Looking for a few new heroes

Over at the Comixfan forum they are discussing new villains and new heroes for the game. The villains are well catered for, but which non X-Men related hero would you want to see added to the game?

Post your suggestions there, or add them here and I'll pass them on.

Ant-Man

Interestingly, the wiki article on Ant-Man reveals that this is Scott Lang, not Hank Pym. As someone who was a fan of Scott Lang, and unhappy that he was used as fodder in Avengers Disassembled, I'm very happy with this.


X-Assault wiki

The X-Assault Wiki is developing into a very useful resource. Well worth checking out for gameplay tips and tricks. You might find out about characters you didn't even know were in the game!

Chapter 7 introduces heroes that specialize in team support, rather than just beating the snot out of your opponent. Ant-Man is one of three.

Five things you don't know about the new X-Assault #2

Eight villains from the current X-Assault are in the new chapter, although not all of them are still villains.

This could be nine, since another can do a cameo during the mini-game.

Five things you don't know about the new X-Assault #1

Not counting the Fantastic Four themselves, five characters from the latest X-A are fully playable in Chapter 7, or possibly six depending on exactly how you count. Most of them are currently playable.
