Marvel Heroes: Rumor Mill - New Heroes and Villains Coming?

According to Russian datamining site, Horadric.ru, it appears that some new heroes and villains will be heading into Marvel Heroes Online in the near future. This is all speculation, of course, but the information seems strong. Use Google's Chrome browser to see the site translated to English.
Our own Mike Bitton offered a couple of thoughts:
These guys have been pretty good at datamining new costumes coming to the game (one of 'em is coming out today) and it appears they possibly have datamined out upcoming unannounced characters, including two villains (Juggernaut and Moonstone). The latter bit is particularly interesting since you can actually fight Juggernaut in the game and, you know, villains!
Check out the site above to see what all the rumor is about.

They should have made 2 opposing factions, heroes vs. villians
GAME TIL YOU DIE!!!!
The villains part, that's interesting and all, but those "unannounced" characters are actually on their website and have been included in the Ultimate Pack that was on sale prior to launch. They're nothing new.
But... these other characters... man, this dev is really clueless. The game is a buggy mess with no real direction. They have done nothing but wave the nerf bat around and haven't made a statement about their direction...
Which is now obvious. Shove more stuff into the cash shop.
Juggernaut, Domino, X-23, Dr. Strange, Magik, and Moonstone are announced on their website? You'll have to show me where.
I'm going off of the picture shown here. They mentioned new characters and such but posted an old picture... which for some reason, is also included on the Horadric site as well. Bit of confusion on that part, I guess.
really looking forward to the villains as they are and will allways be more fun to play.
hoping i can play as hobgoblin or green goblin some day.
Have to agree. Deadpool is tons of fun to play.
Ladies and gentlemen! Thee Doctor is in!
That is all.
I want psylocke and rogue
were are they
both character models are already in game ( they're NPCs in xaviers school ) so it's only a matter of time. I don't think any of the heroes "announced" are a big surprise to people who play the game....you've been able to select them as forum avatars for about 6 months now :P Since every other forum avatar is a playable character...1+1=2
This game needs a serious amount of content added far more than it needs more heroes. What is the point of having more heroes when it only has about 15 hours of content.
Player retention will not be achieved by only offering new heroes to replay the same very small amount of content over and over again.
I'll check back in a couple years to see if they added more content. Until then I could give a **** about more heroes.
When are they going to add customized heroes like CoH had?
Marvel Heroes is a giant leap backwards by only offering non-customized player models. Being able to customize a character is one of the bare minimum requirements for a MMORPG to be even remotely worth looking at. Will not pay, will not play.
