So, I saw a rumor (well, wild speculation really) that one of the upcoming decks would be multiple heroes.
If that's true, I think it will be Miss Information's nemesis. Specifically, I think Miss Information's nemesis is a bunch of kid superheroes (or sidekicks)
I have a few reasons for thinking this:
1) Miss Information's nemesis symbols is a pair of brackets, which in math is used to denote a set.
2) Much of Miss Information's danger comes from the fact that the Freedom Five don't see her as a threat. I think children are more likely to catch on, even if the adult heroes don't take the kids' warnings seriously.
3) A lot of Miss Information's cards have very basic sounding threats (old lady in the street, cat in the tree). That sounds less like a job for Bunker, and more of a job for lil'turret (or, you know, whatever his kid version would be).
4) Of the various four-color superhero tropes we've seen so far, the kid sidekick or scrappy kid hero has been missing.
But this might be wishful thinking on my part, and really wanting to see a hero deck with Ennead-like mechanics.
I wonder how that'd work…a deck with multiple heroes. More people to get hit by stuff, I suppose…but more people to do damage? I suppose they'd have to have less hp in order to balance things out, just as the Ennead have much less health relative to all the other villains. If that were the case, I think a game versus Iron Legacy would be even shorter than usual, lol.
Hey, if there were some child heroes, maybe one of them would be Thiago (the Potential Sidekick from Spite's deck) - he'd seem an obvious choice, at least. Though from what I can tell, he's not a superhero but just a boy who dresses up like Legacy because he wants to be a superhero. Hopefully he's nothing like Buddy from "The Incredibles" ;).

I always forget that we actually know Potential Sidekick's name, since I always just call him Schroedinger Boy (he might be dead, might be alive, might be Wraith's sidekick, might be someone else's, etc).
As far as gedgeteer sidekicks who turn into future villains go, well, we do already have Unity…
Unity is more of a hero with minions, though. If you had a deck of multiple heroes...if they were like the Ennead, wouldn't that mean that one of them being defeated meant you could still carry on? If Unity goes, it doesn't matter how many Bots are in play - they all disappear. If you had multiple heroes in the same deck...presumably you'd be able to carry on until they were all knocked out. Would they each have their own Incapacitated powers, then, like the Ennead?
