Bullshit, they could have used Quasar, Starlord, Gamora (then there would have been a chick, no less), Drax. Hell, I would have taken Groot over fucking Rocket Raccoon.
Though, that being said, now that I know Nova is Rider and not Frankie, the choices aren't as bad as my initial reaction made it seem. (except for Rocket Fucking Raccoon).
Ghost RIder: I don't care for Ghost Rider, but he's got a flaming skull and a motorcycle, which means he has thousands of fans. He is a sort of populat/cult character so, whatever, I'm fine with that.
Dr. Strange: as I said before, he is awesome. First off, they've used his villains for like three or four games now, it's about time he made an appearance. I look forward trying out the former (and hopefully, once again, future) Sorcerer Supreme.
Nova: I've actually always really enjoyed the Nova character and the way they developed him and made him an important/prominent character in annihilation was *awesome*. Plus, his costume redesign is sick.
Iron Fist: I actually enjoy Iron Fist as a character, I think I only got disappointed because his power-set/abilities are bland and he's just going to be another rushdown character who will probably have no interesting concepts. (prove me wrong, Capcom)
Hawkeye: Like I said, if I'd heard Hawkeye on the initial MvC3 roster, I'd have been hype. I love Hawkeye. The thing is, we *have* Taskmaster, and I thought the whole point of characters like Taskmaster and Super-Skrull is it allows, in a manner, capcom to cram more characters into limited slots. Super-Skrull gave us the whole FF in one character slot. There's no reason to put Taskmaster in the game, give him all of hawkeyes abilities, and then put Hawkeye in.
I think my real disappointment comes from being a fanboy and hoping to see those character slots filled a little differently. And trust me, I get that certain characters are thrown in for cross marketing purposes and I understand that, I just think they could have done both. If I had to choose 6 marvel characters to add to MvC3 it'd look something like this
1. Dr. Strange
2. The Sentry
3. Mimic (I don't care if they used 616 or Exiles mimic, both would be cool and, like super-skrull, would be a way to cram several characters in one slot. Regular mimic would add the entire orignal X-Men roster to the game, exiles mimic would add cyclops, colossus and northstar)
4.Quasar (To push the "cosmic" Marvel sub-brand. I like Nova more, but Quasar I think would be a more interesting FG character, plus he'd fill the "obscure" quota)
5. Black Panther
6. Ms. Marvel

Lot of changes to current content confirmed...I'm actually hype and I really didn't think I would be. Roster is now 50 and it seems we are going to get reasonable content with all the tweeks. The tiers are going to go all over the place from what they are now as some of the nerfs are sounding good and some of the added moves seem really neat...I may use Ryu over akuma now. I just hope we see less 1 combo kills now

Good thing I didn't end up buying the first one. *rubs hands together, evily*
Shame we couldn't squeeze another x-man in there. Psylocke? Gambit? Rogue? All woulda made great fighters.
