description Overpower Overview
OverPower is a collectible card game first introduced by Fleer in 1995, initially using characters from Marvel Comics and later adding other comic-book properties. Players build teams of heroes and villains, then use character, power, universe, and special cards to conduct team-based battles. Its distinctive design assigns characters numerical values in several combat categories, so deck construction depends on matching characters with compatible attacks and support cards.
