What obscure characters from the marvel universe do you eventually want to see appear in the game? Not the most well known characters but ones you have a geeky love for?
Myself i would love to see Count Nefaria, he was always one of my favourite Avengers villains.
On the hero side Black Knight is very cool.
As a support card Rick Jones would be amazing as a basic card, as he has been part of so many heroes supporting casts.
Whats your choices for more obscure characters?
Your comment about Rick Jones as a basic support card got me to thinking about Night Nurse. My knowledge of Marvel comics barely extends past the movies, but I did read "Doctor Strange: The Oath" and looked up a little more information on her and I think she'd make an awesome basic persona support. Sort of an Aunt Mae, but she works as an action so you can use her healing ability on other heroes (she'd just heal heroes, not allies; I think that would make her OP). She could look something like:
2 cost basic support
Trait: Persona
Action: Pay 1 (mental) resource and exhaust Night Nurse --> heal 5 damage from one hero or 2 damage from each hero in play.
(I'm not great at figuring out card design stuff, so that might be really OP at how much damage it can heal, but I think the basic idea would work.)
Not really an obscure hero, but I’d really like to see Namor. I feel he never gets the attention he deserves in the mainstream Marvel stuff. Also I didn’t realize how much I want a Rick Jones ally until now.
Yes Rick Jones has been important to Hulk, Cap, Mar-Vell, the Avengers, the list goes on.
Dont know what his ability should be, but he was always there to help!
I would love for a Jamie Madrox hero (Multiple Man) with like 8 to 10 different dupes of himself (allies) that each bring a different trait/ability to the table. A spy, a detective, you name it... each trigger something when they are "reabsorbed" (leave play) by Jamie Prime.
I would totally love a Stegron escenario, with a deck chock-full of rampaging dinosaur minions.
Heroes/Allies: Howard the Duck, Beta Ray Bill
Villains/Minions: Blastaar, Syphonn, Absorbing Man, Volcana, Dragon Man

Rumour has it, we might be seeing a Night Nurse Card in the Dr Strange set...

I’d love some Namor!
Not really obscure but I want Spider-Gwen (Ghost Spider)....
And I want her now, lol. I was really hoping the teaser silloutte that ended up being Black Widow was Spider-Gwen

I'm totally down with that! Though I do hope she's a persona (or aspect/basic ally) and not his designated ally. That should be Wong.
I’d like to see Moonknight. He’s basically Batman with multiple personality disorder.
Can you imagine a hero with 3 different alter egos? Lol

It looks like a Protection Support Persona from what I’ve seen. 3 uses - exhaust to heal 1 and remove a status card. So like a unique med team.

The person who bought the Dr Strange pack has been releasing snippets of cards to people on Discord and some enterprising people have been able to put together several cards, including this one.

I think Deadpool, with any associated characters (Ie Domino)

If they can figure out how to make Deadpool break the 4th wall on the cards it will be one of the most fun decks they ever make.

My vote was gonna go toward any of the New Warriors characters. The one who has the closest shot is Richard Rider Nova considering he's had a bit of a resurgence in the comics considering his affiliation with the GotG. I could see characters like Night Thrasher, Speedball, Firestar, Justice and Namorita as allies in his deck.
I think they're considered X-men characters but a few characters I really enjoyed a few years back that could probably be considered "obscure" are Dr. Nemesis and Fantomex. Also, from his time with X-Force: Deathlok. Of course, Deathlok was from back in the early 90's, but his more recent time with X-Force and the "Agents of SHIELD" were pretty fun. Let's throw Darkhawk in there too since we're talking about the New Warriors and early 90's characters.
Edited by HirumaShigureA classic Hellfire Club villain scenario would be awesome too. Do it Wrecking Crew style where you take on Sebastian Shaw, White Queen, Donald Pierce, and Mastermind. Throw in some nameless gun toting Hellfire Club guards for good measure. How about the Heroes have to escape from them instead of stopping them from doing some random shenanigans...?
I think technically The New Warriors would be X-Men adjacent as well considering many of them are mutants. It's hard not to bump into characters being X-Men related though considering their tendrils stretch out pretty far in the comics.

Have you seen Guise for Sentinels of the Multiverse? On one card, he's using the card type box as a weapon. I don't remember what the rest of them are like.
