Actually, you know something that I'm surprised I've seen no speculation about? We've seen what looks like a Wraith / Undead / Brotherhood of Shadow costume for Kitana... but what about Kung Lao? Anyone else excited about the possibility of an Evil Kung Lao skin?

On that note, I'll digress about a few things. Some time back, I was getting a bit concerned that there were too many "hero" characters being revealed. I mean, if Jax really is in the game, that brings the total of "Special Forces" aligned characters to seven (sounding Cassie's team of four plus the three veterens of Jax, Johnny, and Sonya). Still, taking into account that several of these characters are likely to have "evil" skins, and suddenly the "too many good guys" notion seems to melt away.

I'm also starting to wonder if this "Wraith Kung Lao" notion I'm musing about gives credence to my notion that all characters will have at least one costume aligned with a specific faction. In the "Wraith" case, it's the Brotherhood of Shadow, and I once again iterate that a lot of recently revealed characters seem to be Special Forces aligned. It would be interesting to see what some "Black Dragon" or "Lin Kuei" costumes would be for characters other than Kano and Sub Zero respectively.
