Okay, so we got a new keyword in the Cap set that only the Invisible Woman got: Lady Liberators. This is actually a great indicator as to what other characters will be making an appearance in upcoming sets.
After researching it on the net, the modern age Lady Liberators consisted of the following heroines:
She-Hulk, Invisible Woman, Storm, Valkyrie, Thundra, Spider-Woman, Tigra, Black Widow, and Hellcat.
She-Hulk and Thundra will definitively be part of the Hulk set. Spider-Woman, Tigra and Hellcat will probably make the cut in the new Avengers set next year. Storm and Valkyrie were just made, so unless they get an errata ... But why didn't Black Widow get the keyword?!?
Following this thought process, are there other characters you think will be part of upcoming sets?
Actually Helllcat has a better chance of being part of the Hulk set of they do a Defenders theme (Hellstrom and Andromenda beg of you)
Also the Intiative and Serpent Society could herald a new Constrictor (as he fought Hulk a few times)
Lack of AIM generics(bot lots of Leaders) make me think those will pop up in Hulk

NO SANTA LEFT BEHIND
Not Just Another Empty Political Slogan
Well I figure everyone will have a ie to Hulk however nebulous like they did with Cap
Winter Guard A) Featured Russian Cap and are the Russian Avengers
Shield and Hydra are linked to Cap and his most trusted ally Nick Fury(also Secret Warrriros)
GLA Founded by his best friend, He was involved in their first official adventure (well before the ret-cons)
So even Aim has ties to Hulk (having fought him quite often as they tried to capture him/dissect him

Because WizKids is horribly inconsistent about how they hand out keywords. Black Widow should have also had the Mighty Avengers keyword (that has all but disappeared).
Femizons was also given to NO ONE that should have had it in this set as well.
Trades: WITH WoL H/W, also looking for Mandarin Rings, DoFP Rares & Nimrod

I was really hoping to see Superia show up in the Cap. She was leader of the Femizons and first showed up in a Cap comic. She'd make an awesome flying brick.
Nightshade was her second-in-command, so she definitely should have got the keyword. Diamondback too, even though she turned traitor. Convention exclusive Moonstone didn't get it either. It's like they totally forgot about this keyword.
"Some say the glass is half empty, some say it's half full. But I say ...are you going to drink that?"
The fact that we (appear to be) finally getting a Thundra makes my day! I also second the prediction of AIM agents in the Hulk set - they're always experimenting with Gamma radiation, right?
I've never really bothered with keywords since they seem like such a mess - but more and more SPs are keyword-specific. Don't like this trend. . .

It actually was a little frustrating seeing Sue got the keyword, and Natasha was left out in the dust. Granted one really can't complain with 9 keywords, all of which useful.
All I know is, with this keyword, alongside the upcoming Hulk set with She-Hulk, and Thundra I'm really excited.
Valkyrie has a shot if they do a defender's tie in, as she was a difficult to find SR from HoT. This alongside the fact she's in Roger's Secret Avengers is an added bonus. Hellcat would also flesh out the Marvel Divas finally, Storm is probably a no-go, unless we get one in the Fast Forces (with an older sculpt obviously) with the keyword.
I really don't see how Tigra wouldn't be in the Avengers set, as she's a pretty recognizable female character, likewise with a non-skrull Spider Woman.
Considering we got 3 Angels without the Champions keyword with Iceman who did in the same set, I wouldn't bank on each iteration actually having the keyword sadly.
Marvel Knights? New Warriors? Champions? Runaways? Let's do this.
