No I'm not kidding. This is Mr... ahem Mrs Freeze who will be the new character for WB's live service masterpiece that has just lost them 200 million dollars.
How the F#@K do these people get employed with game companies?
Until I see a promotion from WB I won't believe this is legit.
Taking a step back from any woke/antiwoke culture the design is just hideous and I refuse to believe it was greenlit.
The character and costume design in suicide squad is at least okay-ish to good, this just feels like it's not even from the same plane of existence.
All the more reason to believe that it is real.
Scraping the barrel is literally the first thing in the rulebook for $70 live service games, this just fits right in with their MO.
Anyway some context behind this picture: this has been floating around the Susquad subreddit for a number of weeks and it has always been said to have come from official sources. Now weeks later this picture is still being talked about so I'm very confident it's not just some rumor, trick or hoax.
I will be very, very surprised if this doesn't end up in the actual game, but it's never bad to be skeptical.

Yes but there's a shitload of character concepts and production content that never actually make it into final release for most games. For all anyone knows this is some variant costume an intern generated that will never see the light of day.
I'll happily eat a cheeseburger if they release this and I'm wrong but until such a time it's just too awful and has broken past Poe's Law for me.
I don't like it. Has nothing to do with "woke" stuff either; the design is just fugly, and that color palette is just weird.
Honestly though, on the topic of "woke agendas", are they trying to create more bigots? Because this is how you create bigots: by alienating moderates with shit like this pushing people so far with stuff that alienates them until you force them to pick a side and guess what? They ain't picking your side when you push shit like this on them.
"Hey, check out this female version of this male character!" Meh... "Hey, we made this white character brown!" Groan... "Hey, these two characters are now women and lesbians!" C'mon... "Hey, we got a black samurai!" OH COME ON! THAT"S IT! I'M JOINING THE ALT-RIGHT!
I meant to reply in the other thread regarding this but since we're here, I'll just say about the whole Nora thing.
Back in the old comic book days, the comics ironically have never treated Batman TAS backstory very well. It got introduced with Nora getting crap during Mr. Freeze's first fight with Batman, then he tried reviving her in a Lazarus Pit and she became an insane fire spirit. Rebirth wiped out Nora being his wife and made her a random chick Freeze obsessed over, and I think now she's become the same kind of sub-zero-mutated person as him. But the only good ending Mr. Freeze and Nora ever got was in Arkham Knight and Rocksteady was different back then, then it is now!
But the funny thing is, Batman & Robin, of all things treated that aspect of the characters with respect and that's wild giving the fact that film is a parody itself. That being all said, if this is really true, it shows this is a different Rocksteady team and the old team wouldn't go this far to do Nora or Freeze this dirty.

Meh...
"Hey, we made this white character brown!"
Groan...
"Hey, these two characters are now women and lesbians!"
What annoys me more is that there are people who defend the executives that make this kind of decisions with a "They have a multimillion company and you not".
Looks like your stereotypical butch lesbian more than a man... muchless the Iconic Mr.Freeze from the comics. :0 But oh well, life goes on.
Edit: Mind you, comics are known for changing the looks of their characters, and I personally enjoy it when a known character is changed artistically. Not a fan of this look for Mr.Freeze, but as stated above, oh well.
