Check Out Marvel Battleworld!
I am not hating this; not at all! I mean, I’ve loved Teen Titans Go (besides the movies) for years. And now, I am looking at something that looks like a similar amount of fun: “Marvel Battleworld!”

Check out the trailer:
Last month, Marvel.com introduced a new tabletop game connected to the series:
“Marvel Universe, combines micro collectible characters, cards, and gaming, allowing kids to battle against Thanos in gameplay unleashed through a Battle Ball.
Each Battle Ball contains a surprise of two Marvel collectible characters, Hero Cards, Battle Cards, and a pair of dice, all for a highly accessible price point. Players can collect Marvel micro heroes ranging from icons like Iron Man, Captain Marvel, and Groot, as well as characters like Valkyrie, Gamora, and Throg.
Okay, I can pretty much guarantee I won’t play the game (my kids will probably want to), but I will be watching the shorts.
