Superhero Apps

Which Superhero Are You (Free. iOS and Android) I'd like to first point out that the Android and Apple versions do the same ting but are from different companies. The Android version has better graphics and includes villains. What you can do is pick a superhero in your head, answer questions, and see if it guesses correctly. The other use is to answer the questions about yourself and see what superhero (or villain) you are most like. It's cute and appropriate for all ages.

Super Hero Photo Quiz (Free. iOS only) If you are a comic book, anime, and manga master this is the app for you. It shows a picture of a character and you try to answer their name. You can get help but it costs coins, which you are awarded with correct answers, watch ads, write a review of the app, share on Facebook, or purchase. Users might get frustrated and give up quickly or they will really like it.

Comic Book Trivia (Free. Android Only). Test your knowledge of comic book characters. Multiple choice questions that have varying degrees of difficulty. Many reviewers complain that it focuses too heavily on DC and Marvel.

POW (Free. iOS only) A cute app that makes silly superhero sounds (think 60's Batman) when you punch your phone in the air. It can be a quick workout, relieve stress, or in my case annoy the coworkers in the cubicle next to you. Little kids may find it fun and funny. They app was glitch and froze a couple times, so it has some flaws.

Superhero Comic Book Maker ($1.99 iOS only) Create your own digital comics by using pre-made characters, effects, backgrounds, and speech bubbles. You can record your own voice, use 29 different crayons, and animate panels. It seems really aimed at 6 - 12 year old kids. http://www.duckduckmoose.com/educational-iphone-itouch-apps-for-kids/superhero-comic-book-maker/

Comic Strip It! (Free or $1.99 pro version Android only) Create your own comic strips, comic books, memes, story boards, and quick how-to directions. You can share quickly with social media or save your creation. The Pro version gives a lot more tools / options and allows exporting as a digital comic book format.
