I think it's always fun to see some of the stuff the Mortal Kombat team was inspired by when they created the franchise, and these are some of the things they've shared over the years. Thanks to Master Daniel Pesina for sharing his story at Kombat-Kon, John Tobias for sharing his over Twitter, and Jeff Rovin (the "Clinton fixer") for mentioning his right up front in the official MK novel!
