'''Marvel Super Heroes''' is the [[Spiritual Successor]] of ''[[X Men Children of the Atom (Video Game)|X Men Children of the Atom]]''. It was released in 1995.
 
The roster retained Wolverine, Psylocke, Juggernaut, and Magneto, from the previous game, and was diversified with the additions of [[Captain America]], [[Spider-Man (Comic Book)|Spider-Man]], [[Iron Man]], [[The Incredible Hulk (Comic Book)|The Incredible Hulk]], [[Ghost Rider|Black]][[Daredevil|heart]], and Shuma-Gorath (A [[Doctor Strange]]/[[Kull The Conqueror]] villain [[Adaptation Displacement|more people know about from these games than the comics]]).
 
The game was based (loosely) on the ''[[Infinity Gauntlet]]'' storyline, and featured the Gems as power-ups that could be gained and used in battle. Each Gem had a different default ability, while each character had an affinity for a certain gem that would make them even stronger when they used it. After fighting the other heroes and villains for the Gems, the player faced down [[Dr. Doom]], before trying to get the final gem from [[Thanos]].
 
It was followed in 1996 with '''[[X-Men vs. Street Fighter (Video Game)|X-Men vs. Street Fighter]]'''.

== This game shows examples of: ==
Line 17:
* [[Big Bad]]: [[Thanos]].
** [[The Dragon]]: [[Doctor Doom]].
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: A fighting game, so not surprising. Capcom had even more fun with this trope than they did in [[X Men Children of the Atom (Video Game)|X Men Children of the Atom]].
** '''''[[Captain America|FINAL JUSTICE!]]'''''
** '''''[[Incredible Hulk|GAMMA CRUSH!]]'''''
Line 31:
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: Almost literally, with [[Eldritch Abomination|Shuma-Gorath]].
* [[Elephant Graveyard]]: Shuma-Gorath's pre-historic stage features several massive skulls and bones, one of which appearing to be a Triceratops.
* [[Fire, Ice, Lightning]]: Blackheart uses all three of these, although [[Playing Withwith Fire|fire]] by far the most and [[An Ice Person|ice]] not much at all.
* [[Fragile Speedster]]: Wolverine and Psylocke.
* [[Glass Cannon]]: Blackheart is surprisingly fast and strong for a demon of his size, but he's actually pretty weak defensively. Spider-Man's health is also very low but he's more than fast and powerful enough to get the job done.
* [[Genius Bruiser]]: The Hulk, where he's in the guise of the Merged Hulk/Professor persona. (remember, The Green Scar from ''Planet Hulk'' and ''[[World War Hulk]]'' had yet to be created at the time)
* [[Guest Fighter]]: [[Darkstalkers (Video Game)|Anita]], the [[Creepy Child]] that follows Donovan, as a [[Secret Character]].
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]:
** Cathal J. Dodd reprises again the role of [[Wolverine]] from [[X-Men (Animationanimation)|the hit 90's cartoon]].
** Catherine Disher, voices Psylocke and does the same.
* [[Life Drain]]: Used by Shuma-Gorath in one of his normal throws. Also by Thanos in his Soul Gem infinity combo.
