This sounds likely. During X-Men: First Class and The Wolverine, Hasbro released comic-related toys to capitalize on the films: X-Men: First Class comic packs (strangely with Cylops/Marvel Girl and Wolverine/Sabertooth, neither of whom were in the film) and various Wolverine-branded comic-inspired toys, such as those 3 3/4" figures , Marvel Legends, mask and a wearable Wolverine clawed arm. Also, the Marvel movies are a sure bet for success, and Spider-Man is probably the biggest hero around (sorry Batman).
