It's no small job protecting Super Hero City from the wild, weird (&
even wacky) villainy of Villainville'
Wolverine, the Hulk, the Silver Surfer, Thor and the Falcon are always
up for the job. Shouting "Hero Up!" as they rush into battle, the Squad
must keep Dr. Doom's minions from gathering pieces of the Infinity
Sword. Otherwise, Doom will use the Sword to rule the universe! Luckily,
the City is filled with Marvel Super Hero guest-stars to help out in a
pinch. These brave heroes totally deliver the action - but with plenty
of humor on the side.
On July 13, 2010, Shout! Factory, in collaboration with Marvel
Animation, will release The Super Hero Squad Show: Quest For The
Infinity Sword! Volume 1 DVD, featuring the first six episodes from the
first season of this popular action-packed animated series and special
bonus features including a new interview with Stan Lee, Hero & Villain
character profiles and a sneak peek at Quest For The Infinity Sword!
Volume 2 DVD. A must-have for heroes of all ages, this DVD is priced to
own at $14.93 SRP.
Boasting a stellar ensemble of well-known celebrity voice talent, The
