in MPQ General Discussion
I realize these types of threads get started at least once a month....so like, you’re welcome!  Lol

2020 still has some new releases to go, but honestly, this year is so horrifying that I just want to look past the year’s end.  Sometimes I find myself happy with new characters, and at other times bummed with the new release.  I’m an older comic-lover in his late-forties, so some of my most-wanted characters are a little out there.  Without further ado, here’s my most-wanted

Spider Villains:  Scorpion, Hobgoblin, Electro, Lizard, Rhino

Others:  Mojo, Longshot, Spiral, Captain Britain, The Brood, Sauron, Red Skull, Taskmaster (BW movie version), The Marauders, Caliban

    Most wanted: Wrecking Crew, Red Skull, Zemo and Enchantress. In that order.

    Also We already have Scorpion in game: at some point in comics he was a host of Venom's symbiote and at that time he was a Dark Avengers member posing as Spider-Man. In MPQ its presented as 1*Venom. But I assume You think about more classic version, so I just leave it here as trivia.

    I could think of some great power kits to emulate Leech or Absorbing Man that would make them favorite or meta

    Second (third?) Longshot, Capt. Britain, and Omega Red. 

    Also, obscure longshot request - Gateway.

    @zonatahunt
    I’d second most of those, adding Warlock (from New Mutants).

    @Rosraf
    Gateway is someone I’d like to see in game, but also obviously a support. Forge maybe?

    Honestly.....There is only 1 character I really really want. I want a 5 star Superior Iron Man. If Cap has 2 5 stars, why can't Iron Man?

    I’m still astonished Omega Red is not in game, I’ve voted for him every survey and from here and Facebook he is always mentioned.... has to be 5* though.

    Jingoistically I’d also love to have Brian Braddock in game 😂

    Hank Pym

    Red Skull

    Arcade (preferably as a boss)

    Blob/Pyro/Toad

    Lizard

    A nanotech Iron Man suit. Infinity War or Endgame would have been nice, but what I REALLY want is THIS from the comics, that can function away from Tony, turn into Hulkbuster, has a stealth mode, and a full on Samurai getup complete with sword. Hook me up with some insane awesome Iron Man nonsense, please.

    Ooh, I like suggestions for Forge, Maddrox, and Puck too. 

    Before 5-stars existed, I predicted Silver Surfer, Phoenix, and Old Man Logan should/would be the firsts (on these boards). My fourth prediction - Power Pack including Franklin Richards.  It was a joke, but if we can have Howard the Duck, we can have a Power Pack.

    I still don't understand why Mantis is the only one from the infinity saga not in the game.. 

    That's why I would love to see Mantis, but I'm afraid they will wait for gotg3 release

    Mr_F Posts: 744 Critical Contributor
    Thay waited with Heimdall and others so Mantis maybe sooner than you think.

    I decided to wander off the well trodden path of Wrecking Crews and look for some more out there options. Of course none of these have a hope in the hot place but why not have some fun, eh?
    If you want a Samurai themed Marvel robot then look no further than:
    RED RONIN! I like that in the Earth X series, Tony Stark actually turns big red into his home/armour where he lives inside!
    Speaking of EARTH X, I am not too big a fan of Red Skull but this was a very cool twist
    Anybody remember Mutant X? The version of The Beast was green and amphibious! We could do with a 4* Beast!
    Now for something AWESOME:
    Awesome Android to be precise! Or Andy as he likes to be called!
    This next guy just maybe the most creepy bad guy in Marvel history:
    The evil demon Belasco who was responsible for kidnapping little Illyana and bringing her up in a hell dimension with this guy as a "play mate"
    I do wonder if S'ym might be problematic in non comic book media as he was made as a parody of Dave Sim but the two of them would reflect the more supernatural theme the X-Men went through for a while. He would probably have made a nifty Support.
    Considering that he was the backbone of the MCU for the first 10 years, we have basically zero Iron Man villains in game (Ghost was even nicked for Antman). There are a bunch to choose from too, although some of them might be a bit outdated and difficult to adapt for modern audiences (I am looking at you Radioactive Man), so howzabout:
    Spymaster! Now SM isn't really all that much in terms of a one on one battle BUT he did once steal the secrets of Tony Stark's technology and then sold it to Justin Hammer and he literally sold it to EVERYONE! Even S.H.I.E.L.D! Thus was born the Armour Wars and we got to see the sort of self determination Tony Stark possesses over fears about his technology - these themes and also his falling out with Captain America in the story heavily influenced the MCU and Civil War. And Spymaster doesn't even appear in the story!
