Marvel is currently riding on an entertainment industry high, what with all of the mega-blockbuster superhero films coming out and storming the theaters with high-quality tales of the super-powered.

Now that Insomniac Games' Marvel's Spider-Man is tearing up the sales charts, one must imagine that other studios are looking over the super hero masterwork and thinking to themselves that they could pull off something similar with another hero of choice.

Insomniac's new game may only let you control a single Marvel hero, but he exists within a much larger universe after all.
