Sandman? I'm surprised. With Homecoming's imminent release, I would have expected Vulture from Spidey's Rogues' Gallery. I'm not complaining... Happy there's a new villain, just surprised.
I agree with @bbigler, I'm often disappointed with a power that consumes special tiles, but I guess we'll wait and see if it's worth it...

Was going to post this in the other thread but it got moved/closed:
I'd be more than happy for a nice, reliable, "bread-and-butter" character; not everything has to have a new gimmick
He's got an AOE + single target stun rolled into one (for only 9 AP) and Yellow tile generation (not quite as good as direct AP generation, but there are now a few yellow abilities which I'd be happy to fuel a little faster). I think his final ability is the big question mark - it either generates protect tiles OR removes all friendly protect tiles and deals damage for each one. At 10 AP, you don't want to be double-casting that to get to the damage portion, and since it's not spammable, I'd hope that the damage is high.
If the damage numbers on his Yellow are good, I think he'll find a place on quite a few teams. There's definitely synergy potential between him and Cage or Mr F from the vintage 4*'s, and in the latest 12 I think he could play nice with Cloak & Dagger (able to accelerate yellow in different ways) and Gamora (full active rainbow pair, potential for team stuns).

DrDevilDinosaur said: WalrusGooner said: Insert lazy Metallica joke here. Ah, One more Spidey villain joins the game - as well as more Fuel to the speculation of a full sinister six line up. It might be Sad but True, but Nothing Else Matters to me than getting The Shocker. If he's not added to the game soon, I Disappear.
zodiac339 said: Do you actually want Shocker, or was it just for the Metallica sentence? I mean, he's not the worst Spiderman villain ever, but The Lizard should be added before him. And Electro. And Kraven. And Scorpion. And Rihno. And maybe Paste Pot Pete/The Trapper.
jamesh said: If they're going to be releasing a number of Spider-man themed characters, I'm happy to see it is more villains.Presumably there will be another 5* sinister six release, which will probably get a matching 3* version. Vulture perhaps?If they add sinister six themed story event into the mix, that'll be even better.

His purple swaps 14 non-yellow tiles, converting up to five to yellow. Well, his yellow sounds very disappointing then. At the very high cost of 10 AP plus 7 protect tiles on the board (and removing them), it should deal at least twice that amount of damage. Probably 3x that amount to make it worth it. Think about it, he has to fire the power twice just to get enough protect tiles, then fire it a 3rd time to remove them all and deal how much damage? 5K? Your kidding, right?
Berserk Al said: Oh, this is nice. I was wishing for a yellow tile generator. And team damage plus stun is great, too.Now I would like next 4star to be Mysterio (please no other level than 4-star, as I only want him to have a Crash of Titans, and make it be against Old Man Logan).But probably a 4-star Peter Parker is next. And then I suppose two versions of Vulture.
ntcplanters said: Glad for Sandman coming out. Glad that it is not another version of Wolverine, Spiderman, Iron Man, etc.Wishing that MPQ would work on new Clearance Levels (@ Rank 73). Wishing they would stop the color locking w/covers, and allow us to choose which ability to power-up, when we pull a cover: preventing 4* duplicate cover pulls that we cannot use (I am starting to waste Legendary pulls). Wishing they would have an Alliance-based Hub, and allow for Alliance Wars, Alliance Rewards, and other Social based events. Wishing for a crafting system. Wishing for anything other than another 4* to come out in 2 weeks. Wishing...
