Your recent answer to Jackalopespam's Invulnerability's question prompts me to ask a question about the SR Molecule Man: Cheeseburger Eater from Secret Wars, who's text reads…
While Molecule Man is active, your spidey friend characters cost 1 less to field, cost 1 less to purchase, and return to the field Zone after they deal combat damage to your opponent.
Just for clarity, while a player has Molecule Man active, any of that players spidey friend characters that go unblocked and deal combat damage to the opponent would return to the field at level one because they would have to first pass through out of play (unrolled state), correct? Or does this ability circumvent out of play and they would return to the field on the same level they were on when they went unblocked?
What about if you were to give those dice overcrush with something like Thrown Car and they were KO'd but did combat damage because of the overcrush? I'm assuming that would fall under the Invulnerability ruling guidance and return them to the field at level 1 because they would first pass through an unrolled state in the prep area? Or again, would Molecule Man's ability circumvent them from ever moving to the Prep Area?
And just for completeness, say a spidey friend character goes through unblocked but has 0 attack, would that count as dealing combat damage? If no, would it return to the field?
Thanks in advance.
