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:

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 Show Toys at Burger King
The next big Burger King promotion is… Super Hero Squad Show toys! Four Super Hero Squad Show related Burger King kids meal toys are out there, consisting of Shield Flying Captain America, Gamma Glow Hulk, Real Scene Silver Surfer, Iron Man’s Light-Up Unibeam. They’re not “real” figures, and the Unibeam doesn’t actually have any figure at all, but for collectors of all the wild Super Hero Squad miscellaneous merchandise (and of course, both kids and collectors alike) it might be a great addition.
