About the Game:

 

Players choose from 10 "Squaddies" based on characters from Marvel comic books, including Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Wolverine, Falcon, Scarlet Witch, Invisible Woman, Reptil, Hulk, and for the first time, Squirrel Girl. Players also solve unique puzzles using the tablet to defeat Doctor Doom. Major Marvel Comics antagonists such as Doctor Doom, MODOK, Abomination and Red Skull are portrayed as the main villains of the Comic Combat.

 

Featured Locations include the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, the Baxter Building, the Vault and the Sanctum Sanctorum. Shaking the uDraw GameTablet will cause a massive in-game earthquake. The game includes a total of six comic book-designed stages and additionally players can earn "hero points", that can be used to upgrade all ten characters.

 

 

 

This game REQUIRES a uDraw Game Tablet.

The Tablet is not very expensive and is bundled with a free game (uDraw Studio: Instant Artist).

 

 

Roadmap

 

Step 1: Play through the story

Sit back and enjoy yourself. Get used to the controls and how weird it is to use a uDraw tablet (wishing you could use your controller the entire time *until you get used to the thing).

 

You will earn a majority of the combat and collection trophies along with all the story trophies. Throughout your main playthrough you should consider working toward the Summer Reading trophy. Be sure you read the description, because this trophy is potentially glitched.

 

Once the game is over (It only takes a few hours), you are free to chapter select and finish up anything you missed.

 

Step 2: Cleanup

Use the chapter select feature at the Artist's Desk to finish up any remaining combat/exp/cash/character trophies you might have left. You will definitely have the Squirrel girl trophies left and will need to fight the final boss again.

 

I used Issued 2, Panel 1 for all but one of my combat trophies (Glyph Ball). It's very excellent.

 

Depending on how thorough you were and the game didn't glitch up on you, this step should take you under an hour.

Complete Issue 4

 

Story Related. Cannot be missed

 

[spoiler=abom]

Just own Abomination... He can only be hurt when he is dizzy (stars around his head). Make sure you keep decoys up to avoid the weird orbs and Abomination. When he is dizzy, bomb the crap out of him.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/44E.jpgCleanup in Aisle Villainville (B)

[spoiler=abombbb]This is another fight with Abomination. Modok also makes a mini-boss appearance. Waves of enemies will appear in your fight with Abomination. Kill them, then Abomination will charge. If you have a Hero Up! at your disposal, it makes quick work of the dweeb. If not, bomb him.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/5B0.jpgA Jarring Defeat (B)

Complete Issue 6

 

Story Related. Cannot be missed

 

See The Pen is Mightier for boss details.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/6E4.jpgFive for the Price of One (B)

Defeated 5 enemies simultaneously

 

I'm fairly certain this does not stack with the Eraser Dusted (the Bomb trophy). You need to accomplish this with an Ink Attack or a hold. I did this with Wolverine's hold in Issue 2: Panel 1

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/EB0.jpgHold It! (B)

Defeat an enemy using only Hold abilities

 

You will earn this as part of the game's Tutorial in the first level. Hold your stylus over your hero and push down until the hold ability activates. Defeat an enemy this way and the trophy is yours

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/117.jpgBig Spender (B)

Drain two full bars of ink in a single attack

 

Also can be earned in the first level. I got this during the tutorial on ink attacks. Hold down on your hero and draw a line over enemies to get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/BDD.jpgTwo Birds with One Pen (B)

Use a single ink attack to defeat 2 or more enemies

 

Ink attacks are done by holding down the stylus over one of your heroes and drawing a line over enemies. I did this in the lightning rod battle with Dr. Doom in the first Issue as Scarlet Witch.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/724.jpgDrawn to Distraction (B)

Use a decoy to distract 3 or more enemies at the same time

 

When first taught to use decoys (Issue 2: Panel 1) tons of enemies will start to spawn. When the little hovering robots appear, create a decoy in front of them and move your characters away (individually if you have to) and this should unlock.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/DCA.jpgDouble Vision (B)

Use two decoys simultaneously

 

When first taught to use decoys (Issue 2: Panel 1), just draw 2 instead of the 1 and the trophy will pop

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/010.jpgAll right squaddies... (B)

Use Hero Up!

 

To use Hero Up! Click the Yellow Circle in the middle of your Character Bar when it is full.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/78C.jpg1,000 Issues Sold (B)

Sell 1,000 issues

 

See One Million Sales!.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/518.jpgThat's a Lot of Points (S)

Pick up 1,000 Hero Points

 

Assuming you are breaking everything you see and actually playing the game, this should unlock before you finish the story.

I unlocked this one in Issue 4, Panel 1

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/F2C.jpgHi, there! I'm Squirrel Girl. (S)

Play as Squirrel Girl in a back Issue

 

Just pick an Issue and panel from the Artist's Table. Complete the panel as Squirrel Girl, and this will pop.

Note: This trophy CAN stack with Femme Fight All

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/860.jpgEraser Dusted (B)

Use a glyph bomb to defeat 5 or more enemies at the same time

 

This is another easy one to get in Issue 2: Panel 1. When 2 groups of small floating robots appear, put a bomb between them and tap it to detonate it instantly (this is easier with upgraded bombs)

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/5DD.jpgRock and Roll (B)

Defeat 3 or more enemies with one glyph ball roll

 

Glyph balls are introduced in Issue 2: Panel 2. Draw a circle and use your stylus to direct it in any direction. Defeat 3 enemies in one roll, and the trophy is yours. Note: this cannot be done in Volume 2: Panel 1 due to the fact that it hasn't been unlocked yet (due to story progression)

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/B2B.jpgSix Hexxed (B)

Hit six targets with one hex using Scarlet Witch

 

This is another one where I find Issue 2: Panel 1 to be the best place. Scarlet Witch's "Hex" is her hold.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/FE7.jpgMedicine is the Best Medicine (B)

Pick up a health pack when a hero is about to be defeated

 

This is a very annoying trophy (assuming you don't get lucky and have this unlock during the story). Your character has to have basically NO health whatsoever and not die before you can find a health pack. I did this one in Issue 2, Panel 1. I used the green satellites to lower my health over and over until I got a character's health low enough. Then I just busted up all the breakables to find a health pack.

 

Note: Scarlet Witch will automatically heal at times. You most likely do not want her in your party when you go for this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/39B.jpgA Clean Getaway (B)

Exit a panel with a full ink meter and all heroes at full health

 

This is pretty easily done in the first Issue. When Iron Man is introduced defeat the enemies and then smash everything breakable in the area before entering the red circle. If your health and ink meters are full, this trophy will unlock as soon as you enter the red circle.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/E6E.jpgLight Reading (B)

Find 5 Comic Stacks

 

See Summer Reading

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/64D.jpgShake, Rattle, and Destroy (B)

Use an Earthquake to defeat 5 or more enemies

 

The Earthquake power up looks like a little planet earth with arrows around it. If you have it, it will be under you characters in the top left of the screen. You first have access to one of these beauties in Issue 2: Panel 2. If you save it for when the little flying bots come in, you can easily get this trophy straight away.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/1A4.jpgHulk Can't Count That High! (B)

Sell 10,000 issues

 

See One Million Sales!

 

You should get this in the first episode.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/0BC.jpgPoint Taken (B)

Pick up 75 Hero Points in a single panel

 

Hero Points are the yellow circles with the letter "H" on them hidden in breakable objects and dropped by enemies. I got this as early as issue 1 when I took control of Iron Man/Thor/Witch. Make sure you access the Red Computer terminals

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/AC7.jpgUpsadaisy (B)

Revive a hero to full health

 

Any time a hero dies, you can hold a bandage over them to revive them. Do this until they jump up and they should be at full health (assuming you have enough ink).

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/25A.jpgCostume Change (B)

Start a panel with a hero wearing an alternate costume

 

After Issue 2 you can pick your heroes in issues you've already finished. Click on the "Issues" stack on the Artist Desk and select an issue you haven't done yet. Click a hero you have an alternate costume unlocked for and change it. Now complete 1 panel and as soon as the game saves this trophy will pop.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/007.jpgThe Pen is Mightier (G)

Defeat Doctor Doom in the end boss battle

 

Story Related. Cannot be missed

 

[spoiler=drdoom]This guy is pretty easy. In phase one he will float around summoning a lightning storm. Move your heroes around to avoid them the best you can. He will then drop thumb tacks; come to the ground and make an electrical current between them. When he is on the ground bomb the crap out of him and knock him around with your heroes. In phase 2 he will go off the screen for a second and return with a giant pen. He will summon a few enemies and then come to the ground. Finish him for the trophy.

 

The whole fight took me 1 minute.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/BA6.jpgHulk... SMASH! (S)

Use Hulk to destroy 25 breakables

 

Whenever you are playing as the Hulk, use him to smash stuff. If you still don't have this by the end of the game, grind it out in Issue 2: Panel 1

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/222.jpgLock Unblocker (S)

Open a Factor Lock for each Factor

 

I got this in Issue 2: Panel 2.

 

Factors are objects that can only be opened by a certain type of hero. The ones I know of are Nightmare (Thor?), Animal (Squirrel Girl), Elemental (Thor), Technology (Iron Man), and Strength (Hulk). There also might be a Mutant type. Open one of each and this will unlock.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/2EC.jpgOld Rivalries Revived (S)

Bring Squirrel Girl into the final fight against Doom

 

Replay the final fight, but this time use Squirrel Girl.

 

You don't even have to finish the fight, just go in with Squirrel Girl, wait for the trophy to pop, then return to the Artist's Desk.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/A94.jpgHero Up! (S)

Use Hero Up! five times in one issue

 

To use Hero Up! Click the Yellow Circle in the middle of your Character Bar when it is full. Refill it and use it 5 times in one issue. This should be no trouble.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/31A.jpgHeroic Aerobics (S)

Use Hero Up! to defeat 6 or more enemies

 

To use Hero Up! Click the Yellow Circle in the middle of your Character Bar when it is full. Now find an area with lots of easy enemies surrounding you and let her rip... Kill 6 enemies before your power up drains and the trophy is yours.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/8AB.jpgOne Million Sales! (G)

Sell 1,000,000 issues

 

This should come naturally through story play. Mine unlocked in Issue 5... Just playing the story with minimal backtracking.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/620.jpgFlying off the Shelves! (S)

Sell 7,000 issues in a single panel

 

This can be earned in any panel. I got it in Issue 1: Panel 4. Just smash everything you see and make sure to hover your stylus over any items that come out to collect them.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/BCF.jpgSummer Reading (G)

Find all Comic Stacks

 

Comic Stacks are hidden in boxes in every panel starting in Issue 2. There is 1 Comic Stack per panel and you can check to see which Stacks you are missing by looking at a Issue you have already beaten at the Artist's Table. Click Issues, pick an Issue, and click a Panel. Each panel has a "Heroic Feats" section above the character select. If the Stack icon is lit up, you got the stack in that panel. If it isn't, replay the panel, get the Stack, and exit when the game auto-saves.

Collect all the Stacks, and this trophy is yours.

 

This trophy has been reported glitched but this glitch can be easily avoided.

 

Collecting the comic books through out the game is very easy and when you miss one you are told exactly which panel in which comic it comes from.... although this seemed fine throughout the game...

 

There was one part where the game got confused on the third comic. I re-did a level over and over but could not find it! It turned out that the game was wrong.... it was telling me that I had found the comic stack for the previous panel however I had not but had for the panel it said I didn't have a panel in.... I redid previous level and the comic piece was fine!

 

I know a very minor glitch but it added an hour to my gameplay!

 

Just thought i would write it here in case it may help someone!

 

The BEST way to avoid this glitch is AS SOON as you enter Issue 2 pay attention to every panel and that you are collecting the Stack in that panel BEFORE moving on. Take notes and just remember what you are doing.

 

Remember, it's a new panel when the screen shifts to a new section and the game auto-saves.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/282.jpgA Stranger to Laser Danger (S)

Survive the laser hallway without getting hit by laser

 

This is found in Issue 2, Panel 6

 

I found this trophy incredibly annoying because my characters would NOT cooperate and decided to move around on their own. I suggest using either 3 range characters for this panel or 3 melee characters and moving them all at once to a safe location any time the laser is about to fire. You can tell by the sound the laser makes and also the small yellow orbs gathering around the central belt.

 

I ended up using Hulk, Wolverine, and Thor. As soon as the Panel starts, go as FAST as you can along the far right side of the central laser area. Stay as far to the right as possible. After 2 or 3 tries I made it to the very end (past the lasers) before the 2nd laser even went off.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/F41.jpgBare Hands Brigade (S)

Complete a panel using Wolverine, Reptil, and Hulk

 

This can be done after beating Issue 3.

Same as Femme Fight All but with Wolverine, Riptil, and Hulk

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/CAD.jpgFemme Fight All (S)

Complete a panel using Scarlet Witch, Squirrel Girl, and Invisible Woman

 

This can be done after beating Issue 3.

 

After unlocking the 3 characters in the description (Scarlet Witch, Squirrel Girl, and Invisible Woman), simply pick a volume, panel, and these 3 characters. Complete the panel and when the game autosaves, this trophy will ding.

 

Note: This stacks with Hi, there! I'm Squirrel Girl.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/526.jpgLoose Canon (S)

Complete a panel with all heroes in alternative costumes

 

This is the same as Costume Change but do it with all 3 characters. Alternate costumes are unlocked as you collect Sales.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1291/51A.jpgJust Don't Call Me 'Wolvie' (S)

Land the final blow on a Brute with Wolverine

 

Brutes are the Doombots that are big and stomp around (they have no area attacks). The easiest and quickest place to get this is likely Issue 5, Volume 1.

 

If you are having issues getting Wolverine to get the final blow, select him only and concentrate his attacks on the Brute. Your other characters will probably be otherwise occupied. Bomb the Brute to knock down some health, and finish him off with Wolverine's grab or ink charge.

Good write-up Skyripper. While just about all of the set will likely be unlocked through natural progression and experimentation, I do agree with all the tips given. :)

 

It is true Five for the Price of One does not stack with Eraser Dusted, but on the next mobs I ran into I dropped the eraser again and it did unlock on its own. Game has its share of little glitches as we all know, but not enough to distract from the fun experience.

I think this guide is pretty good for this simple game, but, for Summer Reading, I would like to have a more comprehensive guide about which characters can unlock different doors. I think Scarlet is required for one type, and is missing from roadmap section. Took a while to figure out what I was missing, I first suspected it was the glitch (previous issue having the comic book), then finding out there was some place I could not reach with default/chosen characters.

 

Another one I was having difficulties was that Hexxed trophy. First, I tried to press button over Scarlet a few times before I realised I have to use her charge attack (by drawing from Scarlet over the enemies).

Skyripper,

 

Can you clarify Lock Unblocker?

 

I've played issue 2 panel 2 quite a few times now, but can't unlock this trophy no matter what combination of heroes I bring in.

 

It's not clear exactly what needs to be unlocked or unblocked! Thx!!

 

great guide btw :applause:

What I meant was that I unlocked it by issue 2, panel 2. Opening hero specific portals into rooms or the weird white bonus rooms count as unblocking. Just open every one you come across and the trophy should come naturally.

I'm a little annoyed... Of course I missed one of the comics, and now I can't find it.

 

I noticed something though, that I've not seen anyone mention, and that is that if you select a Panel it might say you have the stack, but if you go into the character change page of that panel the stack is not lit.... This is the case on 2 or 3 panels in chapter 5.

 

Could this mean you have to get the comic with multiple characters?

 

 

Also, the only stack unlit from the first page of the comic is 2-5, but that one seemed glitched for everyone. I did find one in 2-4 I missed, but 2-5 didn't lit up.

 

Do I have to do a second playthrough, or did you guys eventually find a way to find the missing comic?

I am a few trophies short... of course I don't have all the comics. Not sure how I missed some...

 

Not sure what the "glitch" means in regards to missing a comic stacks. I'm stuck in Issue 2 Panel 5 cubicles. I have no idea where to get the comic in it. Help?

2-5 never lit up for me.

 

I decided to bite the bullet and do a 2nd playthrough. While following the collectible guide here http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/marvel-super-hero-squad-comic-combat/151863-marvel-super-hero-squad-comic-combat-collectibles-guide.html

 

I think the 2-5 will never lit up, because I found it both on my first and 2nd playthrough and it still was dark. Got the platinum nevertheless.
