DC Comics Hero, Superman, Gets Own Slot At Online Casinos

CryptoLogic has signed a deal with DC Comics that will allow the software provider to develop games based on some of the most popular comic book figures of all-time. The Superman slot is one that online players have been waiting for since the deal was struck. The game features Superman, of course, but has much more detail than what one would expect. First off, the game has fifty pay lines. This comes at a time when the slot games are becoming more advanced, and increased pay line slots are becoming the norm at online casinos. Superman also comes with an optional bonus bet in which players can take the chance to win additional money on their wins. The bonus is similar to what casinos have done with blackjack in the past couple of years.
