April is shaping up to be an exhilarating month for Marvel Contest of Champions (MCOC) players with the introduction of exciting new content, including the much-anticipated champion, Spider-Woman. Jessica Drew, also known as Spider-Woman, has an intriguing backstory that adds depth to her character. Born near a uranium mine, Jessica was exposed to the hazardous material as a child, leading to severe illness. Her father, a brilliant geneticist, attempted to save her life by injecting her with a serum derived from spider DNA. After a long recovery, Jessica not only overcame the adverse effects but also gained extraordinary spider-like abilities, eventually embracing her identity as Spider-Woman. Players can look forward to adding her to their roster starting April 17th.
Before Spider-Woman makes her entrance, another champion, Lumatrix, will join the fray on April 9th. Known as one of the most lethal assassins created by the Founders, Lumatrix is designed for stealth and assassination, utilizing dazzling light-based powers to infiltrate and eliminate targets.
