I got my father-in-law for the family secret Santa this year. He's super into Marvel/comics and I was thinking of getting him a marvel/superhero themed board game he can play with the family. Google returned a bunch of different options for Marvel themed games, but I can't tell which are good or bad.

What games would you recommend for gifting?

The Unmatched Game System is on a lot of top lists recently and they have a set of Marvel-themed sets, with more planned I believe:

Personally, I love the game. I've had good experiences with gamers and non-gamers alike. I was originally concerned that the Marvel expansions would be subpar, relying on the IP, but, honestly, they have some of my favourite character mechanics.
