Yeah StarLord is just a regular dude. One of the coolest thing about him is his mask. Why take that away? And this was before the movie came out so he doesn't even look like Chris Pratt.

That's one of the things I'm thankful for about the Guardians movie, it forced Bendis to give Star-Lord his mask back. Sure, we lost the helmet, but at least the iconic part of the mask is back.

Either way, Bendis is leaving the Guardians book soon, so whatever.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Will we even get any news in Jan?

The thing is I'm not even sure if it was Bendis or the artist

The shitty costume was a mix of both, I believe. The writing was all Bendis, though.

Guess I wasn't the only one.

saw ur post before the edit and thought UMVC2 was a thing...

in a world with USF2, anything could happen I suppose

 

[Rhaknar]

also that was a lot of typos in my post, damn I need to go to a ophthalmologist, no joke :/

yeah sorry about that

I'd buy it.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Clayface would be cool.

Clayface would be cool.

The Batman villain?

Clayface would be cool.

Isn't Clayface from DC?

Did you mean Sandman by chance?

EDIT: Or meant to post in the Injustice 2 thread?

Ah shit, I thought this was it.

 

[christiankid7]

is this a new comic tie-in made especially for UMVC3 PS4 or is it the one from MVC3? Because I'd love to see another one made.

Wait

That's definitely new art. I wonder if its a reprint of the MVC3 story with new art or a new story....

Back to MVCI I guess this would mean we're most likely getting an MVCI comic tie-in? I wonder if rights issues (Moto Kikaku for instance might object to Strider being used by Marvel) would keep Marvel from making an actual comic series for MVC:I?

EDIT: And hey, look who's missing.....

Ryu vs Iron Man? Sound familiar? (I guess it was more Ryu vs Cap Marvel but still where's Wolverine?)

 

[J-Tier]

I'm bored. Here's a lost of MCU characters and why I'm excited at the prospect of a roster being primarily made up of these characters.

Abomination, Absorbing Man, Angar the Screamer, Ant-Man, Arnim Zola, Asgard Ian (other), Baron Mordo, Baron von Strucker, Baron Zemo, Batroc the Leaper, Black Panther, Black Widow, Blackout, Blizzard, Captain America, Captain Marvel, Cloak & Dagger*, Colleen Wing*, Cosmo, Cottonmouth, Crossbones, Daredevil, Deathlok, Diamondback, Dormammu, Dr. Strange, Drax the Destroyer, Dum Dum Dugan, Elektra, Falcon, Gamora, Ghost Rider, Groot, Hawkeye, Hela*, Hellcat, Hellfire, Hive, Howard the Duck, Hulk, Inhumans*, Iron Fist, Iron Man, Iron Monger, Jessica Jones, Justin Hammer, Kaecilius, Killmonger*, Kilgrave, Kingpin, Klaw, Kurse, Lash, Laufey King of Ice Giants, Loki, Lorelei, Luke Cage, Malekith, Man-Ape*, Mandarin, Mantis, Maria Hill, Misty Knight, Mockingbird, Nebula, Nick Fury, Owl, Peggy Carter, Phil Coulson, Punisher, Quake, Quicksilver**, Raina**, Red Skull, Rocket Raccoon, Ronan the Accuser, Scarlet Witch**, Sharon Carter, Sif, Spider-Man, Star-Lord, Stick, Thanos, Thor, Ultron, Valkyrie*, Vision, Vulture, War Machine, Warriors Three, Whiplash, Winter Soldier, Yellowjacket, Yo-Yo.

*Upcoming Characters/Easter egg
**Neoxon Trigger

Relatively thorough list, I may be missing a few but I got lazy.

80% of that list includes my most wanted characters. With the Marvel side focused on the MCU, I'm gonna be one happy guy. It's also why I previously mentione that I'm super excited about the Capcom side--I feel like the Marvel side is mostly a lock for me, leaving room for 3 or 4 surprises.

 

[Weiss]

Asura's Wrath is not super great but Asura is so incomparably cool that I don't care, so now I'll try to brainstorm stuff for him.

A projectile move that can change between rapid fire blasts and larger, slower fireballs.

Aerial divekick.

Super Armored dash attack.

Large radius spin attack.

Button mashing rapid punches.

A counter move based on the cinematic button prompts.

Level 1 Hyper: Unlimited Mode with Super Armor and increased damage.

Level 1 Hyper Lock-On Fire Blast (like Akuma's LM Gohadouken Hyper).

Level 3 Hyper: Transform into Vajra Asura

Alt costume: Past Asura/Augus

When was Angar the Screamer in anything?
Missing from memory: Surtur (seemingly confirmed for thor 3 from Hall H Thor 3 footage), Executioner (Confirmed for Thor 3), Whitney Frost/Madame Masque, Coldblood

Angar was in Agents of Shield.

 

[christiankid7]

Thanks. Didn't remember him being there.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Are we quite sure the art concept is completely brand new?

 

[Neoxon]

Are we quite sure the art concept is completely brand new?

I don't remember that piece of art from anywhere, but it could be old art that Marvel & Capcom sat on until now.

 

[PSqueak]

Are we quite sure the art concept is completely brand new?

Let me check on the digital UMVC3 when i get back home (it comes with a digital artbook), but i certainly don't remember this piece being in it.

 

[Seyavesh]

it looks like joe mad. art so probably check that

no x-men is mega weird tho

 

[Neoxon]

Storm is in the back.

 

[Seyavesh]

Storm is in the back.

derp yeah she is

when's shinkiro mvc4 art though

 

[sixteen-bit]

derp yeah she is

when's shinkiro mvc4 art though

It's super weird how this game doesn't have any promotional art at all.

I wonder if we'll see any Shinkiro.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Are we quite sure the art concept is completely brand new?

Says 2017. (and the signature has 2016)

 

[Jawmuncher]

Looking at that art, i hope japan is doing the cover again

 

[Neoxon]

Says 2017. (and the signature has 2016)

To be fair, so does the big Shinkiro art, which we know was made around the time of UMvC3's Vita release.

 

[J-Tier]

As long as we get a good artist, I'm good. However, most Western artists will probably result in janky looking Capcom characters.

Capcom fully owns Strider, they said they only need to inform Moto Kikaku ahead of time when Strider is going to be used (and also give full recognition and credit).

It sounds like the arrangement DC has with Siegel and Shuster and their estates for example when it comes to Superman.

As long as we get a good artist, I'm good. However, most Western artists will probably result in janky looking Capcom characters.

A lot of "Western artists" nowadays are just Japanese. In fact Marvel uses a lot of Japanese artists now and have been for a long time like Gurihiru.

 

[Choppasmith]

Yeah. heard the news about the new comic. That's a real surprise. I wonder if it's being made to tease MvC Infinite and tie UMvC3 to it somehow.

 

[Skab]

Concept art? What concept art?

What have I missed?

 

[J-Tier]

I think he means the cover art for the comic that's bundled with the PS4 UMvC3 release.

I had no idea, that's neat. I don't really follow comic artists, just writers.

[TRUE ORDER]

Not liking this new art at all, but that's just me, the Shinkiro one is dope though it's not new. Also, where's is Wolverine? At least Storm is there...

No info, no art no nothing of MvCI? I'm gonna die lol

 

[Professor Beef]

No info, no art no nothing of MvCI? I'm gonna die lol

Patience is a virtue

 

[Seven Force]

here

It's new. Look at the artist's signature: It's dated 2016.

 

[TRUE ORDER]

Patience is a virtue

Yeah I know, but it's been a while since it was revealedl and we don't know much about the game.

 

[Motion Picture Soundtrack]

Were any of the mvc3/umvc3 characters announced at a PAX?

 

[enzo_gt]

Were any of the mvc3/umvc3 characters announced at a PAX?

Some UMvC3 characters got trailers around that time IIRC, but the game pretty much had all of it's new characters leaked at that point. PAX South is a newer thing and I wouldn't expect much there either because it's kind of an obscure event (and I don't even think Capcom is there).

Increasingly seeming like we'll have to wait until GDC.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Looks like I need to get a physical copy.
This box art is so good.

Yep I do too. Both Xbone and PS4 for me!

 

[Mr. Smiley]

They chose the best artwork. Good show Capcom.

 

[Seven Force]

Great artwork. Way better than vanilla MvC3's hilarity.

I've always been fond of the JP covers for both vanilla and UMvC3, too.

Its so busy though, my eyes.

Someone in the GS preorder thread hit up a Marvel rep on twitter, who confirmed an actual disc release.
