New Heroes for Hire Team Unveiled

[GrnMarvl14]

Link.

The new Heroes for Hire? Colleen Wing. Misty Knight. Black Cat (yes...THAT Black Cat). Shang-Chi. Paladin. Silver Sable. Humbug. A new Tarantula (because there really AREN'T enough spider-themed characters at Marvel). And...Orka.

I was hoping to link each name to an info page, but the site's down now (the link above is to a different site that's ALWAYS up).

Ok. I get all of them, except Humbug, Tarantula, and Orka. And...ORKA? Seriously. Was U-Man too busy? Tiger Shark still in jail? ORKA? The man's claim to fame is being a whale-shaped Atlantean who's none too smart. Man wears no shoes, but could be beaten by the line "hey, your shoes are untied." Seriously...ORKA? I like him appearing from time to time, but as a regular cast member? Uh-uh.

But...discuss.

I won't be picking up this book now, thanks to this.

Who are Humbug and Paladin? *n00b*

Humbug...I'm not sure. But Paladin's the greatest mercenary ever. Dated the Wasp for a time. I wish the Marvel Database was up...could probably find the info there. Dunno why it's down. But anyway...I'm sure someone else can at least post a link to Paladin, if not Humbug.

Humbug amplifies the sounds of insects, and uses them as sonic waves.

FINALLY the Database is back up.

Humbug
Paladin
Black Cat
Silver Sable
Colleen Wing
Misty Knight
Shang-Chi
Orka

No info or pic on the female Tarantula, but that should be enough for everyone.

New Heroes for Hire info.

Looks like Silver Sable, Paladin, and Orka AREN'T locked in, and the cast will rotate as new people are needed for specific missions (kinda like a non-mystic Secret Defenders, I guess).
