Marvel Super Heroes: The Exhibition
|
Currently, Marvel Super Heroes: The Exhibition is touring the country. The exhibit features Marvel heroes like Iron Man, Spider-Man, Hulk, and various X-Men in interactive experiments. Visitors can experience the powers of Marvel heroes while learning a little bit of the science behind the hero. You can get inside the Hulk's gamma-charged brain, use radar like Daredevil to navigate a dark hallway, climb on the wall like Spider-Man, operate Doc Ock's tentacles, and more. For parents and educators, the exhibit's site features a Content Guide with ideas for organizing a school visit or for enhancing the educational experience for you or your children. |

Below are a few pics of the Iron Man display from my visit to the exhibit at the St. Louis Science Center. Besides the science experiments, there's an art gallery, a short film with Stan Lee, and, of course, a gift shop. The St. Louis showing featured a tribute gallery to hometown girl Laurel K. Hamilton's work.

The Iron Man exhibit allows guests to harness the power of Iron Man's armor. Thanks to pulleys, you can lift a Ford Edge SUV like it's nothing. |

There's a short character bio next to the Edge. |
The exhibit is accented with a life-size Iron Man standup. |
This IM banner (art from the Chen/Busiek era) hangs over the whole area.
