[@MakoSucks]

Both lines are by Ed Boon!

[@Nileking300]

😂😂

[@spider-pal7872]

Also jax: you think you bad?

[@TheSuperPlayer707]

​​@@MakoSucks both also both born during mocap. In the first one, Ed asked Pesina to put emphasis on the key poses and not so much in the movement, to get the thing like "Wah! Get over here!". And then the catchphrase born. Then in the moment when they have to mocap the second game, while capturing Jax moves Tobias said it would be cool to have a multiple hit attack, and then Boon said it could be like taking the opponent with one hand, like "gotcha", and then start to beat out the s**t of the other guy with the other hand. And thy, another catchphrase casually born.

@@shadowdramon01 Funny thing is is that Captain Marvel belonged to Marvel before I'm pretty sure with Ms. Marvel, the blonde woman in the black suit, not the new woman Captain Marvel. Then they sold him off to DC but they kept the same uniform, but called him Shazam.

[@WannabeWRX]

@@raginglevi This is wrong. Captain Marvel was a Fawcett character back in the 50s. SHAZAM was just the magic power word and the acronym for how Billy and Mary Batson were powered by the various gods. They were sued by DC because the character was similar to Superman. During the legal fight, DC ends up buying Fawcett, making Captain Marvel and Mary Marvel part of the DC family. The reason why DC titles their Captain Marvel as SHAZAM now has to do with how DC Comics mishandled the IP for the comic title. Marvel created a "Captain Marvel" named Mar-Vell at a time when DC did not publishing Captain Marvel (SHAZAM) comics. In the comics world, one has to keep publishing to maintain IP or lose it after a certain period of time (this is also the reason why you keep seeing reboots and reimaginings). Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers - who is a riff on Linda Danvers...the 60s Supergirl) became "Captain Marvel" to keep the title IP in Marvel's hands. And a new character was created to take over the Ms. Marvel moniker - again to keep the IP.
