Superman is on a rampage, forcing the Justice League into war – All new DC animated film Injustice releases on 4K blu-ray in October

DC surprised fans of the popular video game Injustice: Gods Among Us by announcing a new DC animated film, simply titled Injustice, inspired by the game. Coming to 4K blu-ray, blu-ray, and digital in October, Injustice follows an alternate timeline where The Joker has tricked Superman into killing Lois Lane, which then sends Superman on a rampage. While I enjoy Superman as a hero, I’ve always thought seeing him as a villain would be far more entertaining – how do you defeat the world’s strongest superhero?
