2008 - Year of Marvel

• Game features the most famous characters in the Marvel Universe, especially those that have been highlighted in movies in the last 5 years.

• It has very simple game play that is enjoyable for young kids and adults alike.

• The cards will be visually stunning and will look more like trading cards than TCG cards.

• The game is fundamentally about heroes fighting each other - the way to win the game is to beat up all of your opponent’s guys, there’s no "life total" or "combo deck".

• Its a quick and fun game - no game involves pondering a million decision - the first instinct is probably your best.

Got me excited for a second there tat. I thought Marvel was bringing back their Collecor's Club with Neca. They'd do statues for $35 & busts for $20. Awesome sculpts for the price but generic packing to keep down the cost. Loved that line.

Yeah and they just announced Marvel Masterpiece 3. I'm afraid Marvel is pumping out to many to fast.

I'm more hyped for the Batman Archives coming out in the early summer.

I heard rumor of it, but no confirmation from UD until now. But I knew it wouldn't be long. Sounds good.

Not much of a DC fan. Probably only buy a box, or just a set.
