Renee Montoya (Injustice Gods Among Us Year 2)

Injustice Gods Among Us Year 2 #6

Renee Montoya was with Commissioner Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock when the Regime Soldiers marched into Gotham. She asks Gordon if they are really just going to stand by and let the soldiers take over, but is told "not now." However she persists, asking him if he has a plan.

In #11, Montoya and Gordon go to visit Bullock in the hospital after he was beaten by a soldier. Motoya is shocked when Gordon tells Bullock to get up and tries to argue that he won't be able to walk, but Bullock demonstrates he can. The three leave the hospital, while Gordon tells them they are going to police the city.

In #12, Montoya stands along side Gordon, Bullock and the Birds of Prey, listening to him as he tries to rally the former policemen to join the Insurgency. Montoya is quick to tell a female cop to loose her attitude after she gets angry at the suggestion to leave the force. She watches in silence as Bullock shoots Gordon in the head, demonstrating the power of the pill.

In #14, Montoya and Bullock are part of the Birds of Prey's plan to capture two Regime Soldiers. They start running when they hear a scream in the distance and Canary tells them both not to show any signs that would reveal they have increased strength until their communications had been taken out, so that Superman would not figure out the Insurgency had stolen his tech.

A regime soldier has a teenage boy hanging upside down and has broken his leg. Montoya shoots his helmet and watches the bullet bounce off, telling him to let go. He reminds her that bullets can't hurt him, dropping the teenager, but she just shoots out his helmet's eye lens. She smiles saying "Bullets may not hurt you, but shooting you in the face still feels pretty damn good." She has to hold Bullock back when one of the soldiers removes their helmet to reveal he was the one that put Bullock in the hospital.

Montoya joins Bullock after he smashes the two soldiers through a wall into an abandoned warehouse. She challenges them to fight  stating they could have a fair fight, but that it was "long past fair." She fights with Batwoman, and Bullock to take out one of the soldiers. She comments "Worst... supersoldiers... ever" as she watches the other soldier flee. After Gordon has subdued the soldier he orders her, Black Canry and Bullock to arrest him.

In #16 Montoya is holding hands with Batwoman as they listen to Batman's pre-war speech telling everyone to say good-bye to husbands, wives, children and family. Batwoman begins to speak, but Renee interrupts, telling her she'll see her out in the field.

In #17 Montoya, stands with Bullock and other members of the G.C.P.D, watching the sky turn green with Mogo's power blast.

In #18 Montoya is among the Resistance members as they prepare for Harley Quinn's distraction. After Gordon gives the signal she charges along with the Insurgency, kicking a soldier in the face and stormed the Hall of Justice.

Montoya witnesses the conversation Luthor has with Gordon, however does not hear it.

In #22 Montoya helps Bullock carry Cyborg out of the Hall of Justice ruins.

Renee Motoya first appears in Injustice Gods Among Us Year 2 #6. In issue #16  it is revealed that she is married to Kate Kane, aka Batwoman.
