Introducing Painwheel!

As I fighting game fan, I have big hopes for Skullgirls. With art work from Alex Ahad (Scott Pilgrim and Lava Punch), a soundtrack composed by Michiru Yamane (Castlevania), and GroundStorm’s online system (GGPO) all make this a title to watch out for. Today Reverge Labs sent over some art work depicting the newest addition to the Skullgirls roster. Everyone, say hi to Painwheel!

Painwheel, once named Carol, was kidnapped by Valentine and delivered to the Anti-Skullgirls Labs’ Lab Zero. Apparently she was infused with experimental Skullgirls blood, turning her into what she is today. Her attacks involve using spikes (think Marrow from MVC2) and that giant wheel. I haven’t seen her in action yet. However, she does look like a worthy character to use. If you’re going to the New York Comic Con, be sure to check her out!
