Clash Quotes:

Killer Frost:

(If Killer Frost starts the clash)

Killer Frost: “Lets see who the coldest person is, shall we.”
Cole MacGrath “I may have cold powers, but I'm not a cold blooded killer like you.”

(If Cole MacGrath starts the clash)

Cole MacGrath: “Wonder if you melt?”
Killer Frost: “Test you luck at your own peril.”

Scorpion:

(If Scorpion starts the clash)

Scorpion: “My hellfire burns hotter than yours.”
Cole MacGrath: “Lets test that.”

(If Cole MacGrath starts the clash)

Cole MacGrath: “I'm gonna freeze you solid.”
Scorpion: “Your freezing technique is weaker than Sub-Zero's.”

Shazam:

(If Shazam starts the clash)

Shazam: “The lighting you produce is pathetic.”
Cole MacGrath: “I haven't even warmed up yet.”

(If Cole MacGrath starts the clash)

Cole MacGrath: “You need to be at home, little boy.”
Shazam: “How dare you speak to the mightiest mortal alive like that.”

Batgirl:

(If Batgirl starts the clash)

Batgirl: “You shouldn't blame yourself for what happened to your world.”
Cole MacGrath: “If I don't, who will?”

(If Cole MacGrath starts the clash)

Cole MacGrath: “You remind me of someone I once loved.”
Batgirl: “So you like a strong woman who fights for good.”

Intro: Cole glides in with his static thrusters and lands on the ground. He cracks his knuckles, says “Lets do this,” and gets into his battle stance.

Outro: Cole simply grins at his downed opponent and leaves the stage. He is then seen on a tall building, looking down at the street below. He hears a woman scream and Cole Thunder Drops off screen to investigate.

Arcade Ending:

Cole MacGrath had defeated High Councilor Superman. Hailed as a hero, Cole found acceptance in this new world. He traveled around the country and found himself in Dakota, the hometown of the hero Static. Since he was killed by the Regime for refusing to undergo reeducation, the town was left defenseless. Cole decided to take Static's place as protector of Dakota and honor his memory.
Cole's Moveset for Injustice. Of course he would be a PS3 exclusive character.

I decided to use Cole as a good guy, I pretty sure hero playthroughs are cannon.

Killer Frost, Scorpion and Shazam were chosen as clashes due to the fact they represent Cole's three power traits of Electricity, Fire and Ice. Also some of his fire and ice powers are taken from enemies in Infamous 2.

I decided to have Batgirl as a clash since he had a girlfriend named Trish in the first one. She tries to help people out, just like Batgirl. the clash were she tells him not to blame himself and he tells her that if doesn't who will is something i came up with. See, despite not causing the Blast that gave him his powers and other things he couldn't help with, he would still feel some guilt for it.

Jason Cottle voiced Cole in Infamous. I prefer his over Eric Ladin.

Next Up: The Terminator

Out of the Injustice Guest Characters I favorited, this one is my favorite. Cole MacGrath would be one heck of a wildcard in the Injustice world, refusing to take sides and with such a wide array of powers. Taking down Superman would definitely put him in this world's good books. I like the idea of honored Static's memory. Bang Babies, look out!
