    Are we sure that it's Howard? That seems to run contrary to what was said when he was announced.

    Only reason I can come up with is that 4/1 overlaps when his crash would run.

    Ugggggggggggggh two Agent Venom covers. I don't think he's absolutely horrible but I guess my hand is forced on my next champion!

    2 Agent Venom covers. As if we needed more confirmation that they hate us icon_e_sad.gif

    Can this be the April Fools joke instead of the Howard gag? I'll laugh along with you, I swear!

    Howard the Duck in crash.

    Hopefully this means a duck season as well....

    With so many old 4*s vaulted, I don't understand why they are only using "the latest 12" as PvE rewards most of the time now... We had Gwen, Peggy, Blade, Agent Venon (2 progressions icon_cry.gif ) and now Medusa... with only FalCap and SL in the meantime. Why focus on the latest so much if they are available in tokens? Please, give more chances for the old, vaulted ones... I myself can only earn covers with progression PvE besides tokens, and keeping things like this makes everything more difficult than they already are.

    Disappointed by The Hulk being next and not Duck Season or at least having Howard in progression/placement. So I guess those of us without him aren't gonna get a shot (or are you going to insult us by putting him in an HP vault only)

    It was stated recently that the reason that several characters were skipped over in the Crash rotation was because they hadn't yet been offered as PvE rewards and the devs wanted to give players a chance to cover them better. It seems lately, with a lot of PvE rewards like Gwenpool, Bl4de, Agent Venom and now Medusa, they're looking to address that by getting newer characters into the rotation.

    Today's challenge. Figuring out which one is the imminent April Fool's joke. Or are they all April Fool's jokes? Maybe none at all?

    Confer! This is mostly for my entertainment. D3 Go! didn't tell me to do this. Hehe

    We've got Featured Characters listed twice and no Progression rewards, can we get a fix please Brigby?

    Two Agent Venom nom nom covers. That's actually pretty nice for me, as long as none of them is black. Still would have prefered it if it was two covers of a less-available character.

    I'm in the same boat. Why couldn't it be Medusa for the 7day event?

    I have to admit I'm quite happy that they're rewarding these "new" characters more frequently in PVE. There were a few (justified) complaints in the past as Spider-Woman, War Machine and Wasp were skipped in "Crash of the Titans". Now we can look forward to Gwenpool's, Medusa's and Blade's crash debut.

    But on the other side I can understand those people which want to build up their older 4* characters. They should feature old and new 4* characters in alternating order.

    Should we expect that the event after "The Hulk" is going to be a release event for the new unnamed 4* character?

    would it be possible, when announcing awards, if you could add the color(s) as well?
    ex. progression award: 4 star Agent venom, black and yellow
    thanks!

    Yes that would be great. Especially since this would eliminate my stupid questions always asking which colors they will be (knowing I should pay better attention).

    Which made sense in a pre vaulting world, but now it doesn't make much sense when you can build a newly released character to crash readiness in a month.

    Yup. My Mordo has eight covers. Teen Jean has four. No way I could even get close to winning her Crash, but he'll probably be champed before his comes around.
