Fantasy Comic League: January 2017 – Preview

The #FantasyComicLeague adds four new participants and grows into a two-headed monster in 2017! Much like the monsters the Marvel superheroes will be facing in the upcoming Monsters Unleashed crossover event. While behemoths and demons run rampant across the Marvel U in January, the war between the mutants and Inhumans turns heroes into monsters in Inhumans vs. X-Men. Captain Marvel, and the recently grounded members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, all continue on with their fresh starts on planet Earth. The new year and season also ushers in a new Avengers team spearheaded by Sunspot and Squirrel Girl, as well as an anticipated meeting between Ironheart and Moon Girl!

The Mixed Marvel Arts Fantasy Comic League has split into two five-participant divisions: The Midtown Division and the Wakanda Division. Eligible heroes are allowed to be drafted once per division and each division will have a separate winner at the end of the four-month season. Please follow along with our #FantasyComicLeague tweets on our Twitter for official power scoring and for your chance to join the official league and win a trade paperback collection of your choice!

These appearance estimates, based on comic solicitations and cover artwork provided by the Marvel Database wiki, are meant as a guideline and not an indication of a specific draft order. Character names, team designations and power sets conform to the most current information provided by the Database. Power designations are simplified for easier classification and choice, providing the majority of the heroes with 9 to 11 eligible powers from which to choose. As a reminder, you may only have one hero per team designation on your roster and are allowed to select three powers from the heroes’ power set. Powers in (parenthesis) are a subset of the overall ability and can be selected as well as the generic use of that power. For example, Deadpool can be drafted as any of his four team classifications and can use Weapons, Blades and Guns as his three powers (Blades and Guns being a subset of the overall Weapons skill).
