Super Hero Squad Wave 20 Pictures
Hasbro has forwarded official pictures of Super Hero Squad Wave 20 (Deadpool and Taskmaster, Spider-Man and Ronan, and Wolverine and Juggernaut), along with Mystique and the Team X Wolverine from Marvel Universe Wave 10, and so they are currently up in the Hasbro gallery. Never before have we seen so many guns, swords and otherwise fine weapons of destruction in such a small sample of toys! It’s like the Blade/Punisher 2-pack all over again!
More Super Hero Squad Variant Covers
Last year Marvel put out a variety of variant covers for their mainstream books featuring Super Hero Squad Show recreations of classic cover moments and it looks like this year they’re doing it again with:
So while the choice of books may be… uhm… interesting (Namor versus underwater vampires? Daredevil, which is in the middle of a major crossover where he and his ninja cohorts murder, abduct and engage the dark arts in soul-bending resurrections), presumably the covers, like last years’, also double as the title cards for the Super Hero Squad Show episodes. The covers shown all seem to coincide with what we already know about the upcoming season, including Namor’s Invaders cover featuring Bucky, Torch and Toro; Iron Man’s cover with Nebula and Annihilus; Daredevil’s Daredevil-less cover where Scarlet Witch faces down Thanos; and the Avengers cover featuring Hercules.
Super Hero Squad Collector’s Pack 4 Released
Bigredmachine17 reports that the Super Hero Squad Collector’s Pack 4, featuring Loki, Thor, Enchantress, Iron Man, Hulk and the “savage Frost Giant” is out in the wild.

Marvel and DC DVD Round-Up!
Both Marvel and DC are hitting DVD shelves hard with new and upcoming releases so we thought we’d do a little round-up of today’s news.
First off, TV Shows on DVD has the box art for the Super Hero Squad Show second volume DVD, coming out on November 9, 2010. Target shoppers know that Target has an in-store exclusive set out right now with the complete first 13 episodes of the series so that might save you some money in the long run.
Later in November, November 30th to be exact, you can pick up the Iron Man Extremis motion comic from Marvel Knights Animation and Shout! Factory.
If motion comics are your thing, The Trades has a DVD review of the Astonishing X-Men: Gifted, featuring the initial Breakworld storyline from Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men run. September 30th is the release date for that motion comic.
If you don’t feel like waiting, you can grab Batman: Brave and the Bold Season 1, volume 1, collecting the first 13 episodes on 2 DVDs and released today.
And of course, you can also complete your collection of Wolverine and the X-Men (assuming you didn’t hold out for a US release of the season set, or import one from Canada) with volume 6, also released today.
As always, head on over to the message board to discuss.

Super Hero Squad Season 1 on DVD. In Canada.
Canadians were the first to get the complete Wolverine and the X-Men animated series, and now they’re the first to get the complete Super Hero Squad Season 1 which, according to TVShows on DVD will be out on September 28 for $29.98 Canadian. Dear the US: Please stop buying volume 1 through Eleventy of a series because it only encourages rights holders to release a handful of episodes on DVD at a time, and that sucks.
