Marvel Superheroes Science Exhibit

"Marvel Super Heroes," which ran in many science centres in 2006 and 2007, immersed visitors in the electrifying sights, sounds and sensations of the Marvel Universe while they explored how some of the most loved comic book heroes and villains bring science into their world.

Daredevil had a special section where visitors could "See if their senses are as sharp as Daredevil's when they navigate through an alleyway using their sense of touch and hearing clues".

McDonald described the exhibit to me: "The inside of the exhibit was completely dark and mildly padded with a few random columns spaced throughout, and as you can see, the walls are randomly curvy as well. The visitor would be encouraged to walk SLOWLY through the exhibit and make noise, seeing how the sound changed as they got close to a solid surface, helping them navigate around obstacles and through to the exit."

Marvel Superheroes Adventure City

A Marvel themed amusement park was based in a Niagara Falls, Ontario hotel on Clifton Hill, in 2007. In 2008, all signs related to Marvel characters were taken down...
