Awesome Superheroes

LEGO gives the world’s greatest minifig superheroes a game of their own. We don’t know much about the game yet, but we’ve heard it involves platforms and puzzles. Coming to all major consoles and handhelds this Fall.

The god of thunder returns to Earth to protect it from a new threat. But the enemy’s strength forces Thor to seek help from the most unlikely source. Where are the Avengers when you need them?

Look, up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a guy with a vacuum cleaner! The title says it all, as this guy blows himself up inside of his inflatable Superman costume. His archenemy must be named Pinhead. Animated .gif here.

It seems that Kal-El is as antisocial as Clark Kent in Man of Steel. But when General Zod and his army threaten Earth, Supes is forced to come out of his shell. And uppercut some Kryptonian fools to the stratosphere.

Superheroes can have some pretty useful powers, like x-ray vision, flight, brute strength, and invisibility. Mr Weebl introduces us to some of the other, lesser-known superhero powers.

(NSFW: Language) Kick-Ass is ripped, Col. Stars and Stripes thinks crime fighting is fun and just when Hit Girl thought she was out, they pull her back in in the new trailer for Kick-Ass 2.

If six seconds wasn’t enough for you, here’s the first full trailer for The Wolverine, as Logan heads to Japan and gets more than he bargains for as a mere mortal (with adamantium claws.)

(NSFW: Language) Jim Carrey looks beefed up as Colonel Stars and Stripes in Kick-Ass 2, but is it enough for him and the self-made crusaders to battle against a reinvented Red Mist? We shall see.

In the latest trailer for his upcoming game, the Merc with a Mouth describes the trailer itself. He’s starting to sound like a slightly cooler albeit way more insane version of Duke Nukem.

The Power Pose Mark XLII is an 11.8″ tall 1:6 scale replica of Tony Stark’s armor in Iron Man 3. It has LED light-up parts, semi-articulate waist and neck and interchangeable thigh parts.

The latest trailer gives us a longer look at the torment caused by Ben Kingsley’s uber-villain, The Mandarin, and the continuing trend towards darkness in this Summer’s biggest blockbusters.

The wise and brave demigoddess kicks Nazi butt in this Jesse V. Johnson’s fan trailer starring Nina Bergman. Nina’s got some cool moves, but we still wish she had a more sensible costume.

Superman has been with us for 75 years, and he’s had a different look for almost every one of them. See 170 different Men of Steel in this massive infographic courtesy of SupermanHomepage.

While we won’t have to wait too long to see Man of Steel, those who prefer graphic novels will want to check out this May 7 digital release based on the Geoff Johns/Gary Frank classic Superman: Brainiac.

Tony Stark loses his suits, The Iron Patriot stares him down and the Mandarin speaks in the Super Bowl trailer for Iron Man 3. But not before Robert Downey Jr. gives you a literal extended look.

This trailer presents the plot of the upcoming DC fighting game Injustice: Gods Among Us: what if the good guys got tired of putting up with humanity’s flaws and started ruling with an iron fist?

We’re sure hoping that Zack Snyder’s Superman reboot is as dark and epic as it looks from this dramatic trailer. One can only hope this is The Dark Knight of Superman. (Thanks Larry!)

The debut trailer for Iron Man 3 is filled with mystery, tragedy and eye candy. Get a glimpse of Tony’s new enemies and of course his new armor. Geeks will be pausing this one frame-by-frame.

Watch the flashy Avenger at his flashiest in this compilation of Tony Stark suiting up to – and suiting down from – his Iron Man form. The clunky junkyard armor is missing though.

An early tease for Zack Snyder’s 2013 reboot of Superman, with what looks to be a far less cartoony, more serious take on the Man of Steel. Stars Brit Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman.

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One includes The Avengers, Capt. America, Thor, Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and The Incredible Hulk, plus a replica of Nick Fury’s briefcase and the Tesseract.

Marvel unveiled Tony Stark’s new armor for the upcoming movie Iron Man 3 at the San Diego Comic-Con. Too bad these photos were taken by Shellhead’s latest nemesis, Off-Center Man.
