    A bad influence....

    Dazzler speculation led to everyone coming up with crazy connections to dazzler.... 

    My serious thought may be black cat cause she always got spidey in trouble.

    You forgot to mention Bishop's art has changed.
    Now he looks really short 83

    The clue though...
    Your elders are always warning you about how your friends are a bad influence. Elders are to be trusted because they are wise. And the best elder in Marvel...Golden Oldie confirmed.

    Huh. I never realized those couldn't be shared. One time I got the prompt for a Vision cover and felt bad I couldn't share it because my FB profile is just there to back up with no friends because I smell and no one likes me.

    Thanks for correcting Bishop covering up the bottom tiles on the PC!  Mobile users didn't see it, so I figured no one would ever notice it.

    Now about Okoye (same problem)….

    A Bad Influence, obviously "A" followed by an anagram of "Influence".

    A Fine Uncle - It's Uncle Ben!!!

    (Without the restriction of starting with A, we also get things like "Fecal Ennui" and "Canine Fuel", which sound like they should be someone, but I don't know who.)

    Is this up in the Google store yet? Because I'm getting the in game update prompt but it's just the last update in store. And why am I getting that prompt this soon anyway? Aren't you supposed to get at least a day?

    Are they doing a 4* release? I had heard there was a rumour that it would be because they did a 5 4 5 release recently, and if you go through the next few months if they do a 4* next week then there will be a 5* release the same week the Captain Marvel movie comes out

    A bad influence, or during this season, we can look at it as “A bad influenza”, a diesease they are trying to make a super antibody for, a-la Captain America, or rather, the Super Soldier program, of which the MCU has the “Bad” version, Steve’s archnemesis...
    RED SKULL!!!

    "Canine Fuel" could be anyone who's made Lockjaw mad enough. I'm not familiar enough with the Inhumans to make any specific guesses from that, tho.

    Maybe it's a reference to the barely watchable early-90s film Bad Influence, starring James Spader, who also featured in the MCU as Ultron. Playable 5* Ultron on the way!

    Maximus? Would be neat to have the mad villain of the inhumans added to the pantheon.

    You're wrong! THE bad influence is ... 5* PURPLE MAAAAAN!!!!
    I'd love to see David Tennant in this game. If they do i will set up the sound at max to be sure there is no hidden wooshing :D 
    If that's Purple man but not David Tennant's i quit :( 

    Brsides fandom a 5* controlling the enemies should be awsome!

    The BH screen has changed a bit, you no longer press 'claim' and then Surprise! you get a bh, instead, in place of the claim button there is a blue little skip fwd button to the side, that takes you to the bh that you got. I almost had a heart attack when i didnt see the claim button!

    You might have wanted to mention this in the notes @Brigby

    Bad Influence ...

    5* Deadpool because of "Once Upon a Deadpool"
    Hela since Odin locked her away for so long
    Grant Ward who resurrects into Hive

    That's all I could come up with..

    In the past, there has been a display issue with BH sometimes where you saw the bonus cover first, then the actual cover you received.  This has caused a fair amount of confusion.  Maybe this change addresses that, to make sure the BH always displays second.

    That is all well and fine, i was just trying to draw attention to the display itself, as the change is rather significant. Instead of a bright big cheerful yellow claim button in the center, there is now a tiny blue one to the right bottom corner. I got invisible woman and let me tell you the little blue button did not show up well against her blue uniform. Especially as i didnt immediately know where to look for it. From now i know where to look for it, so it wont be a surprise (or cause for worry).
    And i just thought it would be nice to mention such changes in advance, like in the release notes....
