To try and help organize all the update info in one place, I copied and formatted my mega stage / character impression from Otakon onto the first page, in an early post I had there, only 1 or 2 below Kane's ultra-informative 1st post.
To continue relevance to modern post, people on NeoEmpire are talking to a guy who claims to "know a guy" close to SNKP, who confidently says the first silhouette is Rock Howard. He's standing with his arm to the side, with the tell-tale purple GEESEnergy seeping from his palm.
Of course, this is perfectly mixed with the news from the EVO panel, where the producer smiled, and mentioned that Garou characters are a possibility...
