    It's probably Wakanda related. Next release is on November 3, and premier is on October 26. I go with Nakia.

    Still holding out hope for Frankencastle... 

    Might also be Deathlok

    I feel like More than Human could apply to at least half of all Marvel characters.

    Googling brings up results for the Inhumans. Could they be adding another of those? Gorgon perhaps?

    Or perhaps Jack Russell from Werewolf by Night to celebrate Halloween?

    That's exactly what I thought when I read the clue.  The clue might as well be " marvel character who has super powers"

    I’d **** myself if it was deaths head. He is one of my favorite characters from the early 90s.
    I think it’s unlikely since he pretty obscure.

    Would want Death's Head v.1, yes? Original best, yes? 

    Could just as easy be Deathlok who was in that poll we got to vote on. Or Namor? He is more than human being a human/Atlantean hybrid and a mutant also.

    No way deaths head ii is superior in function. The original was cool and all but being integrated into minion and becoming this crazy assassin was so much fun to read.

    edit** love your grammar there though.

    But original killed Shockwave, yes? Hard to beat, yes? Wont be him though will it, yes?

     :D  :D
    I think original prefers the new form. I doubt it’s him, Namor sounds like a better guess to me.

    We already have a 4* Namor, but I'm going to get in early and guess that he's lined up for the 3/5 character that follows this one as I've just learnt that he's in the new Black Panther film that's released very soon and with Emma added, they're clearly making progress on completing the Phoenix Five.

    SC pvp with buffed Onslaught? 

    This will be painful.

    Wait, Killmonger is the 5* for Unstable?

    That would have been nice to know, I was expecting Arcade... (I would have spent my ISO differently)

    That is how every 5 star release has been in recent memory. The new release in prog but another 5 as the 5E.

    It would be nice if they told us who the 5E was going to be though.

    More than human: Fantomex. Final answer.

    When I googled "More than human" and "Marvel", it pointed to a promo for Inhumans. However, it took place in September 2017. After some googling to see if there's any link between Black Panther and Inhuman, it seems like Black Bolt has the closest link, and he appeared in recent movie. 4* Black Bolt?

    More Human Than Human was a hit single by Rob Zombie, whose younger brother is the frontman for Powerman 5000. 4* Power Man incoming, surely.

    Agree with the other comments about knowing the essential chars vs knowing the progression rewards. Yes, 9 times out of 10 they are one and the same, but the release events always mess with this and just adding a note to release events to say X is essential and Y are the progression rewards would easily solve this.

    This "More than human" quote triggered an "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." bell in my memory, so I looked back and this is the one character I got a lead to (if you didn't watch AoS seasons 3-4, beware spoilers):

    -AIDA aka Madame HYDRA

    AIDA was created by Holden Radcliffe, a transhumanist, who is defined within the show as a person whose goal is "to become more than human".
    I'm probably taking the hint too literally, but I wouldn't mind having Madame HYDRA added to the game.

    Would be awesome to see a tie in to Werewolf by Night; either WWbN or Man-Thing
