    Btw, why does he need a helmet? Galactus‘ heralds don’t need one and undead don’t need air

    Because fire needs oxygen, so his head would extinguish and people would likely be significantly less intimidated by him. Or maybe the fire needs to be burning to feed his powers?

    Note: I actually know nothing about this character, but the fire seems important to him.

    Cosmic Ghost Rider is (apparently) Frank Castle from another dimension, with Ghost Rider and a Galactus Herald's powers, and Deadpool's personality.

    This is a comics thing, not some original MPQ creation. He's in MPQ because he's in the new Cosmic Invasion game.

    If I burn my copy of Thanos Vol 2 #13 and sacrifice my Marvel Legends Figure to an unnamed shadowy figure will I magically be granted 10 covers?

    Also…will we be able to swap covers around the 6 star character when we get it to 13?

    Someone on Discord mentioned you cannot re-spec a 6 once you have 13 covers. But to be fair, the context was a bit of a game of telephone.

    I was kinda thinking that might be the case. Hate the idea of locking in permanently (not something to really worry about for a long long time for me, but was just curious).

    I wonder if they'll change this at some point. I don't think anybody has a legit 13 cover 6* right now, so maybe they just haven't enabled it yet?

    Almost. There is someone with a 3/3/5 Galactus

    Hope so, hope so

    In the comic Castle dies in a battle with Thanos who is killing everyone on earth. Mephisto turns him into a Ghost Rider and sends him back to earth where everyone is dead. Many many years later Galactus shows up and makes him a herald to fight Thanos.

    He only wears the helmet when traveling through space and I assume …. Idk. Does a Ghost Rider breathe? Probably.

    Look, it’s cool looking, ok? Plus you know he’s not a normal old Earthbound Ghost Rider immediately.

    It's not mandatory for him to wear the helmet, it's just that, well,...without it...he's shy.

    Is it only me or his abilities seem more like a 5*? And i'm sorry to say that, but the graphic design is awful, to say the least. Still looking forward to Cosmic Spider the most - looks cool, and seem to be the most fun to play. I don't care this ugly Punisher/GR, and Galactus will have a synergy.

    His gun does look a bit like a sex toy though. I guess maybe that's why he also has the chains? And also why he is a "punisher".

    IMO CGR is probably one of the least sexy Marvel characters….

    He kind of reminds me of an alt-colour Minion from Megamind.

    Need more characters that make cosmic tiles and have cosmic tile interaction. I am a BIG fan of this kit.

    Devs, if you wanna change Silver Surfer, Nova (Frankie), and Aunt May into cosmic tile character, PLEASE DO SO! I will be ecstatic.
