Though I haven't played either Legendary or DCCDBG I want to share with you a game I played and still occasionally play which felt superheroey in every aspect. This game is the now defunct VS. System CCG (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/13293/vs-system) from Upperdeck which enjoyed quite a success during its heyday. Though it was a CCG it is dirt cheap to get cards now. And there are lots of it. Almost every major and minor Marvel and DC character has at least one card. There even were a Hellboy set and a Galactus Raid-deck. After it was abandonend by Upperdeck some loyal fans even kept making fanmade sets (see here: http://www.vssystem.org).

Though MTG-derivative, it was pretty well balanced (excluding the last few sets), full of difficult decisions and the best thing was the great thematic implementation of the superhero and- villains in the card-mechanics. It actually felt like the different superheroes were duking it out over the course of a game, surprising plot twists and bomb-out wins included.

Thought you guys should know about this once great game (though you probably knew already).
