They are obviously debut a new character, Thunder-Thighs McCullen. The first fat female super hero. When she runs and jumps her fat thigh smash together creating sub-sonic blasts. She struggles with her weight as is it slightly unhealthy, the oblivious societal image issue but her boy friend likes fatties and her power is based around her size. So it is tackling all of that, which is perfect for the view.
*sigh* You've obviously never seen Big Bertha of the Great Lakes Avengers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bertha_(comics) That is entirely possible, more so if it ties into a Squirrel Girl comic as well. Actually, I really wouldn't mind them announcing a Great Lakes Avengers reboot.

That being said, they have their fingers in marketing of every other fan base and media, dropping something on the View captures that hairline demographic of "people that watch the View and also knows about comics". It's an important marketing choice, you see..
