Apologies if this has already been brought up, but am I correct in thinking that Hawkeye is the first character to be represented across all star levels? (Granted, 4* is Kate Bishop, but her code name is “Hawkeye.”)
Spiderman, if you allow similar leeway for Miles Morales.
Oh, yeah - I forgot about 2* Bagman. Yeah, I consider Miles to be “Spiderman.” Thanks!
How do we not have a 2* Iron Man??
I still think it’s a bit off that for all the iconic characters in the game that Hawkeye was the 2nd chosen to be represented at every tier.
Of course any expectations for balanced character representation should have gone out the window the day a second 4* Venom was announced.
i think Iron Man 35 should be 2 star and the 1 star should be model 1
The bigger question is how is there not a 1* Wolverine?
Obligatory complaint about there only being a 1* Juggernaut.
1 star cap would also bring him into 1 to 5 territory.
Well 2 on 4 if you count peggy.
Miles Morales is a Spider-Man, he is not the Spider-Man. There is a distinction that must be made. When Homecoming is released I am expecting, nay… DEMANDING a 4-star Spider-Man that is finally …amazing…
I don’t count Kate as filling in, any more than War Machine counts for Iron Man, or Miles counts as Peter Parker.
They’re similar, certainly, no denying that, but they’re still distinct characters. Dick Grayson took over as Batman during the Knightfall storyline, doesn’t make him Bruce Wayne, you know? I mean, that’s why she’s Kate Bishop (Hawkeye) and not Hawkeye (Kate Bishop). (you know, ignoring the slightly wonky naming conventions, because technically 1*/2*/3*/5* Hawkeyes should be “Clint Barton (Subtype)”, and 1*/2*/3*/5* Spidey should be “Peter Parker (Subtype)” for similar reasons, but I think they get to cheat and have the hero name first because it’s still THEIR identity. Someone tells you the MCU is getting a Hawkeye movie, everybody’s going to think Renner as Barton, not a new actress playing Kate.
So yeah, I don’t see this game as having a full 1-5* coverage for any one character yet. 2* Iron Man would be nice to throw in an extra suit. 1* Wolverine, run him as Weapon X (complete with that goofy helmet when he wakes up in the lab), and I can see odds being high of a 4* Peter Parker Spidey for Homecoming’s release. Might get one of them covered then (of course, if you want to get picky as I did above, 5* Wolverine isn’t the same dude as 2*/3*/4*, but we’re splitting different hairs there, since it is the same dude, but from an alternate universe; would 4* Zombie Spider-Man count as Peter Parker? maybe?)

we could do a year of just Spider-people!
There has yet to be a character that exists at every star level. (Hawkeye is an identity, not a character.)
Azrael took over as Batman during the Knightfall Storyline
I worked at a comic book store in 1993
Neither of whom is Steve Rogers
They should do a stealth armor two-star. Black, blue and red.
Weapon-X 1 star Wolverine. Would be hilarious using that version for the weakest level.
No, no, no, it should be the Origins Wolverine, you know - with bone claws and no adamantium.
Unintentional censor of Mr. Grayson’s first name makes me chuckle.
Sounds more like the first 6* to me.
