Famed Marvel Comics superheroes like Spider-Man, X-Men and the
Fantastic Four will soon call a part of Hong Kong Disneyland home, when
the theme park opens an area dedicated to the comic-book stars.
The addition of Marvel in Hong Kong will be the first of its kind of
any Disney resort, and could be a big draw for mainland Chinese tourists
after the success of several Hollywood smash-hits that featured Marvel
characters. Marvel superheroes could also attract older and more
affluent visitors, as opposed to the younger audiences that the
traditional Disney characters target.
The Marvel addition is the latest move by Disney aimed at reaping the
benefits of its $4 billion acquisition in 2009 of Marvel Entertainment.
In May, “The Avengers”, the first Marvel film to be released by Disney
since its Marvel purchase, shattered box-office records.

Are they going to have Loki too? There's a lot of fan-girls out there that absolutely love him! I think it has more to do with Tom Hiddleston!
