Top 5 Marvel Apps for iPhone

Best ways to assemble Avengers on iPhone

The Marvel universe has been pushed to the forefront of popular culture over the past decade.

From Raimi's Spider-Man films and Hulk's movie misfires, to the huge success of the Iron Man franchise, comic book heroes have leapt from their panels to become mainstream stars in their own right.

With the hugely anticipated Avengers Assemble flick due to open in cinemas worldwide on Thursday, we thought it was time to ask one important question: What are the Top 5 Marvel apps for iPhone?

So, suit up, grab your handset, and prepare to answer the call of the hero. Unless it's from a withheld number, obviously.

	Spider-Man™: Total Mayhem Gameloft
	Though Spidey has numerous games to his name, few convey the acrobatic thrill of web-based combat as effectively as Gameloft's highly regarded chart-topper. Bold visuals and imaginative fighting mechanics make this arachnid action title the most fun you can have in a primary-coloured onesie.

	X-Men Konami Digital Entertainment
	If you're old enough to remember when this game first arrived in arcades, then you're probably too old to be playing comic book games on your mobile. I kid, of course - this nostalgia-fuelled trip down Retro Avenue will unleash the inner child in everyone. Just make sure yours doesn't tape butter knives to its hands and start calling everyone 'Bub'.

	IRON MAN: AERIAL ASSAULT Paramount Digital Entertainment
	If you've always dreamed of zooming across the sky in a red and gold mechanical suit, dogfighting with jets, and blasting drones, then you have very specific dreams. Also, you should probably check out this handsome airborne shooter, which just happens to feature an arc reactor-powered Tony Stark in full battle gear. Yeah, you can fly.
