   More balanced than the original game, but still leads to some bad combos. Plays quicker than the original, which is a plus. I enjoy the marvel theme, so I’d def prefer this one.

   It's a fun one! I love that it still has some unique plays and it didn't come with additional anchors like munchkin or chulu had. This may be one of the most straight forward sets. I think if I was introducing a friend to smash up I would start right here, Easy to understand cards. Theme of each team and their play style seems to be matching up well. In general its a little odd because this is like smash up selling out. Selling out isn't really a problem, I think it really gains something with having a premade expansive universe; being comics as they are already leand themselves to smashing up aka crossovers; themes and styles are predetermined.....it goes on BUT I feel like smash up has so long been building on their own flavor of parody that this doesn't feel like the same flavor is there. It could have used 2 more factions to try to even out the balance. The art is a bit all over the place, albeit not as bad as it could be but still a bit uneven. marvel fans will get more out of this than non-marvel fans. Not too bad though that a smash up fan is required to like marvel to like this set. Im sure plenty more comic/marvel related packs are being negotiated. If they keep being this good though I don't mind too much. Smash up fan? get it new to smash up? get it think this is just a cash grab? Your right, but its still good

   Great new title for the Smash Up line! I think the Marvel universe fits in perfectly with the mechanics of this game and I think this is a great partnership between The Op and AEG! If you are a fan of Marvel or Smash Up then this would be a no-brainer.
