New emojis coming soon include a wider range of faces and skin colors, including bald heads. There will be more household objects, so the slide into a complete pictogram language is coming to pass. The new group includes 157 new emojis, bringing the total to 2,823. But the best ones are the new superheros and villains.
Perhaps to use when constructing narratives in conjunction with the above, there’s also goggles and a lab coat and a test tube, a potentially evil microbe, a mosquito (for sure evil), a raccoon (for Rocket; also: pure evil), a newly bald man (Lex Luthor), and an infinity symbol so you can stop typing out “Infinity War” all the damn time.
These images are all samples, meaning that they could be altered somewhat by the time they hit your phone, but chances are you’ll be seeing these emojis released in 2018.
