PHOENIX — A live-action Marvel show will be wowing audiences in Phoenix next month.

Marvel Universe Live! will stop at US Airways Center from March 5 to March 8.

The show, branded as Marvel’s “first-ever live arena event,” will feature more than 25 superheroes — think Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, etc. — fighting for control of the Cosmic Cube.

Event organizer Kenneth Feld said it took nearly two years to plan.

“Working with our incredible Marvel partners, our heroic team has really gone above and beyond with stunning innovations,” he said in a release.

Tickets are available online. Prices start at $20.

Last year, the Phoenix area served as the debut for the Marvel Experience, a massive nerdvana attraction at Salt River Fields.
