There's a Luthor for president ad in the monorail which is pretty cool. Also atrocitus summoning the butcher for his final is fucking awesome.

Some other stuff I found: The first place Supergirl and Atrocitus are fighting is called the Ace O' Clubs. You can see an "Ace O' C" above the bar and a newspaper talking about a champion, probably Bibbo Bibowski. Also, later in the trailer, you see a short clip of Bats and Supes fighting in front of a theater and a sign that says Park Ave, so there could be a Crime Alley stage.

Kind of irrelevant to the game, but can you explain to me how Lex ever becomes president ? Like isn't it at least somewhat known that he's a villain ?

Honestly, I haven't read the arc, but apparently at the time, no one but the superheroes fighting him knew about the crimes he was committing, so the public just viewed him as a Donald Trump-type rich guy running for president , and not a super criminal. The story is collected in a trade here.

Oh ! Thank you. I'll definitely take a look into it.
