Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes shill for Injustice: Gods Among Us in new commercial

Posted on April 9, 2013 by John Scalzo

I’ve been a Kevin Smith fan for a long time. Probably too long when you look at his recent output. But I still think the man has his moments and this commercial for Injustice: Gods Among Us is one of them.

The commercial depicts the decades-long debate between Smith and his hetero life mate, Jason Mewes, over which DC Comics heroes would win in a fight… Batman or Superman? The Flash or Green Lantern? Wonder Woman or Aquaman? Helpfully, Mewes points out that now they can know for sure with Injustice: Gods Among Us. Snootchie bootchies!

Injustice: Gods Among Us will be released for the PS3, Wii U, and Xbox 360 next Tuesday, April 16.
