This is an unusual card to add to the solo hero repertoire., allowing a defense-heavy character to dish out damage while thwarting.
With the right characters (Spider-Man, Ghost Spider, Nightcrawler, Silk etc.) this is five damage and five thwarting with an Armored Vest and Innate Reflexes. Not sure on the cost curve for cross ability effects, but 5/5 for 3 feels pretty solid.
In multiplayer, this would likely be even more effective, as your partner could field a range of allies handling numerous contingencies while allowing you to be broadly effective for minimal cost.
