When I read the "another urban crime fighter with a long and storied career" part of the preview, I started hoping that (thanks to First Wave) we'll get Doc Savage. Although a Modern Age version of Wildcat would also be awesome.

We know Sloane is already in the set (another one I'm really looking forward to), but I would LOVE to get Doc Savage and Al Pratt.
Golden Age Atom has been at the top of my "want" list for a long time. Ideally, I'd like two Al Pratts. One in his original costume who is just a pint-sized brawler and one in his later fin-head costume with his atomic punch power.
I too hate being reminded of the retcon; it's one of those things I try to ignore, like Mopee. But even so, it wasn't a "time-traveling" Superman, it was Rama Kushna showing Lee Travis visions of the future.
Well, the preview says "Gifted by Rama Kushna with a vision of Superman’s selflessness", so where does the "time travelling Superman" quote come from?
I'm wondering if I missed something in the preview?

They are talking about the description on the character card.
Ah, thank you for the clarification!

Mini poll: Which, if any, of the following Seven Soldiers should be done as duos?
Star-Spangled Kid & Stripesy
TNT & Dan the Dyna-mite
Green Arrow & Speedy
(Spandex-clad) Scarlet Avenger & Wing
In general I'm not a big fan of duos, but WK is probably hesitant to take up too many slots with older characters like these.
Of the four, I'd like to see:
TNT & Dan the Dyna-mite
Green Arrow & Speedy
I wouldn't throw away Star-Spangled Kid & Stripesy by any means - I'd just rather have individual clicks. GA/Speedy makes the most sense for a duo - we have versions of them as solos. I'd actually eventually like to get all Mentor/Sidekick pairs as duos. TNT & Dan the Dyna-mite make sense as a duo from their powers and activation. I wouldn't want them as singles.
As for (Spandex-clad) Scarlet Avenger & Wing, i'm just ignorant - so there's no desire for me. Considering we're getting a CA here, I'd rather not get another slot taken by the character.

They appear to be choosing their previews well. Nobody who's a big name, but the effective low-cost dials are still a nice treat. And of course, Fedoras make everything better.
Booooooooooooo. Come on I waited all week for this? I dont care if its a good click or not, give me a look at one of the sr or one of the white lanterns.
