Marvel has spent the last few weeks teasing the cadre of heroes picking sides in its upcoming event Civil War II: Electric Registration Boogaloo. But now, it looks like they’ve revealed the key players in the debate of “What did you learn after watching Minority Report for the first time?”

In Civil War II—an event happening this year that is not at all related to a certain movie starring Captain America coming out soon—a mysterious entity with the power to see the future (accurately, for once) will prevent a tragic disaster, splitting the heroes of the Marvel universe into two sides.
The side that watched Minority Report and went “Hey man, that pre-crime place had some pretty nifty ideas” will be led by Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, who will fight to use this new being to punish criminals before they can commit the crime they’re being punished for. As you can see in the image above, she is joined by:
Monica Rambeau
She-Hulk
Ant-Man
The Winter Soldier
Hawkeye
Blue Marvel
Medusa
Captain America (Steve Rogers-flavored)
The Vision
War Machine
Spider-Man
Meanwhile on the side that watched Minority Report and went “CAROL DID YOU EVEN WATCH ALL OF THIS MOVIE, JESUS” is Tony Stark, aka Iron Man, who thinks that the whole purpose of superheroes is to not randomly beat down and lock up people for things they’ve not done yet. He is joined by:
Black Widow
Deadpool
Captain America (Sam Wilson-flavored)
The Totally Awesome Hulk (aka, Amadeus Cho)
Hercules
Black Panther
Luke Cage
Thor (Jane Foster)
America Chavez
Star-Lord
Daredevil
Some of these choices are really weird. She-Hulk is Carol’s friend, sure, but I have absolutely no idea why, as an attorney, she’d be all about persecuting people before they’ve committed a crime. But hey, things were a bit weird the last time the words “Civil War” were bandied around at Marvel, too.
We’ll see these teams duke it out soon enough, when Civil War II: Bigger, Badder, and More Civil begins in May.
