Overview

Calling all True Believers! Dive into the incredible world of superheroes on a tour that could only exist in New York City—the real-life inspiration for so many comic book adventures.

On this action-packed walking tour, you’ll explore the places where the comic book industry was born and where legendary creators brought your favorite heroes to life. Walk along historic Publisher’s Row, see iconic filming locations from superhero movies, and visit sites connected to the artists and writers who built the Marvel and DC universes.

Along the way, you’ll discover the stories behind characters created by legends like Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, while standing in the very city that inspired the skylines of both Gotham City and Metropolis.

From famous comic book landmarks to recognizable movie locations, this tour is the ultimate experience for comic fans, movie lovers, and anyone who’s ever wondered:

Is New York really Gotham… or Metropolis?
