    My guesses are GOD EMPEROR DOOM or PURPLE MAN.

    1) DOOM (GOD EMPEROR):
      pretty much believable to be a 5-star character; he "needed love" of Sue Storm, so in Secret Wars upon becoming a "GOD" he saved her and she became his wife in Battleworld; Despite the Cabal guys, we have every character from the lifeboat made by Reed Richards;
    blacktile.png RUTHLESS LEADERSHIP - Every once in a while the Emperor has to show what happens if you do not obey him. Nevertheless he can't do it very often, 'cause your subordinates will rebel against your dictatorship;
    purpletile.png STOLEN OMNIPOTENCE - Power stolen from Beyonders;
    yellowtile.png MERCY of DOOM - Supports his subordinates: Barons, Thor Corps and etc.

    2) PURPLE MAN (Zebediah Killgrave):
      he just "needed love" of Jessica Jones; The 8th of March is coming and it was an interesting villain in recent female-driven Netflix series. Imagine an event in which we get 4-star Jessica Jones (much wanted character!!!) and whole female squad of Marvel to battle this villain!!!
    blacktile.png - brutal sociopathic behavior, purpletile.png - tricky pawns, yellowtile.png - support his pawns.

    btw... I WANT MY WINTER SOLDIER.... icon_cool.gif


    Just wait until Civil War comes out, just like strange and gambit are probably coming around October/November when their respective movies come out. And just to be different im guessing this character to be Lady death or Rogue. FEMALE POWER.

    I already guessed in the patch thread that it is Green Goblin and I continue to think that way.

    What I don't understand though is why Norman Osborn should be the Green Goblin here, instead of Harry, and all this considering the hint they gave us: "Villains need love too". Harry Osborn is more appropriate because he had love triangles with Peter and Mary Jane, and also Peter and Gwen. The hint doesn't make any sense for Norman in my opinion.

    There was an arc, not too long ago, called Sins Past, where it was revealed that Gwen Stacy had slept with Norman Osborn, and also gave birth to two twins: Gabriel and Sarah Stacy.

    Yep, I'm surprised by the choice I have to admit.

    What the heck... they didn't mention Starlord when he would actually work really well with him. icon_lol.gif

    ... which is ironic, since Starlord is the character who might benefit most from fortified cd tiles...

    The irony is fairly killing me on that one. They specifically mention two of the three CD-focused 4* characters, and yet....
  • The question is does his black power hurt one person or the whole team? The interview says foes and the power description says foe. His power is one more than Silver Surfer, does about the same damage, and can be permanently lost.

    "Star Lord is mentioned in a new character release article" will forever be part of the MPQ forum drinking game.
  • This is all sort of anti-climatic for me. Norman Osborn just does not fit into a 5 star category in my personal opinion. When I think of Epic characters, I think of Silver Surfer, Phoenix, World War Hulk, Owen Reese.. Basically your Omega level threats. Green Goblin was a 4 star at best.

    of course, I don't have all the specs though for his Trick Or Treat power, that one is very interesting!

    sooo... I'm still in this meeting. I will have to update later tonight and I apologize about this delay.
