History TearJerker / InjusticeGodsAmongUs

** Really, the whole Regime's attack on cities. Before, Regime at least somewhat could justify their actions as necessary. Now? It's an atrocity, showing they became truly worse than criminals they fought.

** Superman is affected by Kryptonite-induced Fear Toxin, which makes him envision Lois as Doomsday. He grapples her, and flies her out into the upper atmosphere whilst Batman ''desperately'' tries to get through to him. The moment he does manage to tell Superman that he's with Lois and not Doomsday, Superman has shaken off the effects of the Toxin, whilst ''in space'' and with tears in his eyes, sees Lois's dead body floating away from him. And to make things worse, Joker [[DeadManSwitch rigged a nuclear bomb to her heartbeat]], which detonates and blows up Metropolis. What really sells it, is when Superman ''hears the heartbeat of Lois and their unborn child stop'' just as the Toxin wears off. The narration that accompanies it is ''heartbreaking''.

* Year Five #25: [[spoiler: Batman delivers a much needed beatdown on Regime!Superman in NoHoldsBarredBeatdown way, clutches his neck in grip and questions Damian if this is he wanted "to become a killer [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim like Clark.]]" The difference is that he was bluffing, whereas Damian doesn't when he tries to kill Bruce.]]

--> And then two heartbeats coming from one person -- stop beating.

** And then you learn the reason behind Jor-El's cryptic comments about "the outsiders" abandoning them: the Guardians '''[[NeglectfulPrecursors left their planet to die]].''' Made even worse in ''[[VideoGame/Injustice2 the sequel]] when you realise they left them at the mercy of '''ComicBook/{{Brainiac}}'''.

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy. [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans Regime]]. [[KnightTemplar Injustice!Superman and his supporters]], [[FallenHero who, while villainous]], [[VillainHasAPoint have a point]]. Hypocrisy of Batman, his constant failures, ending in many deaths, and growing Superman's evil. The whole story is very tragic, and [[NightmareFuel much]] [[TearJerker more]] will happen, before things will get better in the game.
* The whole prequel series so far. They start with Superman about to have a kid with Lois, Batman and Superman being buddies, Batman being told Superman and Lois want him to be the godfather of their child in a string of HeartwarmingMoments...[[YankTheDogsChain and then]] [[spoiler:Jimmy Olsen]] is murdered by The Joker, Joker manipulates Superman into killing [[spoiler:Lois Lane and their unborn child]] and then [[spoiler:Joker [[NukeEm nukes]] Metropolis.]] How can one not cry over that?

** And just to drive the point home: [[spoiler:After all the misery, all the deaths...''the Joker [[TheBadGuyWins won]]''. [[KarmaHoudini And he died knowing this.]]]]

-->[[spoiler:'''Regime Superman:''' I could have prevented Metropolis! Saved my '''family'''!]]
-->[[spoiler:'''Insurgency Batman:''' Crime took my family too, Clark.]]

* Bruce [[spoiler:lost both of his sons. He had to renounce Damian when he betrayed him and then killed Dick Grayson.]]
--> "[[spoiler:[[IHaveNoSon You stopped being my son when you killed Dick Grayson]]. ''He'' was my son.]]"

--> "I miss Superman. I miss the guy who actually inspired people. The Superman who had time to help a kid who fell off a bike. Before he was changed. Before he gritted his teeth and looked angry all the time. Before he became all hard and dark because people, supposedly, needed him to. I miss the City of Tomorrow-- --and the man of yesterday."

* The WhamEpisode in Year Two that reveals Gordon [[spoiler:according to Superman, has lung cancer from smoking.]]

* Year Two #19: Though it's a ForegoneConclusion, it's still sad: [[spoiler:Regime!Green Lantern was kicked from his Corps, and joined Sinestro's.]]

* Regime!Superman at the end. He's lost everything - His wife, His child, His friends, His morality, and is now imprisoned. And, judging by his expression at the end of game, [[{{Revenge}} who knows what terrible thoughts are running though his head now]]?

* Year Five #25: [[spoiler: Batman delivers a much needed beatdown on Regime!Superman in NoHoldsBarredBeatdown way, clutches his neck in grip and questions Damian if this is he wanted: spoiler:"to become a killer [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim like Clark."]] The difference is that he was bluffing, whereas Damian doesn't when he tries to kill Bruce.]]

->'''Mirror Master''': Its not right. But maybe you fellas lucked out. [[CrapsackWorld 'Cause living in this backwards Regime world ain't worth it]].

* Year Five #19: [[spoiler: A brainwashed Doomsday kills Bizarro, after Lex manipulates him into going to the Fortress of Solitude to tie loose ends, though Lex is clearly grieving that he has to do that. ]]

* According to Damian Superman is more of a father than Batman ever was. Hearing this make you wonder that if a tyrant Superman is more of a father than a good Batman what kind of a father Superman would have become if he remained one of the good guys.

* Regime!Superman at the end. He's lost everything - His wife, His child, His friends, His morality, and is now imprisoned. And, judging by his expression at the end of game, [[{{Revenge}} who knows what terrible thoughts does he think now]]?

* Year Five #25: [[spoiler: Batman ''finally'' defeats Regime!Superman in NoHoldsBarredBeatdown way, clutches his neck in grip and urges Damian to allow him to snap it, in order to stop his son from killing Zsasz.

** Really, the whole issue. Later, when [[spoiler: Flash escapes, he goes to see Iris, who's enraged due his abandoning of her and not living up to the promice to her of stopping Superman if he went too far. And what's more, she and her colleagues later got arrested by Regime and Regime-aligned criminals due to being Barry's friends...]]

** [[spoiler: It was Iris who told that to Flash. Basically, that's why he is a BrokenPedestal to her - he hasn't saved the boy, though he could've.]]
** [[spoiler: The worst of all is that Barry was having a serious conflict of loyalties, and may have been even considering going back in time to stop all of it, but unfortunately finding the people he love lose their faith and stand against conviced him that what happened was something they deserved.]]

** It's worse [[spoiler: Guy didn't give up trying to save Hal from becoming a villain, and ended up getting his arm torn off and dropped to his death.]]

* Year Five #28: Remember Galaxor? The superpowered boy from the Year First who tried to stand to Superman and whose spine was broken by him and Wonder Woman? [[spoiler: He committed suicide soon after. To me, it's the most tragic fate. And the most tragic moment here.]]
