Revenge Labs prepares for trouble and makes it Double, with final Skullgirls character
Skullgirls is easily one of the year's most highly anticipated fighting games and considering it's set to launch on PSN and XBLA by the end of the quarter, there's been a fair bit of intrigue going into the eighth and final character reveal for the game's "initial" roster. Revenge Labs showed off the femme fatale on Game Trailers TV last Thursday night and let's just say that while she may seem innocent enough with her impression, this is one Skull girl you won't want to mess with.
Double appears to be your average nun but that appearance is only skin deep. In reality, she is a hideous monstrosity that can shape shift into anything or anyone it pleases.
Don't believe me? Check out these screens and see for yourself:
Most of Double's attacks will consists of transformations of the other seven main characters. However, before you begin to think she's some kind of Shang Tsung copycat, there's more to her than meets the eye. Some of her copy attacks are going to be "remixes" of the other character attacks, while others are going to be attacks that didn't make the cut on the original character. So, while she is mimicking the other characters with her attacks, Double is a completely unique character in her own right and probably one of the more interesting characters on the roster ... which says a lot.
Now that all eight characters have been revealed and after watching several trailers and gameplay videos, I only have three more questions. "When? How much? And give it to me!"

Like I said on the Gamefaqs forum, Double creeps me right the heck out. Man I hope the rumored March release date turns out to be true. I really want to get my hands on this.

Wow. First there was giant-arm-hat girl, then undead cat-girl-burgler, then Bosco-esque violent kid, eldrich-hair lady, Deadly Viper Association nurse, Nazi-princess-Wong-Fei Hung lady, and finally twisted-tortured-rabid-little girl with bionic instruments of death... And now, for the kicker, we get THING-NUN!!! This game deserves my money for character design alone, much less for the fact that it looks like a great game to boot! TAKE MY MONEY NAO!!!!11

BB Hood vs Peacock....for example
Falcovsleon20
I've actually requested that one at least once. I'm also behind Filia vs Milia Rage (Hair fight!) and X-23 vs Painwheel (Battle of the female bio-engineered experimental killing machines)

Is she a pregnant transforming nun?
"Femme fatale" is two words.
