Have you ever wished you could see some of the mightiest heroes of the comic world live(!) and in person, duking it out with classic, sinister villains? Then Marvel’s touring arena mega-show is just what the Doc Ock ordered.

Marvel spared no expense on this one. The show delivers breathtaking stunts, and inspired engineering. Overturned, exploding cars, and quick, choreographed fighting result in every nerdy kid’s wet dream.

That is, if you can manage to look past some terribly cheesy costuming (looking at you, Hulk and Lizard), and poorly scripted female characters, “ Yeah, well, you wear too much makeup!” PUNCH PUNCH KICK! WOMEN AM I RIGHT????

Marvel Universe Live is… pretty terrible, but also quite amazing. Go for the kid in you; stay because the adult in you already dropped $40 to $100 on seats.

Marvel Universe Live runs from July 10th – 13th at Tampa Bay Times Forum.
