Hasbro: Marvel Universe Comic Packs Update

You may recall from this year's Hasbro Marvel Universe interview that Hasbro's Marvel Universe Comic Packs series will now be switching to a "Greatest Battles" theme. This allows for a greater variety of characters from across the Marvel timeline, and today word has come out of 4 new sets:
Deadpool & Taskmaster
Power Man & Iron Fist
Spider-Man & Captain Britain
Wolverine & Silver Samurai
While the covers shown as the top of this story are only speculative, since none of this is official yet (although showing up in the Walmart computer is a GOOD tip!), here's hoping that these are the comics that inspired the sets.
While both characters have been made before, having a classic Power Man with puffy yellow shirt and Iron Fist with high YELLOW collar is just too cool for words!
While Wolverine & Silver Samurai have clashed many times over the years, and we really don't need another brown costume Wolverine, when it comes to "Greatest Battles", Uncanny X-Men #173 is surely the DEFINITION of that!
2011 is shaping up to be a very, very good year....!
Thanks to Rick Blood for the scoop, who found this post at MarvelousNews.com revealing these sets. |
