavill) is a young twenty-something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond his imagination. Transported years ago to Earth from Krypton, a highly advanced, distant planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question ‘Why am I here?’ Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Diane Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner), Clark discovers having extraordinary abilities means making difficult decisions. When the world is in dire need of stability, an even greater threat emerges. Clark must become a Man of Steel, to protect the people he loves and shine as the world’s beacon of hope – Superman.

Remember Zod? He’s back! In toy form.

That’s right, Man of Steel baddie Zod has just has his big reveal, though likely not how Warner Brothers would have wanted. Two unfinished commercials depicting tie-in toys have been leaked online, and of course give us our first look at Zod, and an apparent robot army (I wonder if that will make it into the film).

Unfinished is a key word of course. These leaked ads are using footage from Superman Returns, and as these toys aren’t launching until Spring, there’s still a lot of time to flesh them out. Also, they’re toys, so it may not be an very accurate representation (I doubt the real Zod’s arms will be this stretchy)!

Check them out below! The first one doesn’t really look to have anything to do with the film, but look like pretty badass toys anyways.

Will you be picking up any of these?
