I wonder if UDE have any plans to expand the Negative Zone cards available?

I've read up on some of the stuff from there, and some of it is quite interesting, maybe enough for some legacy content, since Negative Zone is the only affiliation never to be seen since Origins...

Probably in Herald of Galactus.

Why?

There hasn't been ANYTHING since Origins. Why would they bring out something now?

Not that I wouldn't want them to. Maybe I'm just being NEGATIVE.

Ha haa. See what I did there? :p

Because the Negative Zone ties in DIRECTLY with the Annihilation storyline. Which the Heralds of Galactus storyline is supposed to tie in to.


SPOILER

























And in Annihilation, Annihilus and his massive armies of bugs, including many of his "queens", have begun to slaughter massive portions of the Marvel universe wholesale. Entire empires have already been wiped out in the first book alone, and others are in serious jeopardy, including the Kree and Skrull Empires. We are talking galactic levels of destruction occuring already.

Thanos and Death are tied in, because Death portents to Thanos of one who has already done great deeds in her name coming, just before the invasion (called the Annihilation Wave) begins in earnest.

So now, after reading the first issue of Annihilation, I'm thinking that Heralds of Galactus will be based around:

Fantastic Four
Heralds of Galactus
Skrulls
Kree
Negative Zone
Nonaligned galore

Cool.

But you forgot one thing...

Wherever Reed Richards goes, Victor Von Doom will find him.

And wherever there's a Galactus, there's a Doom waiting to steal his mojo.

Yep, every comic book with Mr. Fantastic ever made has also had Dr. Doom.

Oh wait... :rolleyes:

Ok, I want to try an exercise.

The first person who can name a VIABLE, RECOGNIZEABLE, NON-ARMY, NON-DR. character for the Doom affiliation that has yet to see print gets a cookie.

Mephisto
Valeria Richards
His mother
Members of the F4

Haha Batshido, if you switch the d and t in your name you get a funny Japanese sounding word.

Valeria has been done. She started with the F4 affiliation, but her ability keys of being Doom.

The F4 are on Doom. CE took care of that.

Mephisto doesn't really belong on an affiliation composed of Doom and his underlings. Notice that there is no one on the team that hasn't been manipulated by Doom, not the other way around.

Doom's Mother has never done anything dynamic in the comics. She could be featured in a Plot Twist, but she doesn't have enough substance for a character.

I'm sorry, but the Doom affiliation doesn't have enough members to be re-featured. It's scraping the bottom of the barrel for Legacy as it is.

Mephisto - Arn't him and Doom not really on speaking terms because you know, he imprisoned Doom's mother in Hell ?

Valeria - Mebbe, but just because she was named by Doom does that mean she would have any sort of allegiance to him ?

His mother - Has she ever been shown doing anything worthwhile other than be Mephisto's prisoner ?

Members of the Fantastic four - When have the F4 ever sworn allegiance to Doom ? Sure, they've teamed up before to take on threats greater than all of them, but that's why there are Team Up cards ( *cough* Common Enemy *cough* ) . I can't ever see a Doom affiliated Mr. Fantastic - it makes no sense !

So no, there is not enough characters to make a whole new team based on Doom in my opinion. Doom doesn't have to be in everything the F4 is in ya know !

man you guys don`t read they already said on metagame that infinate crisis is the last set to feature all new team the rest of the sets will be one new team and the rest legacy

Not quite . Its been said that Infinite Crisis will be the last new set with four new teams - future sets will have at least one legacy team featured, but that could also mean one legacy team and 3 new teams or 2 legacy and 2 New or whatever. Legion of Superheroes will be 2 new, 2 Legacy ( LoS, Teen Titans, Darkseid's Elite and Legion of Superillains ) . Heralds could have one legacy team and 3 new teams : anything is possible.

[list=1][*]The statement you're thinking of is from an article in Inquest Magazine, not Metagame.[*] [*]Who's illiterate now?[/list=1]

Didn't Mephisto give Doom his sorcery powers?

F4 - When Reed pretended to be Doom, and when the F4 took over Latveria.

Valeria Richards - Isn't she Doom's familiar? Doom used her to beat up the F4 didn't she?

His mother - House of M.

Um, no, they hate each other. Doom learned sorcery from all the magical junk his mom left lying around after she died.

The other characters you mentioned are viable candidates for the Doom team affiliation, but all they amount to is a few set's worth of legacy content. Doom the team affiliation is spent for the time being.
