Hasbro has released the packaging of the awesome new Mini Muggs Maximum Carnage set. It will be on sale at the New York Comic Con. It will also be available at the Hasbro Toy Shop. I’m down for a set, I love it!

Continuing to celebrate ladies who love Spidey.

If you’re new to Spider-Captions the goal is to write a funny caption to the picture in the comment section. Extra points for bringing the funny.

Tiiiiime is on my side, yes it is. Time is not on Spider-Man’s side, though.

If not, then stop wasting your time and go pick up Spidey’s latest game in console format. No wait! First take some time to read the latest review, if you don’t mind the spoilers, that is.

Platforms: Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS and 3DS

Story and Writing: I enjoy science fiction, but too much of it can make my head spin. Alternate dimensions and time travel can result in a convoluted story, but it’s something that Spider-Man has been associated with on numerous occasions. Beenox employed both of these devices in both their entries in the Spider-Man gaming franchise, but this time they chose to focus on just two alternate Spider-Men. I’m glad they trimmed the universes to two instead of the four they used in 2010’s Shattered Dimensions and I think that they have improved as a whole with their sophomore stab at Spidey. (more…)
