Midway sent us a little present today: new screenshots of their upcoming fighting mash-up Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. It looks like the spandex-clad characters are pretty much true to their graphic novel forms, with Superman showing off his new Optic Blast-like heat vision and tornado spinning thing. Oh, and the battle settings include the Batcave, Metropolis, a Gotham City rooftop, and, yes, Hell itself.
Finally, also announced is a Comic-con Q&A panel with MK co-creator Ed Boon and comic artist Jimmy Palmiotti where additional game details (i.e. more characters and settings) and new gameplay videos will be unveiled. Hit the jump for the press release and all of the new screenshots.

The graphics look pretty cool but how do they explain the dudes from MK able to go up against guys like Superman and the Flash? Do you have to play a match perfectly for 30 minutes to beat Superman or what?

This game looks extremely stupid, hey Ed u still on crack? I'm a huge MK fan and now you really sold out and completely ruined the game. Way to rip off the opposite of Marvel vs street fighter. That game it worked because it was cartoon characters vs cartoon. But cartoon vs what used to supposedly be real combatants vs each other was cool. You should have stayed with the idea of making the characters look more real and add depth to the game's story, now the plot/story has gone to hell. I was going to buy a PS3 just for the new MK until if saw some pictures of DC comic's was a part of it. Ohh well atleast I saved some money.

They'll probably put a small piece of kryptonite in the center of the fight zone or as a talisman for his opponent's costume to bring Superman down a few notches so he's not invincible and can't fly around frying everybody with his laser eyeballs. At least they should, if they want to present even a semblance of realism and continuity.
