* SecretCharacter: Subverted in that it's not a secret that he's in the game, but you need to win 1 Ranked match online in order to unlock the Yellow Lantern costume. Choosing the costume [[MeaningfulRename causes the announcer at the character select screen to say]] "Yellow Lantern" instead of Green. There is also a different BattleIntro, victory scene, and the setting of his Super Move changes from Oa to Qward. Despite having the exact same moveset as the Green Lantern, these cosmetic changes effectively make Yellow Lantern his own character.

Even though the trope is Green Lantern Ring, changing it so it says \"Qwardian\" on the page means it should be alphabetized accordingly.


* [[spoiler:KnowWhenToFoldEm: Faced with the main universe Superman and a {{depower}}ed Sinestro of his own universe, Yellow Lantern wisely decides to just hand over his own Sinestro Corps ring.

* LightIsNotGood: Wields the yellow light of fear.
* LockAndLoadMontage: His BattleIntro does the closest equivalent for a Yellow Lantern: charging up with his Power Battery.
* MeaningfulRename: He's the only playable character to have a different name based on what costume he's wearing. Appropriately, this Hal Jordan lacks the courage that defines the heroic one.
* NotSoDifferent[=/=]{{Hypocrite}}[=/=]TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget: He turned against Sinestro after it became apparant he was keeping the peace on Korugar through fear. As part of the New Regime, Hal does that same thing and even gains a yellow power ring of the Sinestro Corps.
* PaletteSwap: His Sinestro Corps uniform is just a re-skinned version of his secondary Green Lantern costume.

!!!Voiced by: George Newbern

* TheAce: He is generally considered to be the most powerful and [[IncorruptiblePurePureness most]] [[NiceGuy moral]] superhero, but in the events of the prequel he becomes a…
** BrokenAce: Courtesy of the Joker.
* ActorAllusion[=/=]{{Expy}}: Thanks to the {{DCAU}}, this is not the first time George Newbern has voiced a fascist Superman.
* [[spoiler:AndIMustScream: His Regime self gets trapped in the Phantom Zone at the end of the Classic Battle ladder. What makes it worse is that all the memories leading to his FaceHeelTurn, including Joker's speech and the graves of his family, all flash before him before he is sucked into the Zone by a demonic entity. Afterwards, the player is given a shot of Regime Supes screaming while drifting away.]]
* AntiVillain: A mix of WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds and HeWhoFightsMonsters. He wants a world without crime and he'll use any means necessary to achieve that end.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: As the leader of the New Regime and referenced in his BattleIntro, which has his GasMaskMooks backing off and saying that Superman’s “got this”.
* {{Badass}}: Like regular Superman, he's the strongest character on his Earth.
** BadassArmFold: In his victory cutscene.
** BadassCape: Attached by his logo, no less.
* BigBad: Of the game's story.
* BeardOfSorrow: A mild case. He briefly grows a stubble after [[spoiler:the deaths of Lois Lane, her unborn child, and all of Metropolis and his killing the Joker.]] It doesn't stick.
* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: Went from trying to protect people and stop psychopaths that would kill millions to being just that, and much worse.
* BelievingTheirOwnLies: He justifies his [[spoiler:killing the Joker]] by saying that it was [[HeWhoFightsMonsters "one death to save millions of lives"]] but anyone who witnessed this act knows he was motivated by {{Revenge}} for everything [[spoiler:the clown]] had done, not altruism.
* BrightIsNotGood: Following his FaceHeelTurn, he still wears red and blue. Notably though with his secondary costume the red and blue are a little darker in color.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: He retains his iconic logo.
* CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler:The death of his wife and his unborn child at his hands and the destruction of Metropolis]].
* [[spoiler:[[TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget The Dark Side Will Cause]] InsaneTrollLogic: After his VillainousBreakdown, Superman apparently believes that free-spirited reporter Lois Lane, were she alive, would ''totally'' support the "peace" his Regime brought - through military assault on helpless civilians, including unleashing Doomsday, and Superman personally cutting down a crowded suspension bridge with his HeatVision. Oh, [[MoralEventHorizon and the murder of a teenager-at-oldest Shazam for daring to think this was a tad overkill.]]]]
** [[spoiler:The good Superman points out that Lois would be disgusted and afraid of Regime Superman's actions. Speaking of which, Regime Superman believes that the good Superman's Lois would totally approve of him killing her Superman and bringing her over to his world.]]
* DisproportionateRetribution: [[spoiler:His VillainousBreakdown in a nutshell. He decides to unleash his military against the "ungrateful" civilian populace, and when Shazam tries to call him out on this, [[MoralEventHorizon he kills him]].]]
* [[DoNotTauntCthulhu Do Not Taunt Superman]]: Seriously, ''don't''.
* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: When Batman points out that Superman's scaring people, Superman justifies himself by saying that the bad guys ''should'' be scared, not seeming to understand that Batman meant [[BewareTheSuperman people in general.]]
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Abandons his default armored look in favor of his secondary costume after becoming the New Regime's leader, which is more armored and hard-lined. It even changes his intro and outro from his heroic trademarks to reinforcing GasMaskMooks and demanding his downed opponent to [[KneelBeforeZod kneel before him.]]
* EvilCounterpart: To the version of Superman that never had a FaceHeelTurn.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: The main impetus of the game's plot is Superman adopting an "ends justify the means" philosophy after some great tragedy that kills millions, namely the destruction of Metropolis.
** BewareTheSuperman: '''Literally.''' He even tells [[spoiler:good Superman]] that fear "is the only thing people understand."
** DespairEventHorizon: Seems to have crossed it.
** EvilFormerFriend: To Batman and any other superheroes that will choose to oppose his actions.
** EvilOverlord: Though he starts out as HeWhoFightsMonsters for five years up until the game proper, his willingness to [[spoiler:publicly execute the main universe Batman]] paints him in this light and discards even his KnightTemplar status, and [[spoiler:murdering Shazam]] [[MoralEventHorizon places him firmly in evil territory for good.]]
** HeWhoFightsMonsters[=/=]KnightTemplar: Determined to put a permanent end to remorseless, mass-murdering villains. [[spoiler:He starts by straight up ''[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness murdering]]'' the Joker. By impaling him with his ''arm''.]]
** KnightTemplar: "Disobedient children will be punished."
** LoveMakesYouEvil: Namely the deaths of [[spoiler:his wife Lois Lane and their unborn child.]]
** NotSoDifferent[=/=]{{Hypocrite}}: He's always been a GoodCounterpart to General Zod, but now in this game he has not only become a Kryptonian who rules over humans with an iron fist, but when he wins a match in his alternate costume, he tells his opponent to [[IronicEcho "Kneel before me..."]]
** SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: In the New Regime trailer, he flatly refuses to "hold the moral high ground at the expense of peace", a marked change from [[ThouShaltNotKill what he used to represent.]]
** WellIntentionedExtremist: Doesn't want the tragedy caused by the Joker to happen ever again.
** TragicVillain: So, so very much.
** UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: His speech in the New Regime trailer fits this to a T.
** VillainWithGoodPublicity: Owing to the fact that he rules the world and is… well… [[TheParagon Superman]], his peace is widely held. This is shown rather deliberately when [[spoiler:upon hearing the complaints of his people after murdering Insurgency!Lex Luthor, it is only that moment that destroys his reputation]].
* [[spoiler:FinalBoss: In Story Mode and the Classic Battle ladder.]]
** [[spoiler:MirrorBoss: To the GoodCounterpart Superman from the heroic universe.]]
* GoodHairEvilHair: In contrast to the famous "one loose curl" style, his hair is all slicked back.
* HannibalLecture[=/=]TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives one to Batman in the prequel comic where he accuses him of [[FriendlyEnemy loving the Joker and mourning him instead of Metropolis]] and that he needed Joker in his life and that that's why he never killed him. On top of this he also tries to play him up as a terrible parental figure to Nightwing and Robin, which is enough to prompt Batman to punch him.
* [[spoiler:HumiliationConga: Batman's team manages to teleport away from him just in time, escaping not only him but all the forces he amassed at Stryker's Island. Knowing that the Watchtower was the only way for them to do so, he starts flying towards it... only for it to explode, thanks to Deathstroke's sabotage. Immediately afterwards, he is challenged by a kryptonite-armed [[TheMole Lex Luthor]]. The only reason Lex doesn't use the weapon is the intervention of Shazam. Superman kills Lex, but not before receiving a WhatTheHellHero FinalSpeech that convinces him to listen to the people and hear their dissent. VillainousBreakdown ensues.]]
* [[spoiler:[[ILetGwenStacyDie I Killed Gwen Stacy]]: He accidentally killed Lois Lane when under the influence of Scarecrow's fear gas. When his Batman tries to reason with him and use the death of his parents to crime as a comparison, Superman retorts that "you weren't the gun."]]
* [[spoiler:ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: How he kills the Joker. With his bare arm no less.]]
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Mercilessly subverted. The Joker’s evil manages to push him over the edge, and Joker even mocks Batman for believing that Superman fits this trope.
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: [[spoiler:Killing the Joker for the destruction of Metropolis and murder of his family.]] Lampshaded by Batman later when he accurately points out that Superman's [[spoiler:trying to justify one murder]] is just the first step.
** [[spoiler:Taken to InASingleBound levels when he decides to unleash the full force of his military against Gotham and Metropolis [[DisproportionateRetribution because he thinks they're ungrateful for his "peaceful" rule]].]]
* KickTheDog: He does this a lot after his FaceHeelTurn.
** His first major comes when he punches out Green Lantern and steals his ring (which would have killed him had he not given it back at the last minute) just to make a point.
** His completely uncalled-for verbal attack on Batman in Issue 11 of the prequel comic, playing him up as a horrible parental figure to Nightwing and Robin to the extent that Batman punches him.
** A particularly vicious one in issue 12 of the prequel comic where he [[spoiler:dumps Atlantis in the Sahara Desert]].
** Another particularly vicious one in issue 13 of the prequel comic where he and Wonder Woman brutally take down Galaxor (a guy who was trying to protect his country from Superman’s dictatorship) and ''break his spine''.
** [[spoiler:Murdering Shazam for [[DisproportionateRetribution trying to call Superman out on how far he's fallen]].]]
** [[spoiler:During the attack on Metropolis, while most of the other Regime metas are seen fighting the heroes, Regime Superman primarily concerns himself with killing civilians and destroying escape routes.]]
* KneelBeforeZod: His victory scene. You know he's gone to the dark side when he pulls this.
* LastOfHisKind: Subverted. Though he has the reputation of being "The Last Son of Krypton", there are in fact several other surviving Kryptonians...[[KneelBeforeZod One of whom]] [[NotSoDifferent he is now channeling]].
* LightningBruiser: Both "faster than a speeding bullet" and "more powerful than a locomotive".
* MeetTheNewBoss: One of the first things he does after ending a dictatorship in a third-world country [[{{Hypocrite}} is begin his own... on a worldwide scale.]]
* NeverMyFault: He begins to show signs of this after having a FaceHeelTurn. When Batman points out how he's scaring people, Superman says he learned it from Batman, and also justifies his [[spoiler:killing the Joker]] as "one death to save millions" when it was obviously motivated by {{Revenge}} and not altruism. Batman even points out how the latter is just the first step in a slippery slope. When Aquaman calls him out on becoming a KnightTemplar, Superman denies it. The game proper only gives more examples of this, with him repeatedly refusing to admit how far he's fallen and even at one point claiming that Insurgency Batman is responsible.
* NotDistractedByTheSexy: When [[TheVamp Wonder Woman]] comes into his command station in a dress with AbsoluteCleavage, he doesn't bat an eye, though even Yellow Lantern makes a comment on how she looks. This is likely related to his StartOfDarkness.
* ParentalSubstitute: [[spoiler:To Damian Wayne following his FaceHeelTurn.]]
* PayEvilUntoEvil: After his FaceHeelTurn, this becomes his new policy, and his first victim is [[spoiler:The Joker himself]].
** JudgeJuryAndExecutioner: Atlantis' archivist even describes him as this when talking to [[spoiler:good Aquaman]].
* PuttingOnTheReich: His New Regime gives off this vibe.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Has glowing red eyes when displayed on the Future City monitors.
* ShouldersOfDoom: His Regime costume has rather prominent shoulder guard which add to the Regime leader vibe.
* SNKBoss: As the FinalBoss of Classic Mode, he's generally faster, stronger and has more stamina than every other Opponent before.
* SuperheroesWearCapes: Subverted, since he's not a hero anymore.
* SuperpowerLottery: As one might expect from the Man of Steel.
** {{Flight}}: He doesn't even ''stand''; [[PowerFloats he hovers just above the ground]].
** HeatVision: Used liberally throughout his moveset.
** MadeOfIron: Man of Steel after all.
** SuperBreath: Which becomes [[HarmlessFreezing freeze breath]] when Enhanced.
** SuperStrength: Enough to [[MeteorMove punch someone into space]].
* [[spoiler:TailorMadePrison: He gets locked up in one that simulates the light of a red sun, greatly weakening his powers, [[SequelHook though he can still mildly use his heat vision]].]]
* ThouShaltNotKill: He used to beat out ''Batman'' as the greatest advocate of this trope, but after the Joker sent him past the DespairEventHorizon, he abandoned this mentality and [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope promptly]] [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice killed]] [[spoiler:the Joker.]]
* {{Took a Level in|Jerkass}} {{Superdickery}}: After his FaceHeelTurn, as the prequel comic shows. And while by the events of the game proper, he's fairly polite and well-mannered, [[spoiler:its a facade, one that [[VillainousBreakdown comes apart at the seams]] during his HumiliationConga.]]
* TragicHero: Was one the greatest hero, but the Joker's cruelty sent him past the DespairEventHorizon and into HeWhoFightsMonsters territory.
* UnderwearOfPower: His secondary costume has a very stylized version that dips low in front, goes higher up the torso to square around the hip, and additional portions extend down the inner thighs.
* TheUnfettered: Though he used to be [[TheFettered the opposite trope]], he became this once he started his New Regime.
* UnreliableNarrator: When addressing the world, he claims that Batman was an accomplice in the destruction of Metropolis and that this "drove him insane with guilt". Of course, in Superman's mind, [[FromACertainPointOfView Batman is responsible due to having never killed the Joker before his sending Superman off the deep end.]]
* [[spoiler:VillainousBreakdown: At the end of his HumiliationConga, Superman takes a moment to listen to the population's dissent and... doesn't take it well. As in, views them as ungrateful for his "peace" and decides that a military assault on them would bring them in line.]]
* WeCanRuleTogether: Makes this offer to Batman in Issue 11 of the prequel comic.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Oh, boy. His FreudianExcuse is bad enough: [[spoiler:his wife and unborn kid both die by his own hand, and he inadvertently kills millions of people]]. Even Batman admits that he would probably have done much of what Superman did if he were in the same situation.
* [[spoiler:WouldHurtAChild: He's well aware that Regime Shazam is, at best, a teenager in a man's body, calling him Billy to his face in their last confrontation. However, he brutally murders him for questioning orders, and holds no remorse whatsoever for doing so.]]

!!!Voiced by: Creator/KevinConroy

* ActionDad: Robin isn't just his protegee, but also his biological son. [[spoiler:Sadly though, he disowns him.]]
* AnimalMotif: Bats, as you might assume.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: [[spoiler:Defied. In the ending, it's mentioned that Batman has been offered a place in politics for helping to get rid of KnightTemplar Superman, but Batman declines, saying that he doesn't belong in politics.]]
* {{Badass}}: Among his titles are "The Dark Knight" and "World's Greatest Detective."
** BadassBaritone: As per having his [[Creator/KevinConroy traditional voice actor.]]
** BadassCape: [[AwesomeYetPractical Practical, too]]; it's integrated into a parry move.
** BadassNormal: One of the "Gadget" type characters.
** BadassTeacher: Formerly to Robin and Nightwing.
* BattleBoomerang: Utilizes his traditional Batarangs.
* BattleCouple: Briefly with Catwoman.
* BigGood: He's leading [[LaResistance the resistance]] to stop Superman's reign of terror.
* CoolCar: The Batmobile.
** CarFu: His Supermove involves keeping his opponent stunned until the Batmobile runs them over.
* CrazyPrepared: He makes this trope an art form. To give a specific example for ''this'' Batman: [[spoiler:He hid an anti-Superman weapon in the walls of the Batcave, disguised as a regular rock, filled the walls with lead so Superman could never see it and, to make sure he didn't do it on a whim, locked it with the biosigns of Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Green Arrow and himself as the key.]] The last part backfired somewhat when [[spoiler:Superman killed Green Arrow and the others joined him in his tyranny, so he had to get get their alternate universe counterparts to assist.]]
* DarkIsNotEvil: He's a scary guy, no question, but he's working to topple Superman's Regime.
* DatingCatwoman: Implied to have happened for a time, but following Catwoman's joining the Regime, he gives up on her.
* [[spoiler:DespairEventHorizon: He almost crosses this, but his alternate self pulls him back from it.]]
* EnemyMine: With Deathstroke and Harley Quinn, though the latter has kind of sort of had a HeelFaceTurn.
* {{Expy}}: Of Batman from TheDarkKnightReturns, being a Batman living in a CrapsackWorld who alongside Green Arrow opposes an oppressive version of Superman and leads a resistance. His armor also gives him a little more bulk than the main universe Batman.
* TheFettered: To Superman and Wonder Woman's [[TheUnfettered Unfettered]] after their FaceHeelTurn.
* GoodIsNotSoft: As always.
* GrapplingHookPistol: Used for several moves, like [[ImprovisedZipline zipline]] [[YouWillNotEvadeMe kicks]] or slamming an airborne foe into the ground.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: In what appears to be Gotham, a blimp has "Batman Wanted" written across it. The story trailer confirms that after the New Regime shows up, he becomes a wanted man.
* IconOfRebellion[=/=]RebelLeader: He leads a resistance against the New Regime led by Superman and Wonder Woman.
-->'''Lex Luthor''': Batman is the face of the Insurgency. [[WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou If he dies, it dies with him.]]
* [[spoiler:IHaveNoSon: His attitude towards Damian after Dick Grayson's murder.]]
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Despite his rough and dark exterior, he is this. Unfortunately, once the Joker caught onto this, he changed enemies and forced Superman to have a FaceHeelTurn.
* KnightInSourArmor: This Batman has [[spoiler:lost one son to the hands of another, been betrayed by a misguided love interest]], and seen his best friend morph into the BigBad and corrupt the rest of his associates or [[spoiler:kill them]]. He's also cynical and hopeless enough to show a profound lack of faith in [[spoiler:any Superman besides his own]]. However, all the above doesn't stop him from fighting the good fight and holding to his code.
* MechaMooks: His special ability is to summon robotic bats, helping in ways like a [[SpinToDeflectStuff spinning barrier]] or as homing projectiles.
* TheMentor: To Robin and before him Nightwing.
* TheMessiah: In his Classic Battle Ending he regains his family fortune and use it to help rebuild the world after the Regime has fallen, since people knows he is Batman it galvanized everyone to help fix society and fight crime.
* MoralityChain: Desperately tries to be this to Superman after his FaceHeelTurn, but he's not too successful.
** MoralityPet: In a twisted way, he ''still'' is this to Regime Superman. He seems the only person than Superman still treats as his equal.
* OffscreenTeleportation: His BattleIntro has his entry hidden by a swarm of bats, and his victory cutscene hides his actual exit with a swish of his cape.
* OldFriend: Not only was he still friends with Superman in this continuity, but [[spoiler:Superman apparently wanted Batman to be his son's godfather before SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker ruined his life]].
** WeUsedToBeFriends: Their relationship as of the game proper.
* OnlySaneMan[=/=]GenreSavvy: [[CrazyPrepared He has a tendency to be the smartest guy in the room.]]
* ParentalSubstitute: To Nightwing, being the one who raised him after his parent's deaths. [[spoiler:He even says that Nightwing was a son to him.]]
* PerpetualFrowner: Not that he's got much to be happy about, mind you.
* ShockAndAwe: He tasers his opponent during his Supermove.
* ShutUpHannibal: In his Clash quotes with Regime Superman:
-->'''Regime Superman''': The Insurgency dies with you!
-->'''Insurgency Batman''': [[TheDeterminator If you can kill me!]]
** And...
-->'''Regime Superman''': You'll regret the day you--
-->'''Insurgency Batman''': Just shut up and fight!
** [[RuleOfThree And...]]
-->'''Regime Superman''': You disappoint me Bruce
-->'''Insurgency Batman''': [[TakeThat 'cause I'm not a killer?]]
* TheStoic: Very grim, brooding, and humorless, but given his past and chosen career, it's not surprising.
** NotSoStoic[=/=]OhCrap: His reaction when [[spoiler:Superman [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope kills the Joker.]]]] Also when he has to spell it out for the president that he's being TooDumbToLive concerning his way of dealing with Superman's FaceHeelTurn.
--->'''Batman''': ''The police won't think to look for your body on Saturn!''
* SuperheroesWearCapes: One of the {{Trope Codifier}}s.
* ThouShaltNotKill: His golden rule. Tragically, he becomes one of the only superheroes who maintains this when things go to hell.
* [[WhatTheHellHero What The Hell, Superman?]]: He tries to do this first after Superman [[spoiler:[[PayEvilUntoEvil kills the Joker]]]] and then again when he [[spoiler:[[KickTheDog dumps Atlantis into the Sahara]]]], but Superman won't have any of it.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: In a way. He tells Superman that had he experienced everything he had he probably would have ended up becoming a KnightTemplar too, when in fact he has IncorruptiblePurePureness that he doesn’t seem to recognize. This is shown because in fact Batman ''does'' experience a loss similar to Supermans when [[spoiler:Damian has a FaceHeelTurn after he accidentally kills Dick Grayson in the process.]] And yet Batman does not succumb the way Superman did.
** He also tries to convince Superman to not go down the road he's currently going by saying that while Batman might've gone down that path if he was inflicted by such a tragic loss as what Superman experienced, Superman shouldn't because he's supposed to be the better man. [[FallenHero He fails.]]

[[folder:Regime Wonder Woman]]
--> ''"[[HumansAreTheRealMonsters Man's world is incapable of self-rule.]] [[KnightTemplar We will preserve order.]]"''
!!Alter Ego: Diana of Themyscira
!!!Voiced by: Susan Eisenberg

* AbsoluteCleavage: In a dress she wears to entice Superman.
* ActorAllusion[=/=]{{Expy}}: Of Justice Lord Wonder Woman
* AdaptationalVillainy: Even before having a full-blown FaceHeelTurn, this version of Diana has noticeably more of a HeWhoFightsMonsters mentality, something supported both by Ares' observations and also how Diana seems to be taking just a little ''too much'' delight in seeing Superman adopt a more militant world-view. Not only that, but her interactions with Superman in the prequel comics are more and more showing both [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]] and LadyMacbeth symptoms. Basically, it seems like Diana's been wanting to cut loose for a long time now. [[spoiler:Nowhere is this more apparent than [[MirrorMatch in her confrontation with her alternate self.]] Where good Wonder Woman is the compassionate and noble hero she's supposed to be, Regime Wonder Woman is an outright BloodKnight who dismisses her counterpart as "weak-willed".]]
* AllAmazonsWantHercules: Or in this case, Superman.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: As second in command of the New Regime. Her being [[BadassPrincess princess of the Amazons]] also probably counts.
* TheBaroness: Sexpot variety.
* BattleCouple: She's fully intending for her and Superman to become this. [[ManipulativeBastard Remember that this is after everything that's happened to him]] not the least of which is [[spoiler:losing Lois Lane and her and Superman's unborn child.]]
* BullyingADragon[=/=]IShallTauntYou[=/=]DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: To Ares in the prequel comic. He is not amused.
** DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: And then she cuts off his hand and [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice and runs her sword through his]] [[{{Squick}} spinal column]].
* CoDragons: With Yellow Lantern to Regime Superman.
* DarkActionGirl
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Changes into her Amazonian armor after becoming Superman's [[TheDragon Dragon]]. Not only does this suit have more armor than regular Wonder Woman with SpikesOfVillainy, it also shows more leg and conspicuously enhances her cleavage.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: She becomes Superman's second in command.
** [[BewareTheSuperman Beware The Wonder Woman]]: Even ''Ares'' is afraid of her, or at the very least, her and Superman [[BattleCouple together.]]
** TheCynic: No longer seems to have much faith left in humanity based on her claim that man's rage "cannot be tempered, only quelled."
** EvilCounterpart: To the version of Wonder Woman that never had a FaceHeelTurn and shown quite clearly [[MirrorMatch in their confrontation with one another.]]
** EvilFormerFriend: To Batman and any other heroes who will be opposing the New Regime.
** KnightTemplar[=/=][[HeWhoFightsMonsters She Who Fights Monsters]]: "Man's aggression cannot be tempered, only ''quelled.''"
** WellIntentionedExtremist[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: She honestly believes she's doing the right thing.
* {{Hypocrite}}: In the prequel comic she lectures Aquaman on his attacking Whalers, even though this is right after her and Superman have made clear their newfound KnightTemplar stance. Apparently [[PayEvilUntoEvil punishing a dictator who was shelling his own people is okay,]] [[MoralDissonance but punishing guys who are killing whales by the hundreds isn't.]] Mind you, whale life doesn't quite take the same priority human life does, but its still hypocritical due to a KnightTemplar criticizing someone with a PayEvilUntoEvil mentality. Not only that, but this ''is'' Aquaman that she's speaking to. Aquaman considers all fish to be equal to humanity and Atlanteans, as he's the ruler of everything in the seas.
* LadyMacbeth: More and more becoming one to Superman. Especially since Diana is fully planning for her and Superman to become a couple as they create their new world order.
* [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]]: She's showing signs of this in her interactions with Superman in the prequel comic.
* MookChivalry: Averted in her Supermove, as a literal AmazonBrigade helps beat up her opponent.
* MsFanservice[=/=]{{Stripperific}}: She invokes this when wearing a dress with AbsoluteCleavage, and Yellow Lantern lampshades it.
* NighInvulnerability: As is typical for Wonder Woman, but this version is notably even more durable than usual, being both completely bullet-proof and also able to safely be at ground zero of an atomic explosion alongside Superman.
* [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]]: She ''is'' an Amazon, after all.
* ReplacementGoldfish: To [[spoiler:Lois Lane.]] Deathstroke even calls her [[spoiler:"Superman's rebound girl"]].
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her Regime costume has numerous spikes across her leggings.
* SuperpowerLottery: The "World's Strongest Woman" to Superman's "World's Strongest Man."
** {{Flight}}: Like Superman, she [[PowerFloats hovers in place]] while in her Lasso stance.
** SuperStrength: Ranging from [[YouWillNotEvadeMe high-speed lasso yanks]] to ripping a generator from its power cords.
* TalkToTheFist: More and more embracing this mentality as her way of solving problems. As she's put it: "I'm so sick of words".
* ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: She can throw her shield while in her Sword stance.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Post FaceHeelTurn, and [[AdaptationalVillainy also in general when compared to her mainstream counterpart.]]
* UndyingLoyalty: To Superman. Pity that he's a KnightTemplar now.
* TheUnfettered: And its clear during her FaceHeelTurn that she's happy she can finally be this.
* WhipItGood: She can use her Lasso as a short-range lash with the non-looped end.
* TheWomanBehindTheMan: To Superman after his FaceHeelTurn, more and more goading him down a darker path and even saying that she'll "never let him doubt himself ever again".
* YouWillNotEvadeMe: Her Lasso of Truth is used this way during combat, drawing her opponent towards her.

--> ''"[[NotWhatISignedUpFor This isn't what we signed up for]]. I let myself believe we were making things better. [[HeelRealization But we're not]]."''
!!Alter Ego: Barry Allen
!!!Voiced by: Neil [=McDonough=]

* {{Badass}}: The Fastest Man Alive and more than capable of holding his own against his peers in the Justice League.
* [[BewareTheSuperman Beware The Flash]]: When with the New Regime. He also seems to acknowledge the existence of this trope more than just about anyone else.
* [[spoiler:TheCowl: As of his ending, he's acting this way in Star City as "the Ghost".]]
* [[spoiler:DefectorFromDecadence: He abandons the New Regime after Superman crosses the MoralEventHorizon.]]
* EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler:Subverted at the end of the campaign. He ends up under arrest with the rest of his former Regime allies in the ending, though its suggested that he turned himself in willingly. A silent interaction between him and Green Arrow shows that he's at peace with his decision.]]
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Uses a slightly different version of his costume during his time with the Regime.
* FlashStep: {{Pun}} aside, he utilizes this while throwing his opponent.
* FragileSpeedster: Averted. Since all of the characters seem to have the same amount of health, the Flash is no more or less fragile than any other character.
* [[spoiler:HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: He defects to the Insurgency after Superman murders Shazam for trying to talk him out of a MoralEventHorizon.]]
* HighSpeedMissileDodge: The Flash can vibrate fast enough to phase through incoming projectiles.
* KickTheDog[=/=]LackOfEmpathy: While part of the New Regime, he coldly responds to Aquaman's accusations that the Regime is subjugating Atlantis that it's what Aquaman agreed to and it's what they ''expect''.
* MeteorMove: His Supermove involves running around the world really fast, launching his opponent into the air at an arc, and then punching him/her back to where s/he stood before s/he sails away.
* NotWhatISignedUpFor: Said almost verbatim during Story Mode [[spoiler:after watching Superman kill Shazam for calling him out.]]
* RapidFireFisticuffs: With a few of his moves, being a SuperSpeed character and all.
* RedOnesGoFaster: The [[SuperSpeed Fastest Man Alive]] wears a red costume with some small yellow bits. Also the TropeCodifier.
* RoundhouseKick: Used for some of his heavier attacks.
* SuperSpeed: The [[Pantheon/{{Travel}} God]] of it. [[WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer And since it's his one superpower, he knows how to use it far beyond simply "running fast."]]
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: With Regime Shazam, they spend most of the game together. [[spoiler:Notably, [[KillTheCutie Shazam's death]] is what finally prompts the Flash's HeelRealization and subsequent defection to the Insurgency.]] He also has shades of this with Yellow Lantern.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Insurgency Harleen Quinzel]]
!!Alter Ego: Harleen Quinzel
!!!Voiced by: Creator/TaraStrong

* AffablyEvil: She's actually a rather pleasant, fun-loving person. She has quite a nice conversation with Green Arrow. After she just hijacked a cop car and attempted to kill him twice.
* BadassNormal: One of the "Gadget" type characters.
* BaddieFlattery: She thought that Green Arrow using an arrow to jam her gun was cool. Heck, she even asked him to do it again.
* BareYourMidriff: Her Insurgency outfit.
* [[spoiler:BloodSplatteredWeddingDress: In her Classic Battle ending, she rescues the alternate universe Joker from prison and returns to the Regime world to be wedded. However, she [[MistreatmentInducedBetrayal snaps during the cake cutting ceremony and kills the Joker]] via SlashedThroat. She is then imprisoned in Arkham Asylum, still wearing her wedding dress.]]
* BoomHeadshot: Her Insurgency costume in the iOS game has the move "Line Of Fire" where she does this with both her pistols.
* CloudCuckoolander: She comes off as incredibly ditzy, goofy, and outright insane. Among other things she tries to convince her world's Batman that they should let the Joker work with them...seeming to forget that Joker is Batman's ArchEnemy, not to mention that his counterpart was the cause of ''every bad thing'' that has happened to that world.
* TheDogBitesBack: She's pretty much had enough of all of the crap the Joker's put her through. [[spoiler:When she see's Alternate!Joker, she is not happy. Unfortunately, she's unable to stop herself from falling for his charms again, but she realizes she shouldn't be doing so and ultimately throws him off completely - nearly killing him in the process.]] In her Classic Ending, [[spoiler:she tries to marry him, but then totally snaps and kills him for real in response to his abuse.]]
-->"I don't know who this "Joker" is, but if he thinks things are gonna go back to the way they were... the joke's on him!"
* EnemyMine: [[spoiler:Subverted. She's gone more or less heroic since the Joker's death, and goes against him for good after he outright tries to murder her for not managing to steal Lex Luthor's PoweredArmor.]]
* FightingClown: Literally too! Her Supermove involves her placing an exploding pie under the opponent's feet.
* GenkiGirl: Par for the course for Harley.
* GunsAkimbo: Her primary weapons are a pair of small pistols that she's almost constantly holding. She can also use them for PistolWhipping.
* [[spoiler:HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: She pulls one after The Joker's death, then falls back into MadLove soon after the alternate universe Joker arrives, then reverts back to being a hero after the Joker nearly executes her for failing to defeat Lex Luthor, with Luthor saving her and [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim stopping her from killing him back]].]]
** [[spoiler:In her Classic Battle ending, she once again succumbs to MadLove, travels to the heroic universe, frees the Joker, and travels back to her own universe to wed him. [[MistreatmentInducedBetrayal She snaps during the cake-cutting ceremony, however, killing the Joker]] and getting consigned to Arkham Asylum.]]
* HyperspaceMallet: Whereas most characters have their weapons on their person or in a utility belt, Harley's mallet (which is at least as big as her torso) is conspicuously absent from her character model, appearing out of nowhere when used.
* [[spoiler:IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: Lex Luthor convinces Harley to spare the Joker after he turns on her, helping her return to the heroic path.]]
* KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: Literally does this to a defeated opponent.
* MadeOfExplodium: Has explosive cupcakes in her arsenal and her Supermove is a pie bomb.
* MadLove: Harley's standard relationship with the Joker. [[spoiler:Her Insurgency self relapses into this after the alternate Joker arrives, but snaps out of it thanks to Lex Luthor.]]
* MonsterClown: Not so much in appearance, but being the Joker's right hand...
* MsFanservice: See SexyJester and {{Stripperific}} below.
* [[spoiler: MyGodWhatHaveIDone: A possible reason she stays in arkham in her wedding dress is that she's distressed that she killed the joker herself and has lost the will to escape.]]
* PerpetualSmiler: Per being a MonsterClown.
* PluckyComicRelief: Much of her involvement in the prequel comic has been this. Mixed with being Joker's [[TheDragon Dragon]].
* [[PsychopathicManChild Psychopathic Woman Child]]: If her general demeanor wasn't enough, there's also the fact that she's still got MadLove related issues with the Joker.
* SexyJester: She maintains this general motif, though the {{Stripperific}} emphasis downplays the "jester" aspect.
* {{Stripperific}}: Her Insurgency costume gives her a [[BareYourMidriff bare midriff]], partially exposed thong, and a tramp stamp.
* VillainousCrush: Had one on Insurgency!Green Arrow.
* [[VillainHasAPoint Villainess Has A Point]]: A comedic example. She accurately points out to Green Arrow that as arrows are inanimate objects, having an "Arrow Cave" doesn't make any sense and that it would be better to call it "The Quiver".
-->'''Green Arrow''': ''That''… [[CrowningMomentOfFunny is actually better.]]

* [[spoiler:AntagonisticOffspring: To Bruce.]]
* ArrogantKungFuGuy
* AxCrazy: '''I'll kill ya clown boy!''' Also this:
-->'''Insurgency Batman''': Killing me won't help!
-->'''Regime Nightwing''': But it'll feel great!
* {{Badass}}: He's Batman's protegee after graduating from [[IncrediblyLamePun Robinhood]].
** BadassBiker: Not only does he drive into battle on a CoolBike, but it also features into his Supermove.
** BadassLonghair: Further enhancing his DarkerAndEdgier image.
** BadassNormal: One of the "Gadget" type characters.
** [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass: In addition to going from Robin to Nightwing, there's also his ending, which sees him becoming part of the Sinestro Corps.]]
* [[spoiler: BastardBastard]]
* BattleBoomerang: Can throw "Wing-Dings" (bird-themed Batarangs) while jumping.
* BifurcatedWeapon: He can combine his eskrima sticks into a staff.
* BloodKnight
* [[CarFu Bike Fu]]: He doesn't ram the opponent, per se, but drive-by gauntlet slashes are pretty darn close.
* [[spoiler:CompositeCharacter: Displays a fusion of Damian's arrogance with Jason Todd's self righteous fury, and also like Todd, becomes an EvilCounterpart to Dick Grayson.]]
* ContinuityNod: Visual example. His alternate costume is strikingly similar to his New52 costume.
* CoolBike: Used in his BattleIntro and his Supermove.
* DarkerAndEdgier: His costume uses [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver black and red]] colors and features him with long hair.
* DominoMask: [[AnimalMotif It's even in the shape of a bird logo]].
* DualWielding: Wields two electrified eskrima sticks that can combine into a not-so-SimpleStaff.
* EvilCounterpart: [[spoiler:Damian Nightwing to Dick Grayson Nightwing]]
* [[spoiler:FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Played with; Dick didn't, but [[KlingonPromotion Damian definitely did and has taken the Nightwing mantle.]]]]
* {{Jerkass}}: He’s thoroughly obnoxious and arrogant, and many of his Clash Quotes have him taking shots at his opponents, particularly Batman, Deathstroke, and Catwoman where he mocks the latter two’s being older than him.
* [[spoiler:LegacyCharacter: Damian takes on the Nightwing identity after accidentally killing Dick.]]
* MythologyGag: [[spoiler:Batman was once offered a place in the Sinestro Corps. Here, his son accepts the same offer in his ending.]]
* ObviouslyEvil: [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver The red and black outfit]] plus the AxCrazy and KnightTemplar tendencies make it clear he's a bad guy.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His costume replaces the usual blue of Nightwing's outfit with red. This is actually similar to his {{New 52}} outfit.
* [[spoiler:RingOfPower: Damian is granted one in his ending, when he joins the Sinestro Corps.]]
* ShockAndAwe: His eskrima sticks are electrified, as are his gauntlets in his Supermove.
* SimpleStaff: Subverted on the "simple" aspect, given its capability for ShockAndAwe.
* WalkingSpoiler

[[folder:Regime Cyborg]]
!!Alter Ego: Victor Stone
!!!Voiced by: Khary Payton

* BaldOfEvil: He's lost his hair since having a FaceHeelTurn.
* BodyHorror: His Regime costume has significantly more jagged-looking implants overall, but what pushes it into this territory is his back, which indents into what looks like an exposed cybernetic spine.
* ColdBloodedTorture: To Deathstroke.
* {{Cyborg}}: ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* DarkerAndEdgier: His secondary costume has wires jutting out of his body, a shaved head, and just looks more bulky and intimidating in general, all meant to represent his FaceHeelTurn.
* EvilCounterpart: To Good Cyborg natch.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Confirmed in Green Lantern's story trailer to be with the New Regime.
** HeWhoFightsMonsters[=/=]KnightTemplar[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: As with all other followers of New Regime philosophy.
* {{Glowing Mechanical Eye|s}}: His left eye is a [[RedEyesTakeWarning red]] cybernetic prosthetic that emits a [[FrickinLaserBeams laser]], which is most evident if one subjects him to the bottom-to-top transition on the Fortress of Solitude.
* ICanStillFight: During his defeated pose, Cyborg briefly forms an ArmCannon as he tries to pull himself back up.
* LightIsNotGood: He's still mostly silver and white.
* OldFriend: To Raven, since they were both on the Teen Titans together.
* ScaryBlackMan: Let's see...[[RedEyesTakeWarning red eye]], BodyHorror cybernetics, HeWhoFightsMonsters mentality...
* ShutUpKirk: In a Clash with [[MirrorMatch his good version]]
-->'''Good Cyborg''': [[KnightTemplar You're on the wrong side of this!]]
-->'''Regime Cyborg''': [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids Keep thinking that]]
* SuperStrength: His cybernetic enhancements grant him a significant amount of strength.
* SwissArmyAppendage: With serious [[TelescopingRobot telescoping]] properties.
** ArmCannon: His most common technique beyond his {{Power Fist}}s.
*** {{BFG}}: His Supermove combines his arms into one massive energy blaster.
*** ChargedAttack: He can charge up his basic arm cannon into a more powerful blast.
--->''(during a Clash)'' "''Here's'' a little something for ya!"
** [[GrapplingHookPistol Grappling-Hook Arm]]: Used for mobility instead of direct damage.
** {{Power Fist}}s: His heavier attacks greatly increase the size of his arms. The one that starts off his Supermove is as big as ''his entire body''.
** ShockAndAwe: His throws involve a giant electric clamp that binds the enemy around the waist (or [[GroinAttack the groin]] with big foes like Grundy).
* UndyingLoyalty: To Superman. [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]] though because it causes him to have a FaceHeelTurn as well.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Regime Catwoman]]
!!Alter Ego: Selina Kyle
!!!Voiced by: Music/GreyDeLisle

* AdaptationalVillainy: Though her normal version isn't exactly a hero, she still has AntiHero moments, whereas this one sides with [[EvilOverlord Superman]] to try to make sure Batman isn't hurt, and turns against Batman completely when he rejects her offer to leave the city with her for good.
* AnimalMotif: Do we even need to say?
* BadassNormal: One of the "Gadget" type characters.
* BattleCouple: She wants desperately to be this with Batman.
* [[spoiler:BittersweetEnding: Her Classic Battle ending. Superman is defeated, but her pride keeps her from trying to make amends with Batman. However, inspired by his reconstructive efforts, she dedicates herself to helping defend the streets until she and Batman are ready to speak again.]]
* CatGirl: Or "Woman," as the case may be. She's of the "cat-themed suit" variety.
* DarkActionGirl: [[AdaptationalVillainy Even moreso than in general.]]
* DatingCatwoman: She tries desperately to invoke this, but thanks to her AdaptationalVillainy Batman's not having any of it.
* FemmeFatale: It helps her when dealing with people like Batman.
* GenreBlindness: [[spoiler:For thinking that Batman would agree with her offer of leaving with her and abandoning the fight with Superman]]
* GogglesDoNothing: At the very least, they seem to play no role in combat.
* [[spoiler:HeelFaceTurn: In her ending.]]
* KnightTemplar: Subverted. She's with the Regime but still doesn't have the mindset of this trope.
* LaResistance: She joins Batman's resistance [[spoiler:but it doesn't last]].
* [[spoiler: LoveMakesYouEvil [[LoveMakesYouCrazy and Crazy]]: She apparently joins the Regime because she doesn't want Batman hurt, believing this will somehow let them live peacefully together. She ultimately fulfills her Regime obligations to fight him purely out of spite for his completely understandable rejection.]]
* LeotardOfPower: Her costume here wears this with pants underneath, resulting in just a sliver of skin at her hips.
* {{Pride}}: [[spoiler:Which keeps her from apologizing to Batman right away in her ending]]
* PurpleIsPowerful: Her Regime costume is lavender-colored.
* SensualSpandex[=/=]SpyCatsuit: As if her cat motif wasn't strong enough.
* ShipTease: [[spoiler:With Cyborg, [[CrackPairing of all people]]. It's left ambiguous whether or not the pair were indeed forming a romantic relationship in the Regime universe or if she was just acted flirty to determine whether he was an imposter or not.]]
* VillainessesWantHeroes: Her attraction to Batman has become this due to her AdaptationalVillainy
* WhipItGood: Her tail can be detached to use as such.
* WildCard[=/=]HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: She's initially with the Insurgency, than with the Regime, and then in her ending [[spoiler:becomes an AntiHero again.]]
* WolverineClaws: She has metallic cat claws attached to each finger of her gloves.

[[folder:Insurgency Green Arrow]]
* ArcherArchetype: If his name wasn't a giveaway.
* BowAndSwordInAccord: Has a large knife attached to his bow, which he detaches for several of his melee attacks.
* TheComicallySerious: In his interactions with Harley Quinn in the prequel comic.
* DominoMask: Smaller than most, but it still does the job.
* FashionableAsymmetry: His right arm is covered in padded armor and his left arm has a solid bracer with bindings further up.
* [[FriendlySniper Friendly Archer]]: A highly skilled marksman who's both heroic and easygoing.
* InTheHood: Before changing his costume.
* JustLikeRobinHood: In addition to starting out with the same [[InTheHood hooded]] look as his counterpart, the costume he eventually changed to looks vaguely Medieval.
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal]]
* LaResistance: He was a member of Batman's Insurgency.
* [[spoiler:LegacyCharacter: After the Regime falls, Roy Harper takes on the identity of Red Arrow and continues protecting the streets of Star City.]]

* PaperThinDisguise: His Insurgency costume, where he lacks any headgear other than a small DominoMask that barely surrounds his eyes.
* [[spoiler:SacrificialLion: It's implied that he was one of the first casualties of Superman's Regime, and his death is one of the biggest warning signs that Superman is ''not'' good anymore]]
* TheStraightAndArrowPath: As would be expected of an archer.
* TheStraightMan: To Harley in the issue of the prequel comic they star in.
* [[TrickArrow Trick Arrows]]: Including [[ArrowsOnFire fire]], [[StaticStunGun electric]], [[HarmlessFreezing freeze]], [[StuffBlowingUp explosive]], and bola varieties, plus a [[ImprovisedZipline zipline]] arrow in his BattleIntro and firework arrows for his victory cutscene. His infamous Boxing Glove arrows get a mention in the tie-in comic.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: According to Insurgency Batman, he tried to convince Superman of this. [[spoiler:He not only failed, but died in the process.]]

!!!Voiced by: RichardEpcar
* AffablyEvil[=/=]FauxAffablyEvil: He is eerily polite and civil sounding when speaking, [[NukeEm but his]] [[MoralEventHorizon actions in the prequel comics]] [[AxCrazy speak for themselves]].
* ArchEnemy: To Batman, and in this continuity also seems to be going out of his way to become one to Superman as well.
* AxCrazy: [[NukeEm Nuking Metropolis]] speaks for itself.
* [[spoiler:BackFromTheDead: Subverted. The Joker in the game proper is from a world that never suffered the calamity the Injustice universe did.]]
* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Joker manages to destroy Metropolis and, most importantly, totally break Superman: twisting him into something as evil and monstrous as himself - the kind of thing result that is his dearest goal. To him, it doesn't matter at all if he was killed as a result. The fact that he is laughing maniacally as Superman kills him says it all.]]
* BiggerBad: Everything bad that has happened in this continuity is courtesy of Joker deciding to nuke Metropolis.
* BrightIsNotGood: One of the best examples of this trope there is. In spite of his very colorful appearance, [[AxCrazy he's most definitely not good.]]
* BullyingADragon: Many previews assert that the Joker isn't particularly diplomatic to a furious and grieving Superman.
* ConsummateLiar: To the point that Batman was convinced that the Lasso of Truth wouldn't work on him.
-->'''Batman''': I don't know what would spew out of [[AxCrazy that]] [[AMindIsATerribleThingToRead mind]], but it wouldn't be the truth.
* TheCorrupter: To Superman in the prequel comic. Also to Harley Quinn, which brings up the fact that [[spoiler:his death allows her HeelFaceTurn]].
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: The TropeCodifier. When you find [[NukeEm turning Metropolis]] [[MoralEventHorizon into a crater]] funny, [[TheSociopath you have problems.]]
* EvilLaugh: [[spoiler:Even as he dies.]]
* ForTheEvulz: His singular motivation. Also the reason he targets Superman in the prequel: he was bored of losing to Batman. He also lampshades this when Batman asks him why he did it.
-->'''Joker''': Why? Why need a reason?
* HannibalLecture: Gives a scathing one to Superman in the beginning of the game, [[spoiler:after he's destroyed Metropolis and drugged Superman into killing his wife and child.]] Unfortunately for the world, it works like a charm - [[TheBadGuyWins and Joker ends up laughing all the way to the morgue.]]
* HeroKiller: He's responsible for the deaths of [[spoiler:Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane]], and [[NukeEm all of Metropolis]].
* [[spoiler:JokerImmunity: Averted. Superman kills him.]]
* KickTheSonOfABitch[=/=]YouHaveOutLivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:Killed Scarecrow after obtaining his fear gas for his own ends]].
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal: In issue 4 of the prequel comic [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope by Superman himself.]]]]
** [[spoiler:AssholeVictim: He's the first villain Superman kills and honestly, he had it coming.]]
** [[spoiler:DieLaughing: Probably because in this case, [[TheBadGuyWins he got just what he wanted]]: a FallenHero.]]
** [[spoiler:FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: Probably why he has a SoundOnlyDeath in-game.]]
** [[spoiler:GoOutWithASmile: He is disturbingly still smiling even as he's getting ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice.]]
** [[spoiler:ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Superman does this to him with his bare arm]].
** [[spoiler:SacrificialLion: His death happens in issue 4 and marks Superman's FaceHeelTurn.]]
** [[spoiler:SoundOnlyDeath: In the game proper.]]
* KnightOfCerebus: In the prequel comics, since he's the one who drives Superman off the deep end.
* LackOfEmpathy: He cruelly mocks Superman's loss when he's reeling from the deaths of [[spoiler:Lois Lane and most of Metropolis]] which prompts [[spoiler:[[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope Superman to]] [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice run him through with his bare arm]]]].
* LeanAndMean: Similar to many portrayals of TheJoker, he is fairly thin with no visible muscle.
* MonsterClown: His white skin and [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair green hair]]? Permanent thanks to a chemical spill.
* NukeEm: To Metropolis namely.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: He winds up doing this ''to himself'' when [[spoiler:Superman impales him with his arm in response to the whole [[NukeEm nuking Metropolis thing]]]].
* PerpetualSmiler: A SlasherSmile namely.
* PoisonIsEvil: Joker Toxin, which he uses to kill [[spoiler:Scarecrow]].
* PurpleIsPowerful: Again, purple suit.
* ShouldersOfDoom: His costume feature some pointy shoulders.
* SlasherSmile[=/=]GlasgowGrin: Not only does he have one himself, he has a deadly laughing gas that forces his victims to have them.
* TheSociopath: As is typical for the Joker, but he really pushes it here.
* TooSoon: Invoked in the opening cut scene.
-->'''Joker:''' I know it's soon, but...think you'll ever love again? Maybe you won't kill your next family...
* WalkingSpoiler: It's impossible to talk about almost anything in the game without mentioning what happened to him. It's so prominent that it takes up the opening cutscene.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Green Hair]]: Permanently dyed that way, thanks to a spill at Ace Chemicals.

[[folder:Yellow Lantern]]
-->''"Well, look what I found! Time to end [[LaResistance the Insurgency!]]"''
!!Alter Ego: Hal Jordan
!!!Voiced By: Creator/AdamBaldwin
* [[spoiler:AntiVillain: He shows legitimate regret for his actions as a member of the Regime. He simply lacks the same courage as Flash has to actually leave it. Justified since he has to rely on Sinestro for power, so he wouldn't get far before being killed. It isn't until the good Superman confronts him that he owns up to his terrible actions.]]
* {{Badass}}: Think a human version of Sinestro.
** EmpoweredBadassNormal: Not only his he gifted amazing abilities through his GreenLanternRing, but he's also an ace U.S. Air Force veteran with several powerful attacks that don't specifically rely on said ring.
* CoDragons: With Regime Wonder Woman to Superman.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience[=/=]EvilCostumeSwitch: Replaces his GreenLanternRing and uniform with that of the Sinestro Corps whilst under the New Regime.
* DirtyCoward: Green Lantern views him as this, claiming that he's taken on "the color of cowardice". In fact Yellow Lantern does show shades of this [[spoiler:when the Flash chooses to leave after Superman kills Shazam, Yellow Lantern is clearly shown to lack the same courage.]]
* DominoMask: A non-essential addition to his uniform, but he likes to keep his identity secret.
* EvilCounterpart: Yellow Lantern becomes this to the version of Hal that never had a FaceHeelTurn.
* {{Expy}}: [[NotSoDifferent Of Sinestro]] following his FaceHeelTurn.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Like most of the other heroes, he goes New Regime.
** [[BewareTheSuperman Beware The Lantern]]: Indeed; when with the New Regime, he wields the yellow light of fear.
** EvilFormerFriend: To Batman and any other heroes who will be opposing the New Regime.
** HeWhoFightsMonsters[=/=]KnightTemplar[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: As with other adherents of Regime philosophy.
* {{Flight}}: One of the powers provided by his GreenLanternRing. Like several characters, his default stance is [[PowerFloats hovering just above the ground]].
* [[GreenLanternRing Qwardian Power Ring]]: In place of his GreenLanternRing. Several of his constructs include:
** AnAxeToGrind: Yellow Lantern tries to kill good Cyborg with a giant construct shaped like a butcher's axe.
** CarryABigStick[=/=]BatterUp: One of his constructs is some kind of spiked club/bat.
** DropTheHammer: Starts off his Supermove with a gigantic one.
** EpicFlail: Not very big, but it does the job.
** GatlingGood[=/=]MoreDakka: Possibly based on a fighter plane's gun.
** LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: He conjures up a shield with the Sinestro Corps symbol to protect him from [[TheStraightAndArrowPath arrow constructs]] launched at him by Green Lantern.
** MacrossMissileMassacre: Uses several missiles across his moveset, both as regular moves and during his Supermove.
** RammingAlwaysWorks: Uses a jet engine as a flying battering ram with several of his moves. His Supermove uses [[CarFu buses]] and whole fighter planes as well.
** TheStraightAndArrowPath: Green Lantern launches a number of arrow constructs at Yellow Lantern.
** ThereWasADoor: Forcefully invoked in his throw, wherein he constructs a brick wall specifically to smash his opponent through it.
** TractorBeam: He can simply latch onto his opponent with his ring's light without making a restraining construct.
* [[spoiler:KnowWhenToFoldEm: Faced with the main universe Superman and a {{depower}}ed Sinestro of his own universe, Yellow Lantern wisely decides to just hand over his own Sinestro Corps ring. This is probably because he already [[CurbStompBattle had it stolen from him]] when he was a Green Lantern fighting the newly DespairEventHorizon crossed Regime Superman.]]
* LightIsNotGood: Wields the yellow light of fear.
* LockAndLoadMontage: His BattleIntro does the closest equivalent for a Yellow Lantern: charging up with his Power Battery.
* MeaningfulRename: He's the only playable character to have a different name based on what costume he's wearing. And appropriately, this Hal Jordan lacks the courage that defines the heroic one.
* NotSoDifferent[=/=]{{Hypocrite}}[=/=]TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget: He turned against Sinestro after it became apparant he was keeping the peace on Korugar through fear. As part of the New Regime, Hal does that same thing and even gains a yellow power ring of the Sinestro Corps.
* PaletteSwap: His Sinestro Corps uniform is just a re-skinned version of his secondary Green Lantern costume.
* RingOfPower: Has exchanged his old GreenLanternRing for a Qwardian one.
* ShouldersOfDoom: A mild case with his Sinestro Corps outfit.
* SuperStrength: His ring allows him to execute feats of strength on par with the likes of Superman if he so wishes.
* TronLines: Both his primary and secondary designs feature this, particularly his secondary.
* UnderwearOfPower: His Sinestro Corps costume has the outline of such with glowing TronLines.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Insurgency Deathstroke]]
!!!Voiced By: JG Hertzler
--> ''"[[{{Revenge}} It's payback time.]]"''

* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Deathstroke uses his knowledge of the former hero's tatics to his advantage. He even does two {{Punch Catch}}es on Regime Wonder Woman in a row, just from knowing her fighting style.
* {{Badass}}: As one would expect from Deathstroke.
** {{Badass|Beard}} BeardOfEvil: Visible in his unmasked secondary costume and ''Comicbook/{{Flashpoint}}'' costume.
** BadassGrandpa: As shown in both his secondary costume and his ''Comicbook/{{Flashpoint}}'' costume.
** BadassNormal: One of the "Gadget" type characters.
* BoomHeadshot: Twice in his Supermove.
* ColdBloodedTorture: Subjected to it by Raven and Cyborg, hence his feud with the Regime.
* ColdSniper: A scoped rifle is one of his weapons.
* CoolSword: A large (but not quite {{BFS}}-level) longsword that's serrated near the hilt.
* DeadpanSnarker: He has his moments.
* EnemyMine: [[spoiler:While he can’t claim to be a friend of Batman or the Justice League, he still works with them against the common enemy that is the Regime. Once it ends, however, his ending shows he gathers the remaining Regime soldiers to form [[MurderInc the New Titans]].]]
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: One of his attacks involves him spinning vertically in the air with his blade.
* EyeScream: We see him without his eyepatch in Green Lantern's chapter, it isn't pretty.
* EyepatchOfPower: Not only his "unlit" eye in his mask, but he wears one without his mask as well.
* GrenadeLauncher: His scoped rifle seems to have this as an attachment.
* GunsAkimbo: Has dual pistols and dual [=SMGs=].
* GunNut: He's got a scoped rifle with a grenade launcher attachment, a pair of [=SMGs=], and dual pistols.
* HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic: When working with the heroes, he's never seen with his mask at all.
* ImprobableUseOfAWeapon: His Supermove has him throw his sword into the air and ''kick it at his opponent'' as it comes back down.
* InTheBack: He uses a gun on his opponent's back for his throw.
* MoreDakka[=/=]MultiRangedMaster: Has a couple different guns in his arsenal.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He served in Vietnam, yet his healing factor has slowed his aging.
* {{Revenge}}: Seeks it on the Regime for torturing him.
* SniperRifle: Has a scoped rifle of some sort, though it has a high rate of fire and a GrenadeLauncher attachment.
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:To the Regime when he [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome blows up the Watchtower.]]]]
* SpikesOfVillainy: Averted. While there are a few small ones in his secondary costume, he's working with the Insurgency.
* SwordAndGun: While he does not wield both at the same time, he can alternate between then readily enough and also lampshades his diverse arsenal with the line "[[SadisticChoice Do you prefer]] [[CoolSword steel]] [[MoreDakka or lead?]]"
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: His Supermove screams of this. In order, it includes a slash across the stomach, double [[BoomHeadshot headshot]], kicking the sword into the opponent's gut from a distance, and unloading [[MoreDakka a lot of bullets]] with dual [=SMGs=].
* WalkingArmory: Let's see: CoolSword, scoped rifle/grenade launcher, dual pistols, dual [=SMGs=]...
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Pretty much disappears from the story after [[spoiler:acquiring a weapon for Luthor on board the Watchtower. He's not seen again after his SpannerInTheWorks scheme [[StuffBlowingUp comes to fruition]], so it could be assumed that he died, except normal universe Cyborg notes that [[NoOneGetsLeftBehind everyone was evacuated from the Watchtower before it exploded]]]]. However, he does have a reason not to appear: he just doesn't care about the majority of the conflict, just fulfilling his {{revenge}}, which he had fulfilled by that point. After that, it's not his job anymore.

[[folder:Insurgency Lex Luthor]]
--> ''"[[CrazyEnoughToWork May fortune favor the foolish.]]"''
!!!Voiced by: Mark Rolston
* AnAxeToGrind: His technological polearm can be used as an energy greataxe for powerful melee attacks.
* BadassNormal: Beneath that PoweredArmor is a human no more physically imposing than your average businessman.
* BaldOfAwesome: Especially noticeable since his head is exposed while wearing his PoweredArmor.
* BigBadFriend: Inverted. He's more of a BigGood Friend, as Superman's best friend who is actually the money behind the Insurgency. It even appears he and Superman have been friends since Smallville and Lex seems to feel the same responsibility for stopping him Batman feels.
-->'''Insurgent Batman:''' Superman doesn't suspect his best friend is funding the Insurgency.
* [[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS Brought To You By The Letter "L"]]: On his Insurgency Armor.
* CutscenePowerToTheMax[=/=]GameplayAndStorySegregation: In some cutscenes, Luthor's suit uses {{Frickin Laser Beam|s}} [[HandBlast fired out of his gauntlets]] and shoulder-mounted [[MacrossMissileMassacre missile launchers]], neither of which appears in his in-game moveset. Additionally, his alternate suit closes from the front, yet his victory cutscene has him exiting from the back like his primary costume.
* DeflectorShields: Can activate an all-encompassing energy shield that protects him from a single attack.
* DistantReactionShot: The explosion from his Supermove can be seen from space.
* [[spoiler:[[DoNotTauntCthulhu Do Not Taunt Superman]]: Lex is fully aware that doing so is complete suicide as shown in the above quote, but he knows it'll probably be the only way he can get Superman into the range of his Kryptonite weapon. Unfortunately, a still conscious Shazam dashes his efforts and [[KilledOffForReal Luthor pays the ultimate price.]]]]
* EnergyBall: His Supermove features a huge one, charged up via KillSat.
* EvilVersusEvil: Subverted. He and the Joker trade blows a couple times, but it's with the GoodCounterpart Luthor from the Regime universe.
* [[spoiler:FamousLastWords: "[[KirkSummation Your]] [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans "peace"]]... [[DefiantToTheEnd is a]] [[CrapsackWorld joke]]."]]
* FictionFiveHundred: Which he bequeaths to Batman in the Dark Knight's ending.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Can call one down from his KillSat as a special move.
* GeniusBruiser: Though the second part is only due to his PoweredArmor.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Subverted in the Regime universe. That version of Luthor claims to never have been a criminal and serves as the Insurgency's [[TheMole mole]]. Of course, [[UnreliableNarrator this is Luthor we're talking about]], so it's unknown if he's telling the truth or if he was just efficient enough to never be caught, even by Superman. Either way, he's genuinely heroic, unlike his counterpart in the non-Regime universe.]]
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice: Dies trying to disable Superman with a Kryptonite gun when he was fatally wounded by Shazam and killed by Superman.]]
* IFightForTheStrongestSide: He claims that he joined the Regime because "he always chooses the winning side". [[spoiler:Subverted though as it turns out he's TheMole for the Insurgency]].
* JetPack: His PoweredArmor has flight rockets on his back, gloves, and boots.
* KillSat: While he can zap his opponents with one as a special move, his Supermove gets an interesting variation. Lex has the beam target ''himself'' so he can concentrate its power into an EnergyBall to personally chuck it at his opponent, the explosion from which gets a DistantReactionShot.
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal: By Superman]].
* LaResistance: Serves as TheMole in Superman's Regime for the Insurgency.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Doing a Meter Burn while calling down his orbital laser will replace it with three missiles.
* TheMole: Serves as one for the Insurgency, infiltrating the ranks of the Regime.
* NiceGuy: In stark contrast to his mainstream counterpart. This Luthor was apparently never a criminal, and while the mainstream Luthor is polite and compromising as a means of being condescending and manipulative, this Luthor is polite and compromising and is ''totally sincere.'' This is best exemplified in a scene during the plot where Regime Superman comes by to talk to him - even through he is at that very moment [[spoiler:plotting to take him down]], he still gives Superman some very heartfelt words about Lois.
** This is done especially well, as - [[ItWasHisSled used to this sort of thing from Luthor]] - the player is probably sitting by waiting for Luthor to betray them, especially as he does some secretive actions that make it seem like he is about to... [[spoiler:and then [[NotHisSled he never does]]]].
* PoweredArmor: He wears a bulkier rendition of his trademark armor.
* ShockAndAwe: He has a technological polearm that can shoot electrical blasts. He can also lay electric mine traps.
** StaticStunGun: His Supermove begins with an electrified palm strike that restrains his opponent long enough for his EnergyBall to charge up.
* SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: "No good comes from hero worship."
* SuperStrength: Thanks to artificial enhancement by his PoweredArmor.
* YouWillNotEvadeMe: Has some kind of short-range TractorBeam that draws opponents closer.

-->''"It made sense at first...[[PayEvilUntoEvil bad people got what they deserved.]] [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope But now,]] [[MoralEventHorizon it's going too far!]]"''
!!!Voiced by: Joey Naber

* {{Badass}}: He's generally considered one of the few heroes who is a match for Superman in one-on-one combat, either due to simply being as powerful as Superman or owing to his mystical nature.
** BadassCape: More like a Badass Cloak, but same principle.
* BlackCloak
* CleopatraNose: A RareMaleExample.
* [[spoiler:CruelAndUnusualDeath: Regime Superman starts off by choking him. When Shazam attempts to counter by summoning his magic lightning with "Shazam!", Superman cuts him off by freezing his mouth and throat shut. Then Superman uses his heat vision to roast through Shazam's skull to the other side]].
* [[spoiler:DeathByIrony: He saves Superman from being incapacitated by Lex Luthor, who just told him that "no good comes from hero worship." Superman murders him soon afterwards after Shazam tries to talk him out of a MoralEventHorizon.]]
* EvilCostumeSwitch: After joining the New Regime he gets a new outfit which notably features a BlackCloak.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Joins the New Regime at some point, serving as an emissary to the subjugated Atlantis alongside a pre-HeelFaceTurn Flash.
** [[BewareTheSuperman Beware Shazam]]
** [[spoiler:HeelFaceDoorSlam: When he tries to convince Superman that he's going too far, Superman [[ShutUpKirk freezes his mouth shut]] and applies HeatVision to his forehead… lethally.]]
** HeWhoFightsMonsters[=/=]KnightTemplar[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: And in the case of the latter, that includes subjugating Atlantis.
** NotSoDifferent[=/=]{{Hypocrite}}: He's now become exactly like Black Adam. However, this is more due to his WideEyedIdealist standpoint, as he believes that Superman, being... [[TheParagon Superman]], is right.
* [[spoiler:HeelRealization: During Superman's VillainousBreakdown but unfortunately it gets him killed.]]
* [[spoiler:InfantImmortality: Tragically averted. Superman gives him HeatVision to the eyes so hard that he stains the back of his hood. Grundy sadly volunteers to dig him a grave.]]
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal: Superman kills him for speaking out against his retaliatory plans for the Insurgency.]]
** [[spoiler:KillTheCutie: By far the nicest member of the New Regime, he's the only one who is killed.]]
* PayEvilUntoEvil: Apparently has no problem with this, given that he said that the New Regime made sense to him initially when it was just giving the bad guys what they deserved. It was only after the Regime started to fully embrace their KnightTemplar ideologies that he cried foul.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His New Regime outfit adds a BlackCloak to his usual red outfit, as well as black gloves and boots.
* [[spoiler:SpannerInTheWorks: To Alternate Lex Luthor's plan to kill Regime Superman.]]
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: With Regime Flash, they spend most of the game together. [[spoiler:His death is what causes Flash to finally quit the Regime.]]
* TokenGoodTeammate: To the Regime, as its clear that he's with it because he genuinely believes there doing the right thing, and even then is the only one who openly questions whether or not the Regime is right anymore, remembering how Superman [[spoiler:killed Green Arrow]]. He ultimately [[spoiler:tries to point out to the other Regime members how they've [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope jumped off the slippery slope]] but Superman [[MoralEventHorizon kills him.]]]]
* [[WhatTheHellHero What The Hell, Superman?]]: He tries to do this during [[spoiler:Superman's VillainousBreakdown and it gets him killed.]]
* WideEyedIdealist: As usual. Horribly [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructed]] though, because his idealism and naive belief that Superman is right by virtue of being Superman allow him to become a mindless follower of the New Regime. [[LampshadeHanging Luthor even calls him out on this]], saying that no good comes from hero worship. Indeed, [[spoiler:Superman ultimately [[MoralEventHorizon kills Shazam]] [[WhatTheHellHero when he calls Superman out on]] [[FallenHero how far he's fallen]].]]

[[folder:Regime Aquaman]]
!!!Voiced by: Creator/PhilLaMarr
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: King of Atlantis, though he doesn't do as good a job of it as his counterpart.
* {{Badass}}: King of Atlantis, lord over all oceans, and controls all life that dwells within. Since he is from Atlantis, he has all the physical resistances you'd expect from living at the sea floor.
* BeardOfEvil: This version of Aquaman eventually grows one.
* BladeOnAStick[=/=]ProngsOfPoseidon: Wields his iconic trident.
* BlondGuysAreEvil
* BullyingADragon: To ''Superman'' in the prequel comic. Batman even calls him an idiot.
* [[spoiler:TheCavalry: A rare villainous example. He leads an army of Atlanteans against the Insurgency forces, but Wonder Woman arrives with an Amazon army to head him off.]]
* [[ThreateningShark Everything's Worse With Sharks]]: As his Supermove clearly shows.
* FaceHeelTurn: And his heroic alternate self [[WhatTheHellHero is unimpressed.]]
* GenreSavvy: He and Batman are the only heroes who are perceptive enough to know [[CrapsackWorld what Superman's new world order will lead to]].
** GenreBlindness: And yet he winds up joining the Regime anyway.
* TheGoodKing[=/=]ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He considers himself this, but the heroic version just views him as [[StupidSurrender craven]].
-->'''Regime Aquaman''': What would you have me do?
-->'''Heroic Aquaman''': Yield! [[TakeThat It's what you do!]]
* HalfHumanHybrid: Atlanteans are humans with a handful of fish-like qualities like breathing water and surviving oceanic pressure.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: He very briefly takes on this mentality in the prequel comic when he and his people start attacking whalers.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Controlling sea life is lame? The Kraken begs to differ.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: He tries to justify himself this way, but his heroic counterpart isn't buying it.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: His Supermove has him skewer his opponent on the trident and hoist him/her upwards to use as chum for a ThreateningShark.
* KickTheDog: His attacks on whalers in the prequel comic.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: Why he yielded to the New Regime in the first place.
* MakingASplash: As one might expect, the King of Atlantis uses a lot of water-based magic. He can teleport sections of his trident through small pools, he can create a temporary wave-like shield, and his Supermove involves flooding the arena so a ThreateningShark can join the fray.
* [[spoiler:NotSoDifferent: In his ending, he responds to the fall of One Earth's Regime by consolidating control over the oceans, and then the surface into a similar United Earth.]]
* PayEvilUntoEvil: He and his Atlanteans attack whalers in the prequel comic, intending to kill them for their butchering of whales.
* PetTheDog: He tells Wonder Woman to tell Superman that he's [[spoiler:sorry about Lois.]] Remember that this is ''after'' he and his people were on the receiving end of a KickTheDog moment from Superman.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Too bad it's nothing good.
* ShockAndAwe: He can channel electricity through his trident during his throw, while he has his opponent pinned to the floor.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: He doesn't simply ''speak'' to fish; he implants his will into their minds.
* ThreateningShark: His BattleIntro features him swimming alongside an entourage of extremely big sharks with even larger teeth. His Supermove lets him flood the arena to feed his opponent to one.

* AnimalMotif: In case her name wasn't a giveaway, a hawk.
* BareYourMidriff: With her primary costume.
* BloodKnight: Even worse than her heroic counterpart in this respect.
* [[spoiler:BrainwashedAndCrazy: According to her Classic Battle ending, this was the only thing keeping Hawkgirl loyal to him, as Hawkman was murdered by Superman.]]
* CoolMask: Designed to enforce the [[AnimalMotif hawk motif]]. Unlike her primary costume, her costume here has it be more like a mask.
* DarkActionGirl: She's every bit the BloodKnight her heroic counterpart is, if not worse.
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Like other members of the New Regime, she changes to her secondary costume after joining them.
* {{Expy}}: Of Justice Lords Hawkgirl.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Is shown in Aquaman's debut trailer to be among the New Regime forces.
** [[BewareTheSuperman Beware The Hawkgirl]]
** [[HeWhoFightsMonsters She Who Fights Monsters]]: She's always been a bit more prone to violence than the average hero, but now she's really [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope jumped off the slippery slope]].
** KnightTemplar[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: As with the other followers of the New Regime.
* {{Flight}}: By way of artificial [[{{Unobtainium}} Nth metal]] wings. By flapping them, they also allow her to remain in the air after a jump.
* ImpossiblyLowNeckline: A feature of her Regime costume.
* MeteorMove: Her Supermove has her yank her opponent into the air, let him or her go, and fly by for two solid mace whacks to the head.
* [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]]: She's a Thanagarian, a HumanAlien race that are prone to waging war and are also usually fairly arrogant to boot.
* RedHeadedHero: Fully visible with her Regime costume and [[spoiler:Classic Mode ending]].
** EvilRedhead: After joining the New Regime.
* RedemptionRejection
-->'''Lex Luthor''': I'm giving you a chance. [[TechnicalPacifist End this without further bloodshed.]]

* [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks Throwing Your Mace Always Works]]: She is able to lob her mace at her opponent.
* [[spoiler:WidowWoman: According to her Classic Battle ending, Superman had her husband Hawkman captured and murdered.]]

-->''"Superman's victory will hasted my father's return. And all shall bow before him."''
!!!Voiced by: Creator/TaraStrong

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Her skin is red, further emphasizing her demonic nature.
* AnimalMotif: Which is further emphasized by her BattleIntro (which has her entering in the form of a large spectral raven) and her ranged attacks, which are in the form of ravens.
* BadPowersBadPeople: Since giving into her father's influence in full.
* DarkIsEvil: In contrast to her usual DarkIsNotEvil.
* DarkActionGirl: Since giving into her father's DemonicPossession in full, her dark powers have likely become all the more dangerous.
** BadassCape: A BlackCloak.
* DemonicPossession: Seems to now be permanently stuck in it.
* DragonWithAnAgenda: Only following Superman until her father is strong enough to take over.
* EvilCostumeSwitch: When with the Regime she takes on a slightly different outfit and also succumbs to her father's DemonicPossession again, making her skin red. Mainstream Wonder Woman even {{lampshades}} it.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Likely a side-effect of her DemonicPossession.
* FaceHeelTurn[=/=]FallenHero: Confirmed in Green Lantern's story trailer to be with the New Regime.
** [[HeWhoFightsMonsters She Who Fights Monsters]][=/=]KnightTemplar[=/=]UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: As with all other followers of New Regime philosophy. [[spoiler:Subverted, as what she ''really'' wants amounts to DystopiaJustifiesTheMeans.]]

* {{Flight}}: Like with many flying characters, [[PowerFloats she has a hovering default stance]].
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Her SuperpoweredEvilSide makes them glow yellow and grants her two more ExtraEyes.
* HalfHumanHybrid: She's the half-human daughter of [[BigRedDevil Trigon]] [[DemonLordsAndArchDevils the]] [[GodOfEvil Terrible]].
* InTheHood: As part of her BlackCloak.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: Her demonic blood grants her powerful magic.
* OldFriend: To Nightwing and Cyborg, as all three were on the Teen Titans together. [[spoiler:Less so with the new Nightwing, since they weren't on the same team at all.]]
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: Well, she's only a half-demon for starters. Her Regime self emphasizes her demonic nature more than her normal version.
* PeoplePuppets: Capable of it, and uses it on [[spoiler:Green Arrow]] to make him fight [[spoiler:Insurgency Batman]].
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Her Regime outfit plays with this. While her skin turns a reddish colour, her already black clothing takes a slight purplish glow[=/=]tint.
* TheStoic: She tends to not be a very sunny or outgoing person, and often comes off as very brooding.
* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Her special ability has her temporarily give in to Trigon's influence, turning her skin red, tinting her clothing purple, giving her [[ExtraEyes fo]][[FourIsDeath ur]] GlowingEyesOfDoom, and amplifying her demonic powers. And here she seems to be permanently stuck in it.
* TeleportersAndTransporters: She has the ability to teleport, and her Supermove involves sending her an opponent into a demonic dimension that her father resides in.
* ThighHighBoots: Owing to the dominant female fashion trend in NRS' MortalKombat.
* [[spoiler:TokenEvilTeammate: To the Regime. Unlike most, she doesn't even try to pretend she is working for Superman's "peace". She's just thinking that once that peace is achieved, [[FromBadToWorse her father Trigon will shortly follow]]. This is likely due to her DemonicPossession, however.]]
* TractorBeam: Her magic frequently manifests itself this way, and she usually then uses her magic to harm her opponent while they're immobilized.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: Her voice has a noticeable echo to it, which may or may not be a side effect of Trigon's [[DemonicPossession influence]].
