    Phew. Glad we had a Venom Bomb break in between.

    This is great.  I'm just going to pretend that this means double iso events surrounding new releases is standard from now on.

    Oh wait... a new event? "Free" new 4* cover.. and three story events running concurrently?

    Need to see those Civil War rewards. Normally you get one 4* on one side, and one on the other. Is one side going to have Ghost, and the other some other 4*? 

    Rad to see a new villain AND another run of Growth Industry AND more general Ant-Man & The Wasp celebrations.

    "Just a Phase" looks like Ghost's PVP, not a new story event.

    All this 2x iso is making my spider-sense tingle... all this goodwill... when's the other shoe dropping?

    The previous Wasp PvP ran for 3 days 19 hours and this is running for 4 days 6 hours. So, I thought it's a new event. It got to be her PvP. Anyway, lots of good stuff this month.

    Edit: just saw the other topic about Ghost. It seems the PvP date in this thread is incorrect.

    Glad to see more double iso, it would go a long way to have one of these type of events once per month or so.  I also really am liking Ghost, I think she could be a good 4*.

    Yes. That's correct. "Just a Phase" is the Versus Tournament for Ghost

    Will Ghost also be getting a Shield Training, or will Growth Opportunity 3 be taking its place?

    I'm betting we'll see Ant-Man on team cap and W4sp on team Iron Man for the civil war progression, but ideally (for me) it'll be somebody else because both are at 13 covers and I won't be able to save them.

    Yes. She will also be getting a S.H.I.E.L.D. Training event. You can see the details of it on Ghost's character announcement post: Ghost (Quantum Thief)

    Cool, thanks @Brigby ! Looks like the lineup for it doesn't favor my roster especially well, but thems the breaks! Ghost looks fun to me, look forward to getting a few covers.

      These offers are false. Prices have been raised by 16.7% in addition to resources increasing by 30%. £14.99 is now £17.49

      Awesome! This is how you get us excited for in-game character releases and the movie they're tied to at the same time. I haven't even seen 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' yet, but I already feel good about it.

      This has been a great release period. Thanks so much for the extra side events and the double ISO!
      This x10.

      Not complaining about the double ISO for a second. All of this stuff has been fantastic so far!. So please keep that in mind when I say what I'm about to say.

      Where the hell was all of this when Infinity War came out!? Yeah we got some new characters, but no double ISO, no special themed stuff (as in tagging something with an Infinity War banner that gave bonuses). That was the biggest Marvel movie since Avengers Assemble and it barely seemed to register in the game.

      What's made Ant Man & The Wasp become such a major impact?

      Again, not complaining at all. This is how it should always be! I'm just very baffled.
