Marvel: Universe of Superheroes
80 years. 80 years of super heroes, 80 years of epic battles, 80 years of Marvel.
Seattle’s Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) was given the daunting task of putting together an exhibit showcasing the rich history that is Marvel and last Friday, we were honoured to be invited to cover the opening weekend red carpet.
It was an incredible evening. The audience made up of museum members, press, and special guests were able to listen to the people who made this event possible. We also got to see first hand just how much love was put into curating this exhibit. The team at MoPOP were thrown the gauntlet 😉 and they absolutely delivered, expertly piecing together an immersive Marvel experience.

You don’t even have to be a comic book fan to appreciate how much the Marvel Universe has impacted the world. Comics provide not only an escape, but also a message of hope. That despite how trying a situation may be, we can embody those superheroes on the page. It’s not the weapons, suits, or otherworldly powers that make them heroes, it’s heart.
Be on the lookout for our peek inside the exhibit coming soon or check out Marvel: Universe of Superheroes yourself on now at MoPOP Seattle until January 2019.
Always be curious,
