Just a shade over four months ago, I had the following 4* characters with 7+ covers:
Nick Fury - 3/4/3, 10 covers
Star-Lord - 2/4/4, 10 covers
Professor X - 3/5/0, 8 covers
Ghost Rider - 2/2/4, 8 covers
Invisible Woman - 3/1/3, 7 covers
Ant-Man - 4/2/1, 7 covers
Deadpool - 5/1/1, 7 covers

At that time, I hadn't any 13-cover 4*. Of the listed characters, my first cover from any of those came on day 310, when icon_invisiblewoman.png got her yellowflag.png .

Nick Fury became my first 4* to 13 covers, having gotten his first cover on day 400 and his 13th on day 787 - a period of 387 days for him specifically, and 477 days for my first to 13 when considering only the characters who had 7+ covers when I began the watch.

It has been 123 days since that watch began, when I had 7 4* characters at 7+ covers. 63 days in - not quite halfway between then and now - the total increased from 7 to 15. Here's where things stood:
Nick Fury (4/5/4)
Star-Lord (2/4/5)
Invisible Woman (3/3/5)
Deadpool (5/2/3)
Ghost Rider (3/2/5)
Ant-Man (5/3/1)
Sam Wilson (Captain America) (3/2/4)
Professor X (4/5/0)
Thing (4/3/2)
Hulkbuster (4/1/3)
Elektra (2/3/2)
Jean Grey (2/2/3)
Kingpin (1/4/2)
Mr. Fantastic (3/1/3)
She-Thor (2/2/3)

In the 70 days since Fury became my first 13-cover, my coverage has grown further still:

Nick Fury (4/5/4) - 13 covers; champion
Star-Lord (3/5/5) - 13 covers; champion
Jean Grey (3/5/5) - 13 covers
Thing (5/4/4) - 13 covers
Captain Falcon (4/3/5) - 12 covers
Deadpool (5/4/3) - 12 covers
Ghost Rider (4/3/5) - 12 covers
Invisible Woman (3/3/5) - 11 covers
Ant-Man (5/3/2) - 10 covers
Hulkbuster (5/2/3) - 10 covers
Mr. Fantastic (4/3/3) - 10 covers
Professor X (5/5/0) - 10 covers
She-Thor (2/4/4) - 10 covers
Elektra (3/4/2) - 9 covers
Winter Soldier (3/2/4) - 9 covers
X-23 (2/5/2) - 9 covers
Kingpin (1/5/2) - 8 covers
PunMax (2/1/4) - 7 covers
Venom (4/2/1) - 7 covers

Seven others are just below that 7-cover threshold with 6 covers.

Now, at this point, 2+ months after my first 4* champion, SCL has more impact on my roster growth than it had had the last time I tracked progress. But between that, tokens from CP spending, and 11 victories from 14 pins on Crash days (with another coming up in a few hours!), plus the occasional grace of RNGesus, I've gone from 12 4* characters at 6+ covers to 26 in 123 days, out of 35 total 4* on my roster.

Feels good seeing my 4* roster round into usable form at faster than a glacier's pace.
