Captain America, Iron Man and their respective allies will duke it out on screen today in movie theaters everywhere. "Captain America: Civil War" represents the first time a group of heroes has battled amongst themselves in big-budget form, although Batman and Superman gave us a one-on-one sneak preview earlier this year in "Dawn of Justice." And while Marvel has popularized the term "Civil War" in comic-fan circles, heroes have been fighting with each other for decades.

In today's Top 10 list, a Friday staple here at CollecTwins, we'll count down our favorite Marvel hero vs. hero comic book covers ever (opinion-based of course) to get our guards ready for this weekend's super-anticipated actioner.
First things first, though -- here are three hero vs. hero collectibles.

Superman vs He-Man by Mattel |
Mattel's "Adult Collector" DC Universe Classics and Masters of the Universe Classics action figure lines collided with some interesting "Vs." two-packs. This exclusive release from Toys R Us pits Superman against He-Man (we'll give Superman the edge on this one). Others include Hawkman Vs. Stratos and Supergirl Vs. She-Ra.

This vintage poster from 1990 brings Mike Zeck's classic cover to Captain America annual #8 to life. Cap and Wolvie have never looked so good. This rare and collectible poster from the '90s can be found on eBay or occasionally at a comic convention or toy show.

Marvel's Greatest Battles Comic Pack from Hasbro |
Hasbro has released a smorgasbord of fantastic "Greatest Battles" comic packs, including this classic slobberknocker between Wolverine and The Hulk. Each collectible two-pack includes two figures and a comic book (hence the title "Comic Packs"). Others to look out for include Dr. Strange/Silver Surfer, Power Man/Iron Fist and Captain America/Falcon.
