@TFrame said: Omega Red stinks. Boring character with zero personality or back story of interest. Boring and ridiculous power set (where do those coils even go when they retract? What even is a death spore?). Lazy 90s character design. He's never been in a decent story arch. Even got himself beat up by the Generation X kids. I'm sure he's coming at some point but I can easily think of 100 mutants who I'd rather see in this game. Oh, and he's also a serial child predator.
You may not like him, but to me he's one of the more memorable villains in the X-Men Animated Series, plus he's been a highly requested character in MPQ for nearly 10yrs.
Omega Red has some of my favorite Wolvie fights when I was reading comics as a kid. I’m excited if he is coming.
Also, really??? Where do the tentacles go? As if every other character is realistic? I think disliking him or finding him boring is certainly valid though. I’m not a fan of Captain America and I doubt that’s a popular opinion. So, I get it.
I just googled and found there is an Omega Red Symbiote.
Given it's the summer of symbiotes that may be why they finally allowed Omega Red into the game and that his 5* version could be yet another symbiote

As excited and certain I am it's Omega Red, the idea 5 star is Symbiote and 3 star is Original is something I was afraid of. For someone so requested to not make him a 5 star would be so weird.
Your first sentence went back in time and upset 11 year old me.

I bet Children of the Atom and the Marvel vs games helped his popularity too. The late 90s, early 2000s were truly the golden age of Capcom arcade games.
Is "Red's in some of the in game comics" (paraphrasing) the entirety of the evidence for your hypothesis?
If so, I don't buy it. No hate, it's just not reasonable to be so certain with such unreliable evidence.
Just my opinion though.

He is so cheaty in both of those with his poxy tentacles. Another reason to despise him.
If that's the case then I better see 5* Punisher (Symbiote) too
I remember a What If? comic that did Punisher!Venom from when I was younger, is that image from it or did Marvel bring that more recently?

No clue. If it wasn't for MPQ, I would have no idea what happened after I stopped reading during Onslaught in the 90s
5* Punisher - Frankencastle or Angel Punisher?
5 star War machine punisher
I desperately want War Machine Suit Punisher. His design is just so so good

I know it won't be popular currently, but I do like the symbiote Punisher too. Very cool indeed.
If we get a 5* Punisher it should be the version when Frank was a black dude that teamed up with Luke Cage.

Wasn’t that storyline related to a prison break…the 90s…anywho, Frankencastle would be cool.
