Marvel 'Super Hero Squad' Licensed By THQ

If you are unfamiliar with Marvels "Super Hero Squad" line of toys, I'll explain. It's a series of small figures, usually sold in packs, with tiny, super-deformed figures of various Marvel heroes and Villains. The catch is, every single damn one of them is grinning like a madman. Even the bad guys. It actually freaks me out a bit because Galactus, Sentinels, Apocalypse... these are villains who actively try to commit genocide. Seeing them look this... happy... is just creepy to me.
Now it looks like they'll be in a series of games from THQ. I'm guessing the gameplay will probably be similar to the recent Lego games. Personally, I'm not sure I can handle the cute.

I love how friendly that Galactus looks...like he wouldnt devour your planet. Aw!
Comic books aren't really for kids anymore. Why do they keep coming out with kids merchandise?
I think it's funny that they package The Punisher with Ghost Rider. . . Double Death of Fun! :D
