To me, this is one of the best beat em up games of all time, not to mention you can get it for a pretty cheap price. The whole comic book theme is very fun to go through, with different panels and pages. They even have those dialogue bubbles when they talk, and (sometimes) the evil guy draws the enemies you have to defeat. People actually think this game is repetitive-are you kidding me? There are so many different enemies that I never got bored playing it. I haven't played too many of these side-scrolling (more like panel-jumping) punch kick games, but I had a very good time playing this one. If you have a Genesis, just go out and get it. If you don't, get a Genesis for maybe $20-40, because there is an abundance of good title on the Genesis, and get this game along with all of the Sonic the Hedgehog ones. There's only one bad thing about this game, and I don't think this one thing should stop you from getting this awesome game. It is just VERY challenging, and I mean it's challenging. Sometimes it's a fun challenge, other times you'll feel like never playing the game again. This only means the levels take a while to master, and I think they should have made the health gauge a tad bit longer. You only get one health gauge, and it is VERY hard to keep it up most of the time. Other than that, this game is very fun, and you don't have to be willing to sit through it to play it-you only have to be willing to have fun. I think this should have been named a classic, because it's almost as good as Street Fighter 2 (the Genesis version)but maybe it wasn't named a classic because it wasn't too well recognized. Get it, play it, enjoy it.
