The Justice League WILL Return in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League 

3:53 One problem with the Earth 2 theory, there’s a banner of the Justice League that shows Wally West as the Flash & Hal Jordan as Green Lantern

When the league wakes up n everyone stares at Superman n he just stands there with the “Im the reason why we all got brainwashed cuz I was too stupid to realize entering a ship that’s designed as a skull with the intent of diplomacy is a terrible idea” face

The fact that Superman is no longer weak to kryptonite is hilarious because that implies that the League heroes are more powerful and have more immunity than normal. So this game is really trying to save these four Squad members somehow took out OP versions of the Justice League with no problem. The game didn't even bother killing one of the Squad members

Justice League: Kill the Suicide Squad.

Also Green Lantern's hologram in Hall of Justice say's that the ring *choose's* it's wearer, meaning that the Green lantern that they killed was a clone

SPOILER 🚨 The league being clones would explain why Diana got such a big send off she’s the only one who actually bit the bullet

So you're not mentioning that audio leak of the flash (Barry) reacting to being resurrected and how that process messed with his nervous system needing him to recover.

When you brought up the fact, that Superman wasn’t talking at all, when Fighting Wonder Woman! That brought up something, I remembered Batman saying to Brainiac about Superman “not being ready”. that’s another dead giveaway that these are clones of the League! I was watching either H20 Delirious, or Cartoonz, play through of the game! so you can use that as a source of where to find that line from Batman. Or just hear all of Batman’s lines!

Earth 2’s flash is Wally west. Hal Jordan is also the green lantern there. There was a justice day banner when you went to earth 2 somewhere.

they gotta be clones because GL lineup was still crispy after 3 weeks of doing patrol and fighting...not a durag in sight lol

I heard a theory that the clones had to have their good selves inside because some of their consciousness is required to use their powers. Batman, Green Lantern and the Flash especially need some sort of innovation or intellect to fight crime. If they were as smart as they usually are, they would be free from the mind control. Brainiac could've reduced certain aspects of their intellect to serve him. Explains why Superman and the flash just pancake you and why Green lantern doesn't use more of his creativity. Also, to add to your theory, the Superman we fight in the boss goes fast enough to create sonic booms. The Flash of this universe was stated to only reach past the sound barrier at fastest, and the Flash boss phases to get out of Diana's Lasso, which at least in the Flash show has been shown to need speeds higher than the sound barrier to work. Weird, right?

I thought it was strange a Flash clone could be good too but my friend brought up the fact that he would need the same memories in order to be at their peak, having their knowledge of past experiences. Also they’re not from Earth 2, or at least Flash and Lantern aren’t. When you actually go to Earth 2 after killing Flash you can see posters of Earth 2 Justice League. Earth 2 having Wally West Flash and Hal Jordan Green Lantern.

Earth 2's Flash is Wally West so we know the flash we fight is probably not from earth 2 otherwise why would brainiac take the presumably older Barry instead of the presumably younger Wally.

Tbf I knew they wouldn’t cause they would of probably known they would get a lot of backlash so they knew to bring them back

The part where you mentioned that the real Arkhamverse Batman would talk and lose like this is a really interesting point because in the first boss fight, why didn't he use fear gas at that time and just handle the Suicide Squad like they were the average thugs? Two, he kept saying "I am vengeance, I am the night, I am Batman" quote more than once and didn't talk down to Harley Quinn similar to how the BTAS episode of Mad Love during the death scene of Batman in the game.

Here is my theory, the “Justice League” were clones like you said, but Braniac didn’t have enough time to complete them which is why they are dumber then they should be

The Superman vs Wonder Woman fight was the biggest tell. Superman should have died due to the kryptonite.

I don’t understand the “damage control” thing, when they already had all this content planned and voice lines done before the release of the game. I’m surprised you didn’t point out the “He will return” easter egg tho (unless this was recorded before it was found). But I feel like the Boss Fight for Batman was so easy on purpose, because he’s just a human. If he was a clone (which I beg he is) even with Brainiacs tech, I think no one can be Batman, except the real deal.

Love facing 13 brainiacs and NOT having Superman to face them with. Genuinely feel like the writers of this game need an intervention

The league were told not to murder the squad. Also...THE COMICS NEED TO BRING BACK MY BOI ALFRED!!! I MISS HIM 😭😭😭

Earth-2 Flash is Wally West. Different hair, suit and all

Interestingly, the brainiac we fight is vril dox and he is actually the brainiac of earth-2 in the comics

Imagine rocksteady decided to pull a massive troll, and they start cooking later on with this game

Ah, going back to the click-bait style format of the comics where they killed off characters for no reason other than to get people to buy the comics to see what happened, then bring them back immediately next issue with deus ex machina magic

My theory is that when Brainiac altered their DNA he made them extremely durable so much so that they can survive things like being shot in the head

I knew the deaths were fake outs. They kinda made it obvious at a point..

"Somehow the Justice League returned" - Wacksteady

7:20 idk if the poster just forgot or is purposely being disingenuous about the kryptonite thing, but it is covered again. We had a entire sub arc about it where we needed to capture a alive DNA edited JL member so Lex could see how to change & sync the kryptonite to work on Superman. So yeah this part of the video is kinda iffy.

Rocksteady should change the name of its game. The Suicide sqaud: We didn't kill the Justice league.

2:58 no one talking about the subtitles where he calls wonder woman wonder mommy 💀

I think the reason the clones of the League are stronger (like Superman being stronger to Kryptonite) is because Brainiac was using Diana’s DNA to sort of modify the clones, as she’s the only female and therefore the only one with DNA that is able to cycle the clones. She must have escaped at some point. However, you can see the ashes of her body float towards Brainiac’s ship. They are going to do something with that, for sure.

and when brainiac said "my justice league" he probably meant his justice league from a different earth

So as far as I know ppl find an audio queue about flash who said he got resurrected sadly this audio is getting strike from every post

Stages of grief: Denial.

Ofc they will, Rocksteady needs to do a live service justice leauge game next

It was all a dream

The damage is already done

Until they explain everything, this story and lore are a complete mess. And any "fix" will just be damage control. It's lousy and too large. Bigger is seldom better.

After the reactions for the game I can honestly believe the story will change and have the jl be trapped by a brainiac variant in another earth. They put the multiverse as a fail safe if things go bad among other things imo.

Wonder Woman lassoed Brainiac Flash and was able to get real Flash to talk for a few seconds which I think completely destroys the "clone" theory. Also, using Rocksteady's track record with the Arkham series is nonsense since it's an entirely new development team hand picked by Sweet Baby.

Clones would be a better option IMO. You can therefore assume from there they are imperfect and don't do things we'd expect them to do and well even clones aren't perfect. It is interesting they get summoned up to Brainiac's ship though, that is very....suspect

even if they aren't clones, I still like to imagine this as a sort of bad ending to the arkham timeline. like an alternate universe. after all, the multiverse is canon here, so this could just be a different arkham timeline with the same events, but not THE arkham timeline WE played.

Even if they resurrect the Justice League, the fact that most of their death scenes were very anti-climactic PLUS Batman no longer being the badass he once was, it's clear to us that Rocksteady ignored the lore the Arkham games was building up for and what we got instead is this awful live-service looter-shooter, in which the live-service in question is undoubtedly the worst part about this game.

I still can’t believe that there’s still people mad because Batman “died” when there’s a ton of evidence that he and the justice league are alive

Love the outro statements 😂👍

Making the entire plot of the game redundant

Not gonna lie, can we make it a regular thing to just wait on the live service content to explain stuff. Like they’re not gonna give us a full start to end story off rip and even if they did, it’s still LIVE SERVICE. There is going to be more content eventually

Excellent video bro! I hope alot of your theories pan out as i am running low on copium 😅. I also think lex2 will betray the SS

Rocksteady better damage control the Justice League back before the Rocksteady lay offs come. Suicide Squad is performing worst than Avengers and even Gotham Knights, David Zaslav and WB Discovery investors aren't going to be happy at Rocksteady's performance.

So you don't actually kill The Justice League? You just killed their clones? What the fuck is this game? LMAO.

It could be from a other multiverse but definitely not earth 2 since in earth 2 green lantern is hal jordan and the flash is wally west

Rocksteady should’ve just have brought the Batman who laughs since he was still infected with joker’s blood and then introduced the multiverse there if it’s even needed.

Even if batman comes back I think he could get talked into walking off a cliff even if he says it’s a bad idea

Isn't the Flash and Green Latern from Earth-2 shown to look like Wally West and Hal Jordan on that poster in Earth-2?

This still wont save the game

One thing I’ve noticed from These Theory videos it’s pretty apparent the negative reviews did not play this game. Before these theory videos I was coming to the same conclusion that it’s multiversal stuff and honestly was kinda hyped for it.

3:04 I noticed this when the lasso of truth removes the purple from flash eyes his eyes looks extremely different flash’s eyes are brown and when the lasso removes the corruption temporarily the outter eyes looks almost pale then the inner eye is brown

Yknow Gotham paladin, I find it funny.. In the Arkhamverse, Wally West or one of the speedsters residing there had a reference of their own in knight. Apparently, there was a flash for keystone like there was for Central City so maybe Barry wasnt the only speedster?

Even if it is revealed that they were clones, that would just create more problems with the story. For example: If the Justice League were clones, what was stopping Brainiac from making more clones? How is Brainiac able to create a Green Lantern ring?

I think the clone idea makes the most sense. The inconsistencies sorta get wrapped up perfectly and it explains how they went down so easily. Plus it is a sorta common trope to have the seemingly weak team win on a technicality. I just wonder how much damage (from a reputation perspective) can get undone since almost everyone was convinced that RockSteady actually had the SS actually killed the League.

There's a really really easy explanation for Batman's personality change here. He's under Braniac's control. That's it. When Braniac captures the Squad he tells them how he in HIS opinion can enhance Squad's potential and capabilities. Same happened to JL. Braniac enhanced the qualities he thought will be useful. That's why Bats is more blood thirsty and acts like a dictator. Under Braniac's control he relies more on the brute force than strategizing. Also the important aspect of why Batman's strategizing capabilities was nerfed is the fact that he doesn't have free will under Braniac's control which is why he isn't as creative and clever with his actions as usual

You can say the missing finger on flash coming back and the ring not flying away from dead lantern are excused by clone theory because it doesn’t make comic sense, but then again when Wonder Woman uses the lasso of truth on boomerang he lies somehow saying flash’s finger just fell off somehow. I just feel it’s proof of their lazy writing

There are 2 things that prove there not clones or doppolgangers. One the deadshot from the Arkham games has the same DNA as this dead shot in the game. The second on earth 2 Hal Jordan is the GL and Wally West is the Flash with orange hair. This rules out there DNA being different and they are not the Earth 2 Justice League.

So if the justice league is still alive and on braniacs ship , didn't the ship explode so wouldn't the justice league still be dead or recovered by Amanda waller just like in the leaked audio?

I think the most likely scenario is rock steadys original story was them killing the actual league but they knew there would likely be some backlash so they left a way out incase. As a result they are now gonna go with clones

About the flash "clone" turning good for a second. The lasso of true always forces out the full truth from anything in its grasp. Maybe the clone turning good was the lassos way of forcing out the full truth.

To be honest, I prefer they just don't come back. Sweet baby inc writers will ruin the arkhamverse even more. we already saw how little they give a shit about batman or literally any of the league members other then wonder woman.

12:49 that's exactly how I picture a lore accurate by the books Superman design.

well if they are clones then maybe as clones they can have a lot of defects, like being physically weaker and less durable than the real justice league. like a glass canon type thing where all their stats were put into the power slot making their powers seem as powerful as the real ones but are waaaay less durable and more unstable.

There's a couple of leaked audio lines that pretty much completely confirm the clone theory. I'll put them low in the comment to avoid spoilers. The two lines are from braniac (very clearly the real Jason Issacs saying them) and they say, "You may have the original, but I have plenty of the Flash's genetic material..." and, "of course I was not able to represent the entirety of kryptonian physiology, but I do think that unit was a good start."

On your note about GL there was a story line in DC where a Lantern ring from another universe came to the Prime Earth and did not seek out a new host and the fact that it was from another universe was used to explain it. For Superman being immune to Kryptonite, it has been confirmed in the comics that the older Superman gets the more immune he becomes to Kryptonite. In the comics the Superman from Earth 2 has been around since the late 30's and Kryyptonians age slower than humans making them look younger than they actually are. Also Batman's fighting style is different from Arkham Batman. If this is true then Wonder Woman would still have died in the game.

I love that they are clones theory! It makes sense and it rounds everything up well. Just one quick question though, when Diana puts the lasso of truth on the Flash she call him Barry and his eyes turn back to their original blue colour. Could this just be that flash got cloned and then enhanced or what? Great video!

i reckon they're physically clones but brainiac has made some kind of mental connection to the real ones, so that they have the same skills and knowledge, the reason for clones is he knows the league aren't immortal and they're far too valuable to risk losing so soon. perhaps the lasso of truth is able to reach all the way through the clone to the actual flash's mind for his real answer, plus maybe stuff like batman going out without any fight shows bruce is mentally resisting brainiac and knows its best not to get in the suicide squads way, though he'll still have plenty of verbal quarrel with harley

I mean for the inconsistency you could just say that the mind control fucked with them hard. Hell that was my way of coping with how they lost. If this was just like ab injustice situation and they just went rogue the squad would be done the moment they met Batman in the Batman experience

The rumor has been that Batman returns in Season 3. If that is the case then maybe they come back in the seasons in the order their evil versions died in the story: 1. Season 1 - Flash Returns 2. Season 2 - Green Lantern Returns 3. Season 3 - Batman Returns 4. Season 4 - Superman Returns

I don't think you can count on rocksteady having an "attention to detail" anymore, it's obviously a completely different team now. Flash having his finger back is probably just a mistake they'll retcon to mean something later. They probably just didn't want to rework a new model with no finger These are the same devs that used the post-Brainiac Wonder Woman model with the bandage on her arm in the Hall of Justice holograms

Those Rocksteady bastards had better bring the Justice league back to life those JLA members we fight had better be clones and the real ones better show up alive and as we know them first off killing Arkham Batman like this ruins everything I don’t want his story to end like that he deserves better dammit they all do bring the bring the real justice league back

If this is true, why doesnt arkham batman atleast use 20% of his efficiency? For example:he can hack the ss comms and locate where they are, he can also use the disruptor to trigger the bombs in their necks, he can also jump them with green lantern or superman, he can also track wonder woman from the clock tower due to supermans enhanced hearing, he can also send evil flash to one shot the suicide squad while fighting normal brainiac thugs, batman’s efficiency is terrible even though he’s been stalking them the entire game💀

3:18 I think he cloned the flash then turned him evil after because you can’t really breed evil into a clone before you create them

I think the justice league aren't dead but have been captured by Brainiac and he is using there DNA to make the clones

The finger you cut off the flash is his pinky and his pinky on his right hand is not there 😭

Just to throw a wrench into the theory that these may be the earth 2 justice league. In a sign you can find in earth 2. It shows their justice league line up is different. That got Hal as GL and they have Wally as flash. So I think these are clones not other world versions

just bought the deluxe edition, why can everyone but Boomerang use the blackmask minigun and pistol?? switching my character just so im not stuck with the sniper as its the only one i can give him

Yeah I don’t understand how so many people got caught up on this. You only need a casual knowledge of the rule’s behind each of the hero’s to be able to tell it’s probably not the real them

Lex luthor name drops lady boomerang as well, a character from Earth 3 in the comics, so... It is possible we are currently getting story information on which earth's are which from an unreliable narrator due to relative perspective. My theory is that The suicide squad KTJL takes place on Earth 2, and lex luthor is from Earth 3. This explains why King Shark is alive (and a different character) after "Assault on Arkham(2014)," and also how an earth 1 Deadshot's is in Earth 2 Deadshot's place (as a part of a potential elaboration as to how, and from where)

One thing that confuses me is that if they were clones how tf did they replicate a Green Lantern ring?

Flash's finger re-appearing, and Superman's stab wound being nowhere to be scene could be a hint that Brainiac is more than capable of healing them, which would also be why he sucked Flash back into the ship. To heal him. which means Batman let them win because he knew he would be back.

What’s the ominous music in the background? I like it

King Shark: I don't believe it Captain Boomerang: It's the Justice League Harley Quinn: They're alicd? Deadshot: You mean I never killed the Bat?

If the alternate JL's theory ends up being the right one they have an opportunity to do something REALLY cool. It'd be cool to see The Crime Syndicate or even some Dark Knights Metal representation.

They cant be earth-2 justice league bc in a mission where you are in earth 2 you can see posters of justice day and there you can see wonder woman has silver red armour, green lantern is hal jordan there and flash in earth 2 isnt barry allen but wally west. In a leaked audio from anptter season of the game you can hear flash talking to a woman i dont know right now who it was but i guess amanda waller and they are talking about the Justice League getting Ressurected in Brainiacs ship

What if the Superman of this universr ends up being Bizarro, i mean he got the funky lines on his face, weirdly immune to Superman's normal weaknesses, etc.

Really liked the video, but I just wanted to point this out: the Kryptonite thing was mentioned again. It's the whole reason why we go get Batman, so Luthor can make a new kind of Kryptonite to affect this genetically modified version Superman.

That Flash can’t be from Earth 2 because of that Justice League poster on Earth 2 that shows their Flash had this like flowing red hair instead of a all around helmet

"How to get a girlfriend" lmfaoooo I love youre videos man

When you go to earth 2 you can see on the justice day posters that flash is Wally and GL is Hal

I genuinely hope this isn't true. That they're not clones, or just from another universe. It defeats the purpose of the title of the game and the way they hyped it all up. If they're not actually dead, or even "Our" versions of the characters then they misled the hell out of us and tried to manipulate us into caring about the finale to these characters only to wave it away and give us a REAL Arkhamverse Justice League. This could have just been a Justice League game from the get-go then, instead of essentially what exists to set up a "Real" Justice League game.

I honestly think it'd be cooler to keep them dead and just "end" the Arkham verse. Rather than return to a status quo when you can't have Kevin Conroy record new lines. That being said if this game survives long enough I could see year 2 or 3 being "Save the justice League" as it's subtitle.

4:07 I don’t know if you know this but this is wrong I and others have found out that earth 2 flash is Wally west I don’t remember where but if you look it up you will find it in earth 2 there is Wally west and Hal Jordan as the GN

Think your right about the clones I also noticed superman did not speak much And I know All the purple( like with the JL eyes and his heat vision) was credited to brainiac Isn't bizarro kind of purple? I also was rewarded the bizaro shotgun for beating "superman" i think the clone thing works
