The Art of DC – The Dawn of Super Heroes is coming to Yas Mall for its Middle East debut. The exhibition has previously been shown in Paris and London, and celebrates DC's rich history, unique mythology and iconic super heroes and super villains such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and The Joker.

The exhibit will feature a collection of costumes from major blockbuster DC films, such as the famous cape worn by Christopher Reeve in the Superman movies and the iconic Wonder Woman outfit worn by Lynda Carter in the 1970s TV series. Fans will also be treated to rarely seen costumes and props from films directed by Zack Snyder, Tim Burton, Joel Schumacher and Christopher Nolan, including exclusive artworks from the Justice League film.

Comic book fans won't be disappointed either – The Art of DC will contain original comic pages and artwork of heroes and villains from world-renowned artists such as Jim Lee, Bob Kane, Neal Adams, Frank Miller, Alex Ross and many more. The exhibition will contain around 160 original drawings and 200 preparatory sketches from DC's movies.
