A Super Day with Super Hereos
13 June 2018
With original comic book artwork, DC movie props and costumes and a history of DC comics, the Dawn of Super Hereos exhibition is a great day out for anyone interested in these wonderful characters. I found the audio description for some of the exhibits really helpful and the television monitors scattered throughout the exhibition featuring interviews with some of the creative team who have worked with these characters, was a particularly nice touch. To see the entire history of DC comics laid out, starting from the earliest material up to the most recent, was a real joy. A really fun day out which the entire family will enjoy. I would highly recommend it.
