Unless you've run out of good rpg hack 'n' slashes, don't bother.
I'm a big comic book fan and my collection consists of about 900 right now, so when I got this game I was so excited. I thought I was going to make my own team of my favorite super heroes with their own customized skills and costumes. In a lot of ways I got my wish, but the game was dragged down by less than average gameplay and awful graphics that just took away the the fun. At first you are impressed with the game when you see the opening cinematic, It has amazing action pretty good voice acting and beautiful cgi animations, it looks like you're watching something from Pixar (The makers of movies like Wall-e and The incredibles). Sadly there are only a couple of these cinematics and they're the only real strong point of the game. Once the cinematic is done you are immediately disappointed. The gameplay is basically what you'd expect, a slow strong attack, a faster but less powerful attack, and a grab move. When you've grabbed a character you have the option to hold them there while you beat them senseless, or you could pull off a cool finishing move. You'll also get other unlock able abilities, which consist mostly of long range attacks and some team upgrades, like making your team have improved defense for a certain amount of time. All of these features are decent, but it's nothing you haven't seen done better before. Another thing you'll notice throughout the game is how far the camera is panned out, you'd think that this is just so that you can watch the action on a larger scale, but you'll realize that this is really just a trick so that you can't see the awful character models in the game. They look good enough when you select you character, but when you actually see them in action with a close enough camera angle you'll realize how bad they look, they don't look to great for a last gen game let alone a next gen one. In fact the the whole game looks pretty bad, especially with the larger bosses when you get to see them up close.
