Secret Wars in Marvel Future Fight









Netmarble Games' Marvel Future Fight brings "Secret Wars" in the new update of one of the anticipated games in smartphones. With the said update some players are quite happy and some are not.


They added 3 new playable characters that came from secret wars series " A-Force". Nico Minoru/ Sister Grimm, She-Hulk and Singularity. They also added new uniforms from different Secret Wars series like Symbiote Spider-man, 1602 Angela, 1872 Bullseye, Maestro, Hala Field uniform of Captain Marvel, Groot from Thors, Marvel Zombies Venom. Some of the uniforms are not yet available in the shop yet you can have a preview of the alternate costumes of kingpin, captain america, iron man and black widow.

Battleworld
In order to feel the secret wars in the game they also included "Battleworld" in which you will select 5 heroes and fight with other players. You can get biometrics if you manage to be part of the rankings. The requirements to participate in the battleworld changes every 2 days I think? They also included comic book covers to collect via dimension rift and gain rewards.

TBH the update is not quite good for me despite the added features. One reason some players don't like it because of the changes in the villain siege specifically in the chaos and honor token shops wherein only hulk and captain marvel are the heroes you can buy for 500 tokens with 3 biometrics. Then the other heroes are now in the chaos or honor chest. It is now more cheaper but you randomly get 1-3 biometrics for 165. Maybe I was just satisfied with the previous update (Antman update) that's why it didn't meet my expectations but I'm still playing the game and hope we could get a much cooler update once Captain America: Civil War hit the theaters.

Wolverine is the best there is!

Wolverine is my favorite superhero from Marvel and since I was a kid I follow his comics, animated show, movies and other stuff. He first appeared on the last panel of Incredible Hulk #180 and his first full appearance was on Incredible Hulk #181 (cover-dated Nov. 1974). He was created by writer Len Wein and Marvel art director John Romita, Sr., who designed the character, and was first drawn for publication by Herb Trimpe. Then years after, Wolverine joins the X-men wherein writer Chris Claremont and artist-writer John Byrne would play significant roles in the character's development in the future. Frank Miller also helped Claremont to develop more the character of Wolverine by collaborating in a four part limited series wherein the famous Wolverine's catchphrase, "I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do best isn't very nice," debuted.

His main power is his healing factor that makes him near invulnerable and can heal from any types of injuries and his famous retractable bone claws that can slash anything ( I guess so) due to Weapon X program that laced Adamantium in his bones (Yikes). I don't know why but his costume always catches my attention. He looks like two Batman hahaha but that costume give angst and excitement in my veins whenever I see it. One thing that I like about this character was his attitude. He's not the typical hero that you can see in the comics. He's more on being an anti-hero and that characteristics paved its way and then he earns the title, most favorite X-men. He's a master of all forms of martial arts and is experienced in virtually every fighting style on Earth. I like it when he go berserk ( chillin and killin). He is also knowledgeable about many things due to his increased life span wherein he traveled around the world and learned different things in each place. Wolverine is frequently depicted as a gruff loner, often taking leave from the X-Men to deal with personal issues or problems. He is often irreverent and rebellious towards authority figures, though he is a reliable ally and capable leader ( Wolverine and the X-men).

So to give you more info., I would to share this infograph from comixology.com

The skrulls are back!

SKRULLS!

Skrulls will return on Avengers #18 this coming August, written by Jonathan Hickman and art by our Pinoy artist Leinil Yu! Oh my! One of my dream team! Seriously I will save more money to buy this book. Currently, Infinity is the spotlight but what do you think will happen at the end? Skrulls invading again? hmmm let's see

"They are, in fact, one of the first races to encounter the cosmic threat as it heads toward the milky way galaxy," says Hickman of how the Skrulls get drawn into the conflict.

However, these days the race of malevolent shape-shifters barely resembles the universal powerhouse those who have followed the Marvel Universe would find familiar.

"After their crushing defeat in Secret Invasion, what we knew as the Skrull Empire was reduced to a series of fragmented, feuding territories run by regional warlords," Hickman says. "One of those more prominent warlords is Kl'rt, the Super-Skrull, who features prominently in INFINITY."

With the Builders rocketing not just in the direction of Earth but every surrounding solar system, strange alliances will come into play, perhaps none more awkward than between the Avengers and Skrulls, as Hickman notes:

"Some [Avengers] will look at [working with the Skrulls] as a necessity, the enemy of my enemy and all that. Others are much less accepting, like Spider-Woman."

Going back during the Secret Invasion of the Skrulls, Jessica drew was held captive at the hands of the Skrulls and their Queen took her form to play mind games with the people of Earth. Do you think she will play a vital role in this event? Is it the time for a little revenge after what she experienced? Let's hope and mark the date. Watch out for Avengers #18 to be release on August 21.

look at those strokes by Leinil Yu!
Proud pinoy fan here :)
