Well, if one of these things is not true, it could be the statement that one of these things is not true, and it could be the statement that Lord_Recluse loves being evil.
I've read the 4 AT thing as well, and I think that's a serious can o' worms due to the fact that Villains will then be tighter ATs than Heroes, thus leading to a whole new problem.
As far as Killer Mimes go, think about it, we Heroes run around cities stopping crime. What would villains do? Run around cities causing mayhem, but it must be in a fun manner. Who are we going to run into and yet still maintain fun-factor?
1. Mimes, damn annoying, nobody likes them.
2. Lawyers, can you imagine saving some citizen from being served legal papers?
3. Skaters, their just punk wannabes who need to be taken down.
4. Religious Right, they are just annoying propheteers who also happen to be profiteers.
5. Telemarketers, need I say more?
Basically, take any really annoying group that you would like to pummel, put them in CoV, and you have instant success without any of the stigma of games like Grand Theft Auto and such. This will still be a game based on comic books.
i think the mime thing is true. mimes are evil, plus they're french, and aren't we supposed to hate the french. just kidding 
My wife will track them down, she runs The Mimenologist on Justice.

So if the killer mimes all waited hidden in a meadow to ambush someone it'd be a mime field right?

For that, you should be lowered head-first into a kindergarden classroom after having dispensed speed-laced coolaid and nerf bats to all the little tikes!

damn, where's my backup?
People sometimes tell me I'm both pessimistic and paranoid but I think that's just because all you optimists are out to get me.
it's a trick question! That monster! "Killer Mimes" is not a statement at all, but an arbitrary phrase. There's no predjucate (sp? right word, even?), only a subject. there's nothing there to quantify the Killer Mimes, so it is at once impossible for it to be true or false. It's an artificial statement that has no meaning beyond describing a subject. that is the untrue statement, but it doesn't MEAN anything! AAAGH!
The first one is false. He's called the Faceripper, not Facemaker.
Anyone take into account the fact that he posted on April 1st? April Fools Day?
So now we can get the brand new Mime Control power set?

Deeeevious. He didn't say -how- much of the statement was untrue.
Of course, this means killer mimes will be in CoV. Heroes will battle them.
Mime and Punishment will ensue. In fact, it already has.
Bonus if Lord Recluse manages to shoehorn any PS238 in-jokes into CoV, though.

Anyway, it's the thing about him luving to be evil. He even italicized it for us!
Of cousre his staement that one of these may not be true could also be false as well as his I love being evil statement. Hmmmmm

Not true. There's four. I asked in person.

Unless it changed.
Lol, I think you guys are over thinking it. The mimes are an obvious lie. How can you fight a mime anyway? Everything they do is pretend!

or...you could be underthinking.....Im hoping for mimes...they could be like a force field def but with more attacks
Because the devs would really rather reveal that villains have to go into hero zones and establishments to change their costumes and that villain ATs will really be 4 instead of 5 instead of revealing that they aren't going to make you fight people in invisible boxes...
I'm sorry, I don't buy, "It's so stupid it MUST be true!"
you guys are all wrong! you are missing teh obvious, killer mines= evil phantom army and evil phantasms and the like.
I'm pretty sure there will be at LEAST 5 ATs in CoV he just didn't say which kinds
I think the part about bieng no Icon in CoV territory is a lie of course there will be one, just an evil version thats only accessable by going into a dark alley, popping into the sewers until you get to a set of stairs that leads to an abandoned warehouse door where there is a dim light flickering above it and a diffuse white light comes out of the bottom

No, we just change their name to "freedom mimes." But since I live mostly on the Justice server, I guess I won't see them.
Maybe...maybe...
KILLER MIMES ARE THE MYSTERIOUS 5 AT!!]
That would R0x0r my B0x0rs.
The fifth archetype for CoV is... dun dun DUNNN!
Incarnate. That's right, I said it.
You truely are evil, Recluse.
