Heroes And Villains

It doesn't get much better than this: 25 Marvel superheroes and villains under one roof.

That's the premise behind "Marvel Universe Live," which can be experienced at the BB&T Center in Sunrise Jan. 10-13 and at AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami Jan. 17-21.

"Marvel fans, assemble for this live, action-packed, legendary battle to defend the universe from evil. Spider-Man, the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy join forces with Doctor Strange, master of the mystic arts, in a race against time to recover the Wand of Watoomb before it falls into Loki's hands," notes the venue's website. "This ancient artifact holds immeasurable mystical power and would allow Loki to achieve his eternal quest to crown himself ruler of Asgard and Earth."

Which characters can you expect to see? Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Black Panther, the Incredible Hulk and Black Widow, to name a few. 

"Their journey sparks new feuds with old foes, pitting student against mentor, sister against sister and brother against brother," notes the website.

The family-friendly show has wowed audiences thus far.

"Combined with the latest special effects and stunning aerial artistry, this is one show you can't miss. Incredible pyrotechnics meet motorcycle stunts in a non-stop thrills experience for the entire family," notes Forbes. "It's an adrenaline rush as you watch the Marvel universe in a race against time to protect the world from evil. Featuring an original story that brings the majority of the Marvel characters together in a single production, fans should prepare themselves for an unprecedented adventure." O
