    Nice to see we'll be getting some temporary replacement cover art at the same time the other games are getting characters. ;P

    j/k, I'm not even hating, I know y'all gotta do it for the franchise. Besides, god knows we get 2-3 characters every month that we can't keep up with! XD

    Cool to hear about the updates to the other games. I do play Marvel Heroes 2016, and I've 100% LEGO Marvel's Avengers. Heck, I even "play" Avengers Academy. Dunno why cow-clicker games appeal to me so much, at least temporarily.

    That's gotta be Mockingbird, right? I assume just because of her choice of weapon.

    edit: Too late!

    Ya, I figured, I found it funny the article didn't mention it, just the cover art. But then again, they probably assumed we'd know we'd be getting more characters.

    Oh man, it's gotta be Mockingbird. *fingers crossed*

    I lovvvvve Squirrel Girl's. PLEASE don't revert back to that other ridiculous one, of her baking a cake.

    Ew.

    Well it's better than last year, when they nerfed 4or to celebrate Women of Marvel Month.

    I came here to say this.

    I get why some people would want an update from the classic art, but I really don't like the Scarlet Witch cover. Something about her face just looks off. I personally would prefer this one instead:Scarlet-Witch-1-61f55.jpg

    Dino is the other one I don't really like, but that's also because I really hope we get the orginial Kirby art back after this month.

    The others are awesome, though.

    I love so many of these, and hope we have a forum vote like last year for which to keep around vs which to revert to their previous ones!

    Please let us keep the art! Or allow a user chose for which art we have? That would be very awesome.

    Ew.

    Ironically, the cake baking is, unfortunately, symbolic of the current PvP meta.

    My favourite is the X-23. I really hope she gets to keep it. It looks great both small and big.

    I think the current art is brilliant. The pose, the angle and the lighting make her nose look really big and imposing, like a traditional witch.

    I would not object at all if these were kept as the regular covers. While she's not someone I have rostered, I think that the star.png Black Widow is a particular improvement over the cheesecake that normally is presented for her.
