While Marvel's own MMO title never got it off the ground, its DC counterpart (DC Universe Online) seems to be having more success as Sony Online Entertainment recently revealed some first-look screenshots of the game. Based on the artwork of world-renowned artist Jim Lee, the in-game images certainly capture the flavor of the DC universe in all its stylized comic book glory.

In addition, fans of the game can also get a chance to meet with some of the developers and score some neat swag at the exclusive DC Universe Online party at the Comic-Con event this July 25. However, invites are pretty limited so make sure to make DCUO your top MySpace friend as soon as possible if you want to make it to the party.

You can also check out some of the exclusive concept art wallpapers found on the source page, which you can accessible through the link we've provided. In any case, you can view the rest of the in-game, Gotham-themed images below. Enjoy!
