No comics-related skins?
Will all skins be non-comics ones? I would like to see some stuff from actual comics and not some random skins that doesn't even fit the theme or the character.

Edit: The message was about the skins that are BEING RELEASED/NEW SKINS. I can see that there are skins from comics in the store.

Same, I've seen a lot of mock-ups online of what they could look like and all I see is literal £$'s

I mean, they can do skins from animated stuff as well. Would LOVE to have an 94' Animated Spider-Man Venom skin!
It's going to be a mixed bag. Battle Pass seems to be adding more comic-accurate skins (and possibly on-release skins if there are options for it) along with some custom skins and re-colors like blue Peni, but for standard releases they look to be custom.

When you look at a skin, under its text description you can see where it's sourced from. It'll either give its first appearance in the comics or if it's a Marvel Rivals exclusive.

it would be fine to obtain the punisher classic outfit 1974
or even other skin variants like Rachel Alves from punisher 2011 by completing a challenge event

I know. All battle-pass skins are from MR (except for Magneto (which is not very accuraty but it's alright) and Loki (I think)).

we will get 80% slops skins(aka chinese/non marvel themed versions) 15 gooner(u saw that already) and only 5% og comic

u might say that im wrong but the truth is once they release comics accurate skins they cant sell slops(aka chinese/non marvel themed versions because why? why would u care on some fanmade suit for character when u can have comic accurate suit? what the reason for u to buy slop skins? YES, ZERO) and most players will expect them to continue make comic skins

this is why i dont recommend u to expect something good from this unoptimized mobile cash grab chinese slop

Yeah, I think, every player who read comics has some skin they would like to have.
I'm more a DC guy, all I read from Marvel was Ultimate Spider-Man (2000).

Yeah, I think, you might be right! But we have some comics skins already - hope dies last I guess.

There are some though. Psylocke, Magneto, Hela have their classic outfits available in store. Some others have outfits from relatively modern comics like Squirrel Girl or Iron Man.
It's 100% not true and dishonest to say that there are no such stuff.

Maybe, I worded it poorly. I was talking about the new skins that are coming out. So far - only event-themed or made especially for MR.

Couldn't care less about that slop. As long as there is at least one accurate outfit for each hero, I'm fine.

There are comics skins in the game. The very popular Psylocke skin everyone uses is vintage 90s Jim Lee. Scarlet Witch and Majik's default skins are comic skins.

So while there are heroes who don't have comics skins (like Namor for instance), they certainly do exist in this game.
Invisible Woman's Malice skin is pretty close to Malice's look from the comics. It's a little toned down, but not much.
Iron Man's Endgame skin is pretty much his classic look. Or at least as close to it as this game's got. Even Iron Man's default isn't as close as the Endgame one (default's helmet is too..smooth.)

Of the 103 skins currently available to acquire, 42 are original skins, 14 are MCU skins, and 47 are comics skins, making comic skins the majority. So if you can't see any actual comic skins, you may need to turn on your monitor.
