Anyone else notice that the newspaper article about the new villain, the lead villain in City of Villains, the spider guy, is titled "A Shadow of the Past". The article said it was a forshadow of things to come. My theory, issue 3 will be the update which allows us heroes to play with CoV players and will more than likely come out shortly before release of CoV, perhaps a month or two as a sort of teaser for CoV. Also I believe beta CoV players will be able to play against us on the test server. The CoV will go live, with update 4, or maybe just a large patch which will connect us both, but more than likely update 4 as I forsee them adding new kinds of missions (ei pvp missions) and probably a few more teaser bits for those of us who haven't purchased CoV.
Just what I would do anyway, but my name assumptions stand.

Not a chance, imho. CoV is too far off and Issue 3 is too close. I think someone just got a bit too enthralled with the "Shadows of the Past" phrase.
