Anybody been to the DC Exhibition at London's O2 Arena?

[Milk Tray Guy]

My son and I are going tomorrow. On display are original costumes and props from the Burton and Nolan movies, Chris Reeve's Superman movies, and the current DCEU. Plus some TV stuff as well (including Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman outfits). There's also loads of original DC artwork from over the years.

Anybody else going, or already been? Runs until Sept 9th.


Edit: Went today and thoroughly enjoyed it! Fantastic to see all those TV and movie costumes and props up so close (shame they didn't have the Adam West/Burt Ward B&R outfits or Helen Slater's Supergirl suit, but I guess they had to draw the line somewhere!). Really well laid out, with everything in a logical order. Some absolutely beautiful concept art/digital paintings from the movies. Great original artwork from the comics too. Especially liked the insight into the design and layout of comic covers. Probably spent two hours in there - and that didn't include the shop! If anyone else is thinking of going I really recommend it

Awesome dude, glad it went well and you both enjoyed. The layout and thought gone into it is solid and the mix of history of each character is really well done.

no but I did see the 75 years of Batman exhibit at Warner brothers back in 2014 that was awesome!

 

[Iceman]

Yes, went with Mandon Knight a while back. Loads of classic comic panels and great film props. I’d love if they expanded it to cover characters who haven’t appeared in films in more depth. No doubt it will also improve as more new films come out with new characters. Got myself a comics JL pencil case t: and had my eye on a comics Superman Doomsday T-shirt.

That sounds pretty cool!

Nice! I picked up a Wonder Woman figurine, a 'Killing Joke' poster, and a Batman heat change mug Plus the programme/guidebook had come down in price to £12 (really impressed with the quality of that).

It's actually the one featured here (based on one of her earliest BvS publicity shots - there's a side-by-side comparison further down the page)

They do a Batman in his BvS armour in the same series but they didn't have any of those left

A comic-book WW figure would be nice. Do you ever get up to Forbiddden Planet in London? They might be able to help you out.
