KOMPAS.com – Marvel fans in Indonesia can now visit the Marvel Exhibition – said to be the largest in Southeast Asia – at Pondok Indah Mall 3, South Jakarta until September 14.

Three days after the exhibition was launched, Kompas.com visited the venue, showcasing the best collection of more than 60 Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) original movie props, costumes, and concept art from selected movies on Monday, June 6.

Upon arrival at the entrance, crew members will usher visitors to proceed to the City Hall to exchange their ticket barcode with Marvel ID.
