    "Birds of a Feather" might be Starling.

    Guess it's not 4* Joaquin Torres because of Betsy. So he has to be the 3* and this variant cover to celebrate Brave New World

    5* Sam Wilson - Captain America

    Avengers Issue #23 (2025) - Jed MacKay

    I’m not convinced we need a second 3* Falcon and would support the devs breaking their recent-ish tradition and only releasing a 5* in this instance.

    I hope the rebalance to 3 star Psylocke just fixes her useless Blue. The Red and Black powers are fine as they deal damage and put out and SAP tile.

    And just to call out, her second rebalance. Remember her original blue? Steal up to 19ap from a single colour if I recall correctly

    Will Sabra be the next 2*? She's in the movie afterall.

    I would bet all my money Sabra is not a character we will get.

    Are you just trolling?

    We got Golden Oldie, Big Wheel and Doctor Bong. No Marvel property is out of the question.

    It's a valid question. She's in the movie. Why are you attacking me?

    It's a valid question. She's in the movie, you should look it up before you make unfounded accusations.

    The name is in the movie, the character from the comics is not. Bluewolf is correct, a comic Sabra has the same chances as original Mandarin of coming to MPQ.

    Sabra was another odd choice for a Captain America movie which seems to already be filled with Hulk characters/villains. Maybe we might get one of the Serpents as a 2* assuming they are not just blink and miss cameo's.

    I’m not attacking you. I’m just saying that a character whose purpose is supporting Israeli military efforts is way too controversial politically and 100% not being put into a Marvel video game for a long time.

    Also in the movie she’s just a civilian in normal clothes. Not superpowered or anything.

    Also for all we know they cut her out of the movie.

    But then they gave us Purple Man. I still don't think we will get Sabra but I don't think "too controversial" is part of any reasoning involved.

    Maybe on your side of the ocean it's not a big deal, but Gaza was a significant factor in the outcome of our election.

    She's way more controversial than "scumbag mind controlling ****". Even if that's hard to comprehend, she is.

    I really doubt Marvel wants to plant a flag, so to speak, in this particular conflict via adding a shiny new character to one of their games.

    Oh it is a massive deal in the UK. I live in London and there is a HUGE Muslim presence, the part where I live the Muslim population is the majority of the local make-up. I know American news tends to be a bit insular when it comes to elsewhere but there have been Mass Protest rallies in the UK about Gaza and several MP's were elected last year on the back of campaigning over it. There has also been an organised boycott of businesses with ties to Israel. The Mayor of London is a Muslim. This from just last weekend:

    So, yeah. She would be incredibly controversial and odds are that some % of users would delete the app in protest if she were added.

    The only fair thing to do is dual 4* release a la contest of champions:

    Arabian Knight https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Abdul_Qamar_(Earth-616)

    Sabra
