Konami!

This one's for all you comic book fans.

1.  Go to Marvel's Web site.
2.  Once the page has fully loaded and you're browsing it, hit the following keys:
     Up
     Up
     Down
     Down
     Left
     Right
     Left
     Right
     B
     A
     Then hit enter.

Nothing bad happens, I swear.  It's just a little easter egg Marvel planted on the site, in line with most of the variants covers the company has been shipping lately.

Still not sure who I'm talking about?  Then ask yourself, which fan favorite Marvel sociopath suddenly has something like five titles coming out this month, a movie in the works, and a sidekick named Bob?  Yeah.  You know who.

Marvel even used the old Konami classic code! If you were even a casual videogamer throughout the eighties and nineties, you've probably had to memorize this code at some point. (I didn't discover this myself, in case you're wondering.  I read about it on Bleeding Cool.)
