Back in the early 90s (was like under 10 yrs old at the time), my friends and I would always talk about:
Super Hero (X-men) fighting games
Super Hero RPGs
This was when the X-Men Saturday morning show was huge and comic cards/books/graphic novels were getting really mainstream and popular. It seemed like low-hanging fruit for game companies and were shocked there weren't any in the marketplace. Seems like the fighting games happened in spades since shortly after X-Men and Marvel fighting games were in arcades, but not so much the RPGs for some reason.
The closet thing I can remember was X-Men game a few gens ago, but it was more of an action diablo ish RPG.

The XMen games were fantastic and led to the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance games. This eventually led to the now-shuttered Marvel Heroes MMO.
