Hey guys!  I found this on an old forum I used to frequent where we discussed Marvel card games.  Just thought I'd share some of my 'thematic' decks. These are meant to be fun decks played against other theme decks, not tournament dominating monsters.  Take what you like!

You're welcome!  Not sure why you never considered Crystal - she married Quicksilver and then had a baby with him.  Part of the family, at least for a time.  ;)

Fun thematic decks. Coincidentally enough I also have a Magneto & Family deck that includes Crystal. Could Polaris also work? Wasn't she thought of as Magneto's daughter at some point?

Mojo 6-3-1-6 (16)
Blob 4-5-6-1 (16)
Kingpin 2-4-5-6 (17)
Galactus? 8-8-8-8 (27) can't find any other fatties, he would probably weigh the most besides these guys in the universe?
