* ItsAllMyFault: He feels that Superman's present state is his own doing because he couldn't stop him from JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope. When it comes to the events ''leading up'' to that, on the other hand...

* NeverMyFault: Zigzagged. While he blames himself for not being able to prevent Superman's FaceHeelTurn, he staunchly denies that not killing the Joker makes him partially responsible for the destruction he caused to anyone who levels a MurderByInaction accusation at him, despite the fact that all he ever did to stop the insane clown was to have him locked up at [[CardboardPrison Arkham Asylum]], despite knowing there was virtually no way he could be redeemed there or imprisoned for good — or, as implied by his [[LameComeback failure to refute]] Damian's ArmorPiercingQuestion [[NotSoDifferent about whether he would have]] done the same thing as Supes did and taken the HeWhoFightsMonsters route if the Joker nuked Gotham instead of Metropolis, that he ''does'' agree with them on some level. And even the Joker himself opines that Batman's misplaced mercy makes him accountable for it, but he ''still'' won't accept it.

* EasilyForgiven: Batman and his allies are largely forgiving of his role with the Regime. Justified since Barry eventually defected to the Insurgency and helped take the Regime down. It helps that he was also never involved in the Regime's more atrocious activities and had clearly been in denial for a long time.

* {{Adorkable}}: He acts ''very'' giddy towards older heroes in certain intros and clashes.

* ChivalrousPervert: Endlessly amused with Supergirl's comments about [[AccidentalInnuendo "tickling"]] her.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Firestorm is a traditional hero and very {{adorkable}}, with that said, if the situation gets bad enough [[spoiler:he is not above threatening his enemies with excessive force such as ''nuking them'', making him the only one of Batman's allies to consider such measure]].

** PrinciplesZealot. He foolishly adheres to GoodIsOldFashioned, despite the Regime's claims that after Metropolis, they must change their methods on crime.

* ArmorPiercingResponse: Flash's response when Cyborg insists that the Regime did the right thing? "Two words: Billy Batson."

* BiTheWay: Her relationship with Ivy is alluded in some intros with Harley even point-blank asking her for marriage and saying the two have been "more than friends". In the prequel comic, the two share a kiss, confirming that their relationship was indeed romantic. In the game, few mentions are made to this, and Ivy treats Harley as more of an enemy. Harley even mentions that she and Ivy team up again and "drive all the boys crazy". Later, Ivy merely hypnotizes Harley with her pheromones, nearly killing her when she goes into shock.

* {{Foil}}: In a way, Barry and Hal are this to Harley and Ivy. Both duos were HeterosexualLifePartners whose friendships eventually went south in the ''Injustice'' universe. However, while Harley and Ivy never mend their friendship, with the latter even [[spoiler:mortally poisoning the former at one point]], Barry and Hal reconcile and agree to help each other out on the road to redemption.
** Harley and Ivy kissed and slept together in the tie-in comic, so, if you consider the comic canon, [[SubvertedTrope the heterosexual part is absent]].

** In a way, Hal and Barry are this to Harley and Ivy. Both duos were HeterosexualLifePartners whose friendships eventually went south in the ''Injustice'' universe. However, while Harley and Ivy never mend their friendship, with the latter even [[spoiler:mortally poisoning the former at one point]], Hal and Barry reconcile and agree to help each other out on the road to redemption.

** In a way, Harley and Ivy are this to Hal and Barry. Both duos were HeterosexualLifePartners whose friendships eventually went south in the ''Injustice'' universe. However, while Hal and Barry reconcile and agree to help each other out on the road to redemption, Harley and Ivy never mend their friendship, with the latter even [[spoiler:mortally poisoning the former at one point.]] Harley and Ivy are also missing the "[[BiTheWay heterosexual]]" part of "[[LesYay life partners]]".

* DatingCatwoman: The prequel comics reveal that she was once in a relationship with Poison Ivy. In the game, while Harley clearly still has feelings for her, Ivy has lost any affection she once had for her.

-->'''Harley Quinn:''' Red? You're with them?

* BiTheWay: Her relationship with Ivy is alluded in some intros with Harley even point-blank asking her for marriage and saying the two have been "more than friends". In the prequel comic, the two share a kiss, confirming that their relationship was indeed romantic.

* RunningGag: As usual, [[RedBaron the Fastest Man Alive]] [[NeverLiveItDown is never on time for anything.]]

* MyGreatestFailure: His time with the Regime to an even greater degree than Flash, to the extent that he admits to Atrocitus that he hates himself for it. See NeverLiveItDown below.

* NeverLiveItDown: [[invoked]] Despite having shed his past as a Regime member and having become a genuine Green Lantern and hero again, he still can't live down the fact that he once served Superman and wore the Yellow Power Ring. Apart from Flash, many of the other characters don't trust him, and his battle intros often consist of others refusing to accept him, much to his dismay.

* RebuiltPedestal: NeverLiveItDown and MyGreatestFailure issues aside, he does prove that he's [[TheAtoner atoning for his time in the Regime]], and [[spoiler:likely joins the Justice League that Batman is rebuilding in the Absolute Justice ending]].

* TheProtagonist: To Superman's {{Deuteragonist}} and Supergirl's {{Tritagonist}}. He's the overall main character of ''Injustice 2'''s story who drives the plot forward as TheHero. [[spoiler:However, in the [[BadEnding Absolute Power ending]] he becomes a DecoyProtagonist instead]].

Black Canary fought against Superman and his allies, but got sent to another universe when Dr. Fate intervened to save her life. There, she met another Green Arrow, who she married, and the two returned to her universe of origin to help Batman secure the world once the Regime was toppled.

The Green Arrow of the Injustice-verse died after an ill-advised decision to shoot Superman with an arrow backfired horribly when he accidentally wounded Pa Kent on the rebound. This Green Arrow, however, is from another universe, one in which he lost his wife, his fortune and his chance to be a superhero. Introduced to an alternate version of his wife who came with another him's baby in her arms, he enjoyed happiness for years until the threat of new parties forced Dr. Fate to bring him and Dinah to the Injustice-verse to help Batman face them. Having inherited all of his AlternateSelf's fortune and equipment, Oliver Queen once again takes to the field as Green Arrow, a champion of the common man as gods battle for the fate of the world.

** She's one to Wonder Woman. Both are experienced fighters who constantly put themselves on the line for what they believe in (freedom for Canary, the Regime's totalitarian control for Wonder Woman) and hold a grudge for those who they deem traitors. Even their first and last names sound similar (Diana, Dinah / Prince, Lance)! However whereas Dinah is shown to care for her teammates and the innocent victims involved in Brainiac's invasion, Diana has no problem in sacrificing either concept by justifying it as a sacrifice to the greater good. Most notably, Dinah is a seen as a [[BarBrawl barroom fighter]] with a {{Dark Is Not Evil}} theme, whereas the Amazon Princess is a much more traditionally trained warrior with a {{Light Is Not Good}} theme.

* CostumeEvolution: She gets a noticeably different look compared to the first ''Injustice'' appearance coinciding with her overall redesign to resemble her ''Film/SuicideSquad'' appearance.

* MythologyGag: As in the recent comics, she's redesigned to resemble her ''Film/SuicideSquad'' counterpart. She even looks an awful lot like Creator/MargotRobbie face-wise.

* TechnicalPacifist: As Damian points out in the first chapter of the Story Mode, Batman not killing anyone, doesn't mean he's unwilling to [[FateWorseThanDeath severely cripple them]].

* GrayEyes: That don't have irises (while the character portrait and cutscenes depicts him with irises, Hal lacks them in the actual gameplay).

-->'''Brainiac:''' [[DamnedByFaintPraise At best, a fourth level intellect]].

* DarkIsNotEvil: Like in most versions, He wears a dark bat costume and one of the good guys who never did a FaceHeelTurn.

* ReforgedIntoAMinion: [[spoiler:Using Brainiac's tech after killing him in the "Absolute Power" ending, Superman condemns Batman to a FateWorseThanDeath by turning him into a brainwashed cybernetic minion. He even threatens Supergirl with a similar fate if she refuses to become TheDragon to his newly restored Regime.]]

* ThouShaltNotKill: While Superman and his followers [[VillainHasAPoint have a valid point]] on how sparing dangerous villains such as Brainiac and the Joker puts more innocent lives at risk, [[DeconReconSwitch their argument is negated]] in the fact that not killing avoids JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope. Also, Batman points out that while one murder may have horrified them initially, constantly breaking the no-kill rule has [[ItGetsEasier not only desensitized them to violence]], it also made the Regime look NotSoDifferent from the criminals they were trying to execute.

* RoleReprisal: As before, he's voiced by his Franchise/{{DCAU}} voice actor who has been voicing him since ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' in ''1992''.

* RoleReprisal: An odd case. His voice actor from the first game, Creator/NealMcDonough, has not returned, but his ''VideoGame/MortalKombatVsDCUniverse'' voice actor has come back to the role.

* RoleReprisal: Her ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'' voice actor returns.

* RoleReprisal: As before, he's voiced by his ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'' voice actor.

* RoleReprisal: As before, she's voiced by her voice actress from the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'', post-''Asylum''.

* NotSoDifferent: In the tie-in comics, he is compared to Superman by a US senator who accuses Batman of [[WhatTheHellHero constantly acting on his own without any imput of people around him]], which [[NiceJobBreakingItHero lead to catastrophic consequences]] and hammers home that the only real difference between him and Superman is that Superman was more ''effective'' than Batman. On a much darker side, he elects to use Kryponite-infused [[SupernaturalFearInducer fear toxin]] against [[spoiler:Zod]] when he goes into PapaWolf mode, ''the exact same weapon'' that Joker used on Superman to cause so many problems for the world in the first place.

* SympathyForTheDevil: He deeply regrets Captain Cold having been so utterly consumed by bitterness and anger that [[RevengeBeforeReason he's joined the Society]]. Flash understandably feels responsible for it as a former part of the Regime and tries to appeal to his old [[FriendlyEnemy frenemy]] in the story and battle intros. [[spoiler:In Cold's arcade ending they make amends and team up as crimefighters.]]

* NonindicativeName: Like several other {{Color Character}}s, shaders can make him different colours but his name remains the same. See {{Emotional Powers}} above.

* RebuiltPedestal: NeverLiveItDown and MyGreatestFailure issues aside, he does prove that he's [[TheAtoner atoning for his time in the Regeime]], and [[spoiler:likely joins the Justice League that Batman is rebuilding in the Absolute Justice ending]].

* HiddenDepths: While she may come off as abrasive and cynical, her interactions with Atrocitus, Flash, Green Lantern and Superman show that Dinah still harbours plenty of rage against the Regime and those who supported it. She's also [[MamaBear extremely protective of her son]] given her arcade ending and her interactions with [[AdultFear Wonder Woman and Scarecrow]]. Finally, she's an extremely loyal friend to Batman and has no qualms beating down anyone who threatens him to perpetual disablement.

* NiceHat: Some of his gear options can have him wear a variety of hats, including the Robin Hood-esique feathered cap which has been considered an iconic part of his costume.
* NonindicativeName: Like several other {{Color Character}}s, shaders can make him different colours but his name remains the same.

* NonindicativeName: Like several other {{Color Character}}s, shaders can make him different colours but his name remains the same.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: To Grodd. He arrogantly calls him a "big, dumb monkey", a woefully inaccurate description of Grodd, who of course takes great offence. In Story Mode, however, where their power levels are not equalized for gameplay reasons, [[spoiler:Grodd is able to completely dominate his mind and uses him like a puppet, implying Beetle fought him offscreen and lost]].

A young jock and a well-aged professor, Jason Rusch and Martin Stein have little in common, except that they both make up half the mind of Firestorm, a physical representation of the infinite radio-alchemical dimension known as the Firestorm Matrix. They fuse together to release these unrivalled powers to make fire for Batman.

* DownerEnding: His Ladder Ending, to put it mildly, does not go well. [[spoiler:Yes, Brainiac is dead, but the [[HeroInsurance collateral damage is unsalvageable]], countless innocents died because of Jason and Stein's recklessness and both of them are too ashamed of themselves to continue being Firestorm.]]

* NotSoSimilar: Claims to be NotSoDifferent from Wonder Woman. When Diana asked how much blood she had spilt, she admitted it was a lot, then added she was trying to impress the wrong guy and claims it's the same for Wonder Woman with Superman. Putting aside the blatant differences between the people they killed and why,[[note]]Harley and Joker killed innocent people [[ForTheEvulz because they thought it was funny]], Wonder Woman and Superman killed [[PayEvilUntoEvil mostly criminals and supervillains]] [[WithUsOrAgainstUs as well as some good people who opposed them]] [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans for the greater good]][[/note]] Superman has generally treated Wonder Woman with respect, even if [[AllLoveIsUnrequited he didn't return her affections]], and made strong arguments for his cause, whereas the Joker was never a good man and Harley only believed otherwise because she was [[NaiveNewcomer young and gullible]] when she first met him. While the general point (Wonder Woman committed horrific crimes to please someone) the comparison is still flimsy.

* NotSoStoic: He has his moments, such as the PrecisionFStrike below.
