    Superhero Squad is not the Teen Avengers dvd as SHS arrives in 2009, while Teen Avengers is a mid 2008 release. Superhero Squad is either a new superteam, or just a place holder til the real title is revealed.

    Yup, Superhero Squad is a Toyline of Hasbro's. Basically they have the original Avengers, X-Men, and the FF.

    So I'm guessing a Superhero Squad cartoon will be following the cutsy designs of the toys, and have story lines for very young kids.

    Good, make kid specific crap, and try to release more mature/serious ones for the ageing fans!

    I hate when they dumb things up for the kids sake.

    It's the name of the kids toy line...

    http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/ProductsByBrand.htm?BR=820&SBR=450

    Some of them are hillarious looking...for example...

    Look at that Sentinel! That's the happiest genocidal, racist killing machine I've ever seen!

    So as has been said, it's probably gonna be a show/movie/whatever aimed at young kids, 3-10 I would guess, just like the toys.

    When we first got those at the Toys R Us I work at, me and one of my co-workers just stood there for 2 minutes laughing at the Galactus one. The Sentinel and Apocalypse which just came out recently are even funnier though.

    My guess is this will be similar in tone to the old Spider-Man Electric Company shows, where the villains arent really all that villainous, and the heroes are all happy and get along.

    Although, an odd thing, is that they actually made a Civil War set of the figures too...for some reason Hulk was in it :confused:

    Fin Fang Foom appears to be on drugs. Also, the Wasp is clearly a dude.

    More likely (considering the young avengers dvd bit is already a kid friendly property) they are simply using it as a bland place name while they work on something like the defenders or champions or whatever in secret.

    What's hilarious is on top of all those other characters, which can be violent and all but aren't too bad, they actually have a Deadpool and Punisher set:
