Superman is imprisoned, Bruce Wayne builds a new team, and we learn a lot more about the state of the world in NetherRealm and Warner Bros; Interactive's "Injustice 2" thanks to the anticipated video game sequel's latest trailer.

While Batman is putting together what seems to be a new Justice League, consisting of Green Lantern (who namedrop the Guardians), Green Arrow, Black Canary and Harley Quinn, Cyborg celebrates the reuniting of Superman's Regime, answering once and for all which side of the fight Vic Stone is choosing.

Of course, as cool as it is to see Robin take down Batman, or Flash square off against Reverse Flash, it's once again the Man of Steel's new attitude and new twist to his power set that's of the most interest. Not only do we hear a voiceover from Superman as he wonders when Batman will realize that you sometimes have to kill people in order to save others, we see that kryptonite apparently no longer has an ill effect on his Kryptonian physiology.

In addition to the second story trailer, NetherRealm has debuted a second piece of key art for the game. Last time, we saw Superman taking on a handful of heroes, and this time it's Batman's turn as the Dark Knight does battle with Cyborg, Robin and a third, bearded enemy.
