After yesterday's premature leak, Midway has officially released the <a href="http://www.trmk.org/games/mortal_kombat_vs_dc_universe/">Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe</a> video featuring comic book artist Alex Ross. In the video Alex is shown in time lapse video creating the <a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=pd2w*IOD4qM&offerid=121938.125401&type=2&subid=3">Kollector's Edition cover</a>. He narrates the whole thing and gives insight into who he is and how he is giving the artwork for the <b>Mortal Kombat</b> characters his own personal touch.

We also have the video in 720p Quicktime and Windows Media video, but I'm not at home so the upload is taking a little while. They will be posted once available.
 
Hey Pat, there was another release of the KE boxart with the T-rating on it. It should be on the Midway forums.
 
Yes I see that, I have the links from Midway. I didn't notice that because the images were not loading.
 
The one for the PS3 is.... Poorly put together... Also, TBH, I like the original cover more better.
 
Ha, I didn't notice WW was blurred. That's likely because the picture in question is not free to the public as the MKvDC renders are. Also, I see what you're saying Jinko about the PS3 cover. The bar on the left cuts off part of the art.
 
Like, I don't see why they can't move the art to the right more. The box for the PS3 isn't the same size as the XBox's.

With a few edits, THIS is how it should have turned out.

Hopefully a Midway representative noticed the same error...of course after that fiasco with the Okami Wii boxart I can't trust ANY company to check boxart anymore.
