I have always been and Edguy fan...used to be a big fan until about the time Mandrake came out.  The silliness and the reduction of the bombast lost some for me.
 
Superheroes offers a lot for an EP...ony one song you'll have to buy again..one cover and 3 new songs...that works for me.  The title track is an accessible Edguy tune...a little campy but good.  Spooks in the Attic is a good, catchy tune.  Blessing in Disguise is a surprisingly good power ballad.  Judas at the Opera is a return to some bombast a la VGO & ToS, too bad some of the lyrics are totally annoying (on the silly side).  It also features Kiske.  The Spirit is a nice soothing acoustic Magnum cover.  I think it is my favorite on the album.
 
The final track is an "epic" version of Superheroes.
 
Pretty decent for an EP.
 
Favorites:  The Spirit, Spooks in the Attic
