Marvel Super Heroes Assemble On Disney's Club Penguin
KELOWNA, British Columbia, June 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvel mania has reached all the way to Club Penguin Island, the #1 virtual world for kids, as penguins assemble for the Marvel Super Hero Takeover, an epic online event starting June 14th through July 3rd.
A meteor has hit the island of Club Penguin, powering up the dangerous Destructobot. Players can choose to suit up as one of 14 Marvel Super Heroes or Super-Villains, including Avengers characters such as Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and Thor, as well as the mischievous Super-Villain Loki.
"Everyone wants to feel special and believe that they can do something that no one else can do. That optimism is what drives both Club Penguin and the Marvel story lines and characters," said Lane Merrifield, co-founder of Club Penguin and executive vice president of Disney Interactive Worlds. "Club Penguin and Marvel characters are the perfect match, and I'm sure our players will love it!"
"Bringing our worlds together marks a major milestone for both Marvel and Club Penguin," said Rob Steffens, Executive Vice President of Marvel Entertainment. "Reactions from the fans are already tremendous, and we're thrilled that we're able to bring Marvel and Club Penguin together for such an epic event."
