Great Comic Based Games (lemmy.today)

I'm seeing family over the holidays and they really enjoy comic book stuff and video games. I don't know much about comics and am looking for suggestions on classic comic book based games I can load on my RPi and bring over to play. All I'm aware of are some of the Marvel vs Capcom fighting games but maybe there are others. Any ideas?

man there was a generic superhero game I used to love where you could specify your powers and such specifically but I can't remember the name. it predates city of heroes and such and was before games were online from a central server. arggh I wish I could remember the name.

Maybe it'll come to you now that you're thinking about it

nope. I narrowed it down to early 2000 like 2001 or 2 or so. Im pretty sure these two geeky cs professors turned me onto it.

Freedom Force, maybe? I haven't played it but it's from around that time.
