Prior to the beginning of the series, the villainous Doctor Doom attempts to acquire the limitless reality-bending power of the 'Infinity Sword' in pursuit of world domination. The series was produced by Film Roman and Marvel Animation. The show is also a self-aware parody of the Marvel characters, with influences taken from on the comedic Mini Marvels series of parody comic books, in that the heroes tend to find themselves in comedic situations, and have cartoonish bents in comparison to their usually serious personalities (such as The Incredible Hulk being jovial and good-natured but with 'major anger issues'). It is based on the Marvel Super Hero Squad action figure line from Hasbro, which portray the Avengers, the X-Men, and various other characters of the Marvel Universe in a cartoonish super-deformed style.
The Super Hero Squad Show is an American superhero animated series produced by Marvel Animation.
