Should MUA2 have more or less females, I think slightly more, as in the previous game lots were left out.  Legends 1 had like 50/50 ratio but then Legends 2 had only 4 females.

What do you think on this?

Characters like the following are missing out on a well deserved spot.

Jean Grey
Storm (confirmed)
Invisible Woman (confirmed)
Rogue
Emma Frost
Dazzler
Polaris
Ms Marvel
She Hulk
Scarlet Witch
Wasp
Firestar

and many more!

I can’t bewlieve I forgot these:

Black Cat
Shadowcat
Psylocke
Spider Woman

Woops and Black Widow.

I’m forgetting too much lol.

i think there should be more female characters around 10 or 12

storm (confirmed)
invisible woman (confirmed)
Emma Frost
Jean Grey
Scarlet witch
Psylocke
Rogue
Black cat
Wasp
Dagger (semi coonfirmed)
jubilee or Dazzler
Black Widow or Echo

Nice list, Dazzler over Jubilee for me.

i think dazzler would have the better powers but there would be some similarities
plus if it was dazzler they could have the rock version of dazzler from the ultimate universe

I don’t like rock Dazzler lol.
I prefer disco Dazzler lol, and her blue costume too.
I hated when she had short pink hair lol.

I also prefer more females to be playable. Ok, in general there are more popular male heroes, but there are still enough well known female heroes.

Everyone knows: Storm, Invisible Woman, Elektra (she wasn’t that great in MUA, but maybe she’s getting 2nd chance), Jean Grey (if look at forums and polls, she actually is one of the most popular characters in the marvel universe), Emma Frost, Scarlet Witch (any Avengers/X-men fan knows her), Ms. Marvel (just like Scarlet Witch), Black Widow, Dazzler (she got her own title), Shadowcat, Wasp (although I doubt if she fits in a game like this), Psylocke, She-hulk, Spider-woman, Rogue, ...

Yeah I agree with you wings.  Some more females would be nice.  But still have the popular males like Wolverine etc.

I think we really have to face the fact that comic books are pretty sexist… I mean, all the popular iconic heroes are males… and the only popular female characters only seem to be popular because the artists always conventiently design them with either
a) big boobs
b) big butt
c) a revealing outfit
d) all of the above
It’s stupid, but after reading the recent Hulk issue with She-Hulk and her ‘Lady Liberators’, I realised ‘… None of these guys are really that popular’, I mean most people have no idea who Hellcat or Tigra are… And people only seem to get into these games based on popularity, in which case the playable females should probably be…

Jean Grey
Invisible Woman
Ms Marvel
Storm
Spider-Woman
Elektra (If they do her right this time)
Black Widow (I’m iffy on that one...)
She-Hulk

I didn’t list many X-Girls because X-Men is the only part of Marvel comics where the guys and girls get equal treatment… well, as equal as you can get in comics…

Another example of how comics are sexist: Out of all the founding Avengers, of which ONE is a female, which one is the least popular? Answer: the Wasp.

So basically, out of the 24 playables, I can only see 8 of them being girls, max. If there’s any more than that, they’d just be doing it to satisfy the people who want more females because they think its sexist. Even if that is true.

Thats a good point theVica.  The should totally take that into account.

I’d say definetly more females. There are so many good ones in the Marvel universe. So hopefully the Thunderbolts are playable just to add Moonstone and Songbid in.

Actually I find people hate Hank more than Janet. They find him much more arrogant and useless.

I would love Moonstone as a Thunderbolt, but not Songbird, although she is already semi-confirmed.

I never said she was hated, I said she was unpopular. People hate Hank, but at least they know who he is. People hate Doctor Doom, doesn’t mean he’s unpopular.

Also, Songbird’s semi-confirmed? Whaddya mean?

Yeah, I completely agree on your previous post, theVica. That’s way I love the X-men, because the X-men are not so typical and “perfect”. I’m also a big Ms. Marvel fan, but she’s almost too perfect; she’s the Wonder Woman of the Marvel Universe. But if we’re getting 8 females (the good ones), I would be happy. But… the more the merrier! This game can create more popularity for these characters.
