Ok, Lets see.

It revolves around Tracer and Winston
Page two has Mei, Zarya and D.va on TV.
Page six features a poster for Lucio suggesting he's performing or preparing for a concert.
pages nine plus ten show:
Genji and Zenyatta together
Pharah with either her father or a BF
Junkrat and Roadhog and an amusement park
Torbjorn and Reinhardt with torb's wife, kids and Brigitte
Hanzo somewhere
McCree and Sombra in a bar
Widowmaker at her husband's grave
Ana and Soldier 76 hanging out
Reaper lurking
Mercy presumably performing humanitarian duties

About the only characters I didn't notice at least being referred to were Symmetra and Bastion. Did anyone else spot them, or where they not there?

Nup. But we all know that those damn dirty omnics don't have the right to celebrate Christmas anyway. :p

On a separate side note, the panel that shows Pharah eating out with whoever, the TV screen shows a Canadian flag. So...Canadian hero confirmed? And I'd always assumed that Widowmaker is, as a personality, completely separate from Amelie Lacroix, so I'm surprised to see her visiting Gerard's grave.

Update: sharper eyes than mine have spotted symmetra, and arguably bastion.

On page 7, symmetra appears on the cover of a magazine on tracers coffee table, and in the Torbjorn/Reinhardt spread there's a newspaper on the floor which features a figure who looks like it could be bastion.

There are hints in-game that suggest he was more to her than just That One Guy I Killed.

One of her dialogues has Ana say, "Gerard was a fool to trust you," to which Widow replies, "You know nothing about him." Sometimes she says, "Ahh... Gerard," to herself in a wistful sort of way.

There's no mystery as to who Gerard is, but that's my point. If Amelie's personality was altered to the point of Widowmaker being a separate individual for all intents and purposes, why is Widowmaker visiting his grave. Either the Amelie personality is surfacing, or there isn't as much distinction between the two as I thought.

I think the point is that Amelie Lacroix's real personality is still in there somewhere. I guess whether it's surfacing now or just never went away is up for debate.
