Join us for a new series of screenings in the library's Montalbano Family Theatre highlighting the complexity of Marvel movies. Are you feeling overwhelmed by superhero fatigue? Has Marvel strayed too far its comic book origins? With intricate plots, numerous characters, and a specific viewing order, you might find yourself wanting to revisit the excitement of the fandom on the big screen.
After the movie, there will be an opportunity for a short discussion with other audience members.
