    I was wondering when you'd get around to this one. I'd say it's slightly above average for a SNES Beat'em up. And it's one of the better games from that era based on a comic book. It is a bit of a slog, but the pixel art, music, and story do make up for it. It's good enough to add it to your SNES classic or retropie machine.

    H.A.R.D. Corps was great! I loved Image as well, as a kid I grew bored with Marvel when the focus of a particular issue of Spider Man was Mary Jane's emotional struggle to quit smoking. Even back then I knew there was something ultimately lame about where Marvel was going. Even The Punisher started getting soft, which is inexcusable. Then I discovered Image and was hooked. The first issue I read was Shadowhawk #1 and that was all I needed to get as many Image comics that my allowance could afford. When Image and Valiant did the Deathmate crossover, I'm pretty sure that was the first asexual boner I achieved when finding out about it.

    Good review but I gotta disagree! I don't care for Image Comics and never heard of WildCATS. But I played for the first time recently and think this is a quality beat em up. You noted a lack of run which is true but there is a dive kick! I think it was intended bc at least Spartan and Warblade have one and they're both executed differently. This helps mobility a ton. I also found some of the things you complained about to exist in more modern games, particularly length. I'm using save states so maybe that makes length more palatable. Similarly, Streets of Rage 4 has those environmental hazards, in abundance. I'm ok with them in both.

    A fantastic game that left a lot on the table when the development was rushed after the cancellation of the cartoon. If you had 2 player and 1-2 more characters it would rock. This review is biased by my love for the characters and because I only paid $5 for it. At full price when it was released I'm sure I would look less favorably upon it.
