Batman
When Bruce Wayne's parents were gunned done right in front of him, he vowed revenge. When he grew up, he became Batman, the Detective. Fighting with a group of high tech gadgets, he refuses to let others be hurt like his parents and himself. He is obsessed with stopping crime, and will go to any length to ensure justice is done. The character is partially based on the movies, animated series, and various videogames, with a little of the old live action show for laughs. Strategy: A good mix of distance and melee, though his melee is a little better. His bombs and batarangs are fairly slow, so don't use either expecting massive damage. Staying in close to projectile characters can result in massive damage if Bats can use the Cape Slice, hitting the enemy and reflecting a projectile at the same time!

Superman
As a child, the baby that would be known as Clark was launched off his dying planet, Krypton. Due to the differences between Earth and his home planet, he became incredibly strong, could fly, and was nearly invincible. Because he was raised as a good old farm boy, he now fights crime with little or no motive. He works at the Daily Planet newspaper to make a living. Superman is a god, which makes him one of the most boring super heroes of all time. Strategy: Arg. I tried to make Superman as powerful as I could to get his godish powers right. Anyone who would lose while using him sucks. He can combo just about anything together. Plus, nearly all of his moves are useable in mid-air. Coupled with his medium size and his powerful super armor, Superman is nearly unbeatable, unless you can find some Kryptonite. Combos: Similar Fighters: Cyclops, Rouge, Hulk Stats: Power: 7 Energy: 7 Defense: 7 Speed: 7 Weakness: Kryptonite Ratio: 3 Size: M Drain: Super Armor 2 Special Moves: Heat Vision*: Fires a laser beam from his eyes, either straight ahead or up-forward. 3 hits (F)(A,down or forward) Freezing Breath: Breaths out a cloud of ice, that causes some damage and stuns the enemy.

Batman (Beyond)
Bruce Wayne, the multibillionaire, recruits a normal high school student named Terry McGuiness. Using his incredible wealth, Bruce creates a special suit. Terry becomes the new Batman. Unlike his predecessor, Terry's suit is full of useful gadgets. Terry is very independent and doesn't like taking orders from Wayne. However, he slowly learns that the old guy knows what he's talking about. Strategy: A quick, fairly small guy with high defense. His attacks may be a little weak, but don't be afraid to jump into melee combat with most other characters. His specials and hypers are a little weak, so don't rely on them too heavily. Battle Plan: Watch for his special and hyper attacks. Most of them do not have a large coverage area, so they can be dodged by all but the slowest of enemies. Combos: Similar To: Guile, Charlie, Leona Stats: Power: 4 Energy: 5 Defense*: 7 Speed: 6 Ratio: 2 Special Moves: Batarang*: A bat-shaped boomerang fires out of Terry's wrist (A)(S) Bat Claw Combo*: A series of kicks and claw attacks.

Taunt: Does the crappy cloaking effect. He is still plainly visible Victory: The bat mobile picks up. Top |
Green Lantern
The Green Lantern was picked by a magical ring to be a defender of Earth's region of space. His ring has the power to create just about anything. Since there have been several different versions of the Green Lantern, the character is generic. Strategy: Green Lantern has many powerful, wide area specials. The downside is that they have a lengthy recovery time. Battle Plan: Stick to the Lantern like glue. His basic punch and kick attacks are pretty much worthless. If you can keep from using his specials and hypers, he is in big trouble. Combos: Similar To:Ice Man, Magneto Stats: Power: 2 Energy*: 7 Defense: 4 Speed: 6 Strength: P Weakness: S Ratio: 2 Special Moves: Ring Punch*: A large fist is shot out of the ring (A)(P) Emerald Beam*: Shoots a beam of energy upward at a 45 degree angle (A,downward)(P) Emerald Crash*: A ball falls out of the sky (A)(P) Ring Shield: A shield appears and reflects projectiles Emerald Spike: A spike bursts out of the ground (P) Grabs the enemy in his ring-energy and crushes them Bonus: Flying Launcher: An uppercut with a green fist from his ring Hyper Attacks: Emerald Jail: Screens of power radiate out of Lantern. 16 hits (P) Green Monster*: Fires a large beam of energy. 18 hits (P) Night Lantern: Shoots a green ball (C) turns into a large green lantern and explodes.(P) Enter: Ring Flashes Taunt: Ring Flashes Victory: Really Big ring flash Special Block: Creates a greenish shield to block.
