"You call that science?" - Mockingbird, apparently
In this episode of Winning Hand, the pod crew kicks off celebrations for Women's History Month by discussing the character Mockingbird from Marvel Champions. We explore her history, powers, and the thematic elements of her (core set) card. The conversation includes a spotlight on content creator Astrodar, trivia about Mockingbird, and a detailed analysis of her card's mechanics and impact in the game. Does Boomguy read comics? Not likely.
