WizKids

For years, WizKids' Heroclix have been giving fans and table-top gamers the chance to rewrite history's greatest comic book battles. After decades of wondering who would really win in a fight between Hulk and the Thing, Batman and Bane or even Superman and Thor, Heroclix provided a "definitive" way for fans to settle all bets.Originally billed as one of the greatest fights in the history of the universe, Superman versus Muhammad Ali didn't quite live up to the slugfest we'd all envisioned. That's what happens when two generally solid gentlemen work together to stop an alien invasion. Now, Heroclix will finally allow us to learn which of the heavyweights would truly come out on top in a boxing match unrivaled in hype with an exclusive set coming out this summer.

If you can sense that feeling of excitement, panic and salt in the air, you know San Diego Comic-Con is near. There's just something about this annual gathering of fans, creators, actors and cosplayers that makes the summer that much more special. Oh right, it's all the toys. In addition to being host to all manner of awesome announcements, reveals, teasers and trailers, SDCC is also one of the biggest collectible events of the year. Every company big and small rolls out their best and most limited in the hopes of capturing your attention and those dollar dollar bills, y'all. Collected here for you is a comprehensive list of not just what will be available, but where it will be available, and how much it will cost you (where prices have been provided). This is every comic book-related toy and collectible exclusive for San Diego Comic-Con 2016.

A Marvel/DC crossover may not be in the cards in comic books anytime soon, but you can at least have that Thor/Superman fight you've been itching to see again on the screen of your iPad. That's because WizKids/NECA and MFV, makers of the HeroClix TabApp Elite are adding Marvel characters to the game, which already features quite a few DC heroes.
