They added this image for Generations Banner Hulk & Totally Awesome Hulk #1. No idea why it is such higher resolution than the other images. It's nice to finally see some art for this game and not just in-game renders.

Reading that overall list....I really need to read Spider-Verse. Tons of characters I have never heard of that were apparently introduced in Spider-Verse. I've got a free Marvel Unlimited subscription right now so I'll check it out after I finish this FF run.

Wrong thread.
prepare for disappointment is all i have to say. there's so many fun and cool spideys and they are all wasted, all of them
the one spidey i sometimes think about checking out before forgetting the original manga b/c this one article i read made it sound really bizarre, like a product of that weird counter-culture 70s/80s mangas that go nagai would produce

if you're checking out spidey stuff imo check out the scarlet spider run featuring kaine. that series was waaaay better than it had any right to be given kaine's origins

On the site, the Dormammu variant has been replaced on my end with a Previewsworld logo....odd
Yeah because it wasn't supposed to go up yet.. LMAO!
Too late, the cover is already all over Twitter.
I don know if a venue like the MTL comic con is a good barometer, but MVCi had 1 station, and it was not very busy, usually two or 4 people in the line. It was on par with Injustice 2, but that had 2 stations.
Cod WW2 was the big thing, with at least four stations and a lineup.

A lot of people might've assumed it was just the Story Demo.

Previewsworld: Oops
Marvel should thank them though, it brought some excitement and speculation to the roster.

Yeah, so far I have all of the covers on my PC.

Nah, everyone was playing versus. There wasn't enough of a crowd for passers-by not to notice.

Yeah, they usually do both way. They usually sell characters individually and characters pass separately depend on people's preferences. Some people just prefer Character Pass so they could save some money since they could get the premium characters that came with DLC characters.

I was originally going to get the premium edition for 90$ at Gamestop, but Amazon had the regular version at 25% off so I switched and im trying to decide on if I should get the character pass or just wait and see. Right now all I want out of the listed characters that are probably DLC is Black Panther, but im sure there will be more.
Is Black Panther rumored to be available on release or a few weeks/months after release?
Bronetta
Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
I'm guessing Sigma and Black Panther will get released first since they were announced first.
none of them are on release, all we know is that all 6 are scheduled to come out this year
there's no reason to get the premium edition now unless you absolutely know you want all the dlc characters.
IntelliHeath

Some of us speculated that Black Panther and Sigma are more likely to be first two characters coming out in October. Second set of characters would be out in November, and last set of characters would be out in December.
IF you don't really care about those four premium costumes that you are getting from Deluxe Preorder, then just go with regular edition since you could pay for season pass for 30 dollars later on. You would able to save some money that way.

The Secret War variants artist is apparently a Capcom artist, Mizuno. Is this the only one so far?

Yeah, they're pretty ridiculous with the Chun alts in SFV.
Chun alts are entirely funding Season 3. SFV is adopting the DoA business model.

They forgot to finish funding season 2.

Same here. I rarely bought costumes for SFV but I know I'm a sucker for Marvel costumes tho. I really hope they would have good choices for alternative costumes. Also I'm open to some alternate costumes making it's returns here like Spencer's, Mike Haggar's, Captain America's, etc.
Hawkeye
Captain Marvel
Captain America
Dr. Strange
i mean you would think since marvel characters have a backlog of costumes. I'm hoping they just drop new costumes every week this is a game where the DLC cosmetically is going to be worth it.

Spider-man and Iron Man could easily become the new SFV Chun li with the amount of costumes they could put into the game 
And yes, please bring back classic hawkeye and Ronin

ill take it! lol I'm hoping they do clones i think they can pull it off and give characters some similar but new effects or even different lengths of attacks.
I guess the budget that was for random renders for (U)MvC3 went towards all the variants for MvCI.

Got the urge to start reading through Infinity Gauntlet a after not reading it for a few yrs. I forgot how amazing this story is. Seeing Thanos and Death already has me thinking about their potential story interactions.
If they could capture even the vaguest essence of Starlin's Thanos in this game's portrayal, that would be amazing. I'm not holding out for anything more than a generic saturday morning cartoon villain though.
Except it's not art for this game. It's a cover for a tie-in comic. The game still has no art assets.
It's bonkers.

If we see 4 new characters that we haven't seen leaked by any other source (or 3 since Ant-Man is in a gray area), is it safe to assume he or she is DLC?
Edit: I meant in the cover variants.

See...where? Like if they show them? Then no.
Say what you will about their marketing, both the announced dlc characters were very clearly stated as such and in fact we havent seen anything from them except the model in the dlc announcement part of the trailers.
Its not like we saw Panther randomly in a trailer and then they went "nope sorry he's dlc lol"

I mean in the cover variants.
I'd have liked it more if the base roster was replaced by modern Marvel's variants of the main cast (IronHeart rather than classic Tony, Cho Hulk rather than Banner Hulk, Miles rather than Peter, etc), and they left the premium costumes from DLC to either be season pass material, pre-order bonuses, or just in-game freebies (similar to Injustice 2's premium costumes.)
These variant promo-comic covers could have been used to announce that classic style characters were coming to the game.
Capcom side could have benefit from such an obvious distinction too. Like Chun could have been in her Alpha clothes, or something designed by a Marvel artist. Ryu could have taken the "Hot Ryu" as his default. Arthur could have had a Maximo inspired look, Spencer could have started as the Bionic Commando style look, etc. It would have been a nice way to make the returning cast feel like more than MvC3 CopyPasta.
It seems really weird that they pretend to think "People might not remember the X-men!" but they're not really trying to show anything that's fresh or unique for those already in game. I'd buy the line, if the cast was recent 2010s Marvel comics, Netflix series, and TV interpretations, alongside the desired X-men and F4 concepts that were based on 90's nostalgia. But the divide doesn't seem to be anyway near as pronounced, so far.

I think people need to really ignore the line altogether. I do not for a second believe Evans or Combo truly believed what they said about no one remembering the X-Men. They simply can't speak on the subject, so they gotta come up with an excuse (albeit, a very bad one) to deflect the question.
Jawmuncher

I do agre that some new looks for the returning characters could've helped a lot in making the game not look so recycled from afar. Some of those costumes they're working on could've just been swapped to be the defaults.
I agree with this.
But it's a modern Capcom game being discussed on the internet, so people are going to hate anyway.
Jawmuncher

Of course. But the fact they said it at all is always gonna be criticized. Damned if you do damned if you don't. When you have to side step bullshit reasons for another company.
If they were able to straight up say "It's marvels fault". I think a lot of the blame would shift accordingly. But since they can't Capcom is the wall that's going to take the majority of the criticism, since most people see it as "capcoms game".
Even though most here know what's up
The bigger problem is that they didn't have a proper response practiced beforehand. This is why PR people exist, they should have known this question would have been asked from the moment the game was announced.
