The Hero Arrives On iPhone


At $1.99, The Hero for the iPhone, iPod Touch "is a lightning-fast arcade romp that sizzles with comic book style, sassy characters and superhuman gameplay; fly to the rescue, arcing gracefully through gorgeous cityscapes as you speed to the aid of scores of helpless victims."
