So IceIX hinted that the next character will be another lazy character, so what are your thoughts on what it will be?

Going down the 2* list, we have:
Thor
OBW
Ares
Daken
Moonstone
M. Hawkeye
Cap
C. Storm
MN Mags
Bullseye
Bag-Man

We can rule out thor and the 2*s that already have a 3* equivalent, so that leaves us with:
Ares
Daken
Moonstone
M. Hawkeye
Cap
C. Storm
Bullseye

I'm guessing that they won't release another 2 color character, so eliminating further gets us...
Ares
Moonstone
M. Hawkeye
Cap
C. Storm

My bets on Cap or C. Storm since they're among the more popular characters. Thoughts?

    I would go with Cap as well, since he has a film coming out and ties into the Avengers.

    I could see a strong possible case for any of the 5, outside of Moonstone.

    Already two Storms and IceIX has said that Captain is one of the more popular characters. What way to capitalize more than creating a hot new character with a Winter Soldier uniform?

    How the heck is Cap a popular character? He's as useful as a chocolate teapot.

    Thinking of the popular 2-stars, I don't think it will be Wolvie because we have a million Wolverines and he's got Thor's colors and OBW is powerful enough already, so I'm thinking THREE ABILITY DAKEN or cStorm (or even mStorm??)

    Gotta agree. It's going to be Cap. He's the only core avenger without multiples (or even a three star) at the moment, and he has a new film coming out soon.

    I could see it being possible for Storm (either) and OBW, as they tend to be quite popular and would thus create another upgrade path (revenue stream) for people who can't let them go.

    I do kinda wish that they'd tweak his costs... because they're still prohibitive.

    Cheers

    I would not be opposed to a new and different Mohawk Storm, but there is no way they're just going to gold star mStorm or cStorm, they would just be too OP. Game over.

    My bets on Cap or C. Storm since they're among the more popular characters. Thoughts?

    I'd also rule out Ares (as I think he's still too "new") and Mawkeye (Isn't he on the funbalancing list?)
    That leaves Moonstone, Cap and CStorm.

    The one that stands out is Cap. Which is really a little disappointing, since I'd much prefer a different version of Cap with some/all different abilities.

    In fact, the more I think about it, the more it's likely to be Cap. That Spider-Man change is ever looming on the horizon, so Lazy Cap would essentially be, "We heard you guys like 3* heroes with 2-AP stuns, well heeeeere's Steve!"

    My money will be in my pocket because it's not worth it.

    And it's going to be Astonishing Wolverine, chaps. A big frak you to people who invested on it before and after "funbalancing".
