Design a Character - Deep Cuts edition!
Thought it might be fun to make come up with some character ideas that really plumb the depths of Marvel's publishing history. I envision this as mostly a joke thread, but maybe some great ideas will come out of left field along with the laughs. The rule is that the character(s) must have appeared in comics published by Marvel, even if they are non-canon to the main Marvel universes (including crossover promotional comics, etc.). Have fun everyone! Here's some contributions to get the ball rolling.
Beavis (Beavis & Butthead)
1-Star
Red/Black/Blue
Low health
F-f-f-FIRE! FIRE!! (Red) - 5 AP

I! AM! CORNHOLIO!! (Black) - 12 AP
Beavis consumes caffeine and transforms into the Great Cornholio. Are you threatening him? (portrait art would change while Cornholio is in effect)
L1 - Creates a 3 turn black countdown tile. As long as it remains on the board, Beavis deals an extra 25% damage when he matches tiles or his Fire attack tiles deal damage.

Well, it's impossible for me to ignore the fact that Transformers was published by Marvel back in the 80's. I started working on an Optimus Prime character and while researching how I wanted his abilities to shape up, I learned that in 2007 there was a New Avengers / Transformers crossover. I'm so bummed I didn't know this had happened. I'll go back to writing this up later. I need to go check my Marvel subscription for those issues.0
