    Superman

    Chillingo

    The greatest super hero of all time is now in one of the coolest games to ever feature him. Chillingo's Superman is an incredible effort that minimizes gameplay for maximum enjoyment. Fly around the city of Metropolis as you put out fires, destroy enemy robots, take out meteors and knock out the bad guys. The flying aspect of the game is so enjoyable that it's fun to take The Man of Steel up into the cold reaches of outer space even if the mission doesn't require it. With 18 different levels and loads of missions, you'll be spending more time in the air with Kal-El then Lois Lane ever could.

    Batman: Arkham Origins

    Warner Bros. Entertainment

    Even it's not the best Batman game out there for iOS, Arkham origins will still give Batfans their money's worth. Especially since the game is free. But free comes at a price. While the graphics and fights are awesome, the wait in-between is a cruel trick only The Joker could come up with.
