I could see comics hinting at things yet to come, just as comics and novels released before 2 introduced characters like Tychus, Kate, and Valerian. These new books introduce truckloads of potential new game characters that SC3 will need since more then half of the original cast is dead. Colin Phash could become a new Ghost character, and seeing as he can split his mind, memory, conscience, identity and soul from his body into an astral projection, this makes him an almost literal ghost.

Gestalt Zero could have an interesting plot as he's a Terran/Protoss hybrid. Given the nature of the other hybrids of Starcraft, he has to show the galaxy that a hybrid can be a decent person. Plus, living with the Protoss could give him an interesting personality.

Lassatar, a Dark Templar who had very low opinions of humanity until he befriended a Terran child might be a good test subject for merging the 4 Protoss cultures together into something greater then before.

Ruom is an infested Protoss who now lives with the Zerg. Given that Zagara has kept the Zerg pacified, he might be a good subject to see the new Zerg culture and how it works if merged with Protoss culture.

Speaking of Zerg, any new Zerg character could be interesting since more Zerg are gaining intelligence and free will. How about a Zergling or Hydralisk who can speak English and thinks that the Zerg should live more in balance with nature, and only take arms when in direct danger. Additionally, if the more and more Zerg gain enough intelligence to no longer be a faction of mindless monsters, they might evolve a more sophisticated culture. Me personally, I'd give them a sort of spiritualistic/animism culture. The Overmind and Sarah Kerrigan are worshiped as ancestor spirits and the Xel'maga are also given reverence. They also have adopted some traits of Primal Zerg as they believe that only the most evolved Zerg should rule.
