8. Osborn Industries

Osborn Industries Building

Spider-Man fans are familiar with Norman Osborn’s company, Osborne Industries. In Doom Alley, to the left of the entrance for Dr Doom’s Fearfall, you’ll see the sign for this company, flanked by busts of Venom.

9. Thug audio in Doom Alley

Doom Alley Alcove

Beneath the Osborn Industries sign and a bit to the right you’ll see a nondescript alcove. Step into this space and listen carefully. You’ll hear hidden audio of two thugs planning their next caper. This little bit is particularly fun because, unlike the communication ports, this one is much harder to find and often goes unnoticed.

10. Dr. Doom’s throne

Dr. Doom's Throne

If you pay close attention to the queue video for Dr. Doom’s Fearfall, you’ll catch a glimpse of this villain’s iconic throne. If you’re itching for a closer look, or perhaps think that you would look even better in that plush chair, head into the arcade and look for the stairs. These take you up to a small landing where you’ll find the throne in all its glory. This is an ideal spot for an easily overlooked photo op.

11. Subtle signage

Fruit Stand

While the signs for classic comic buildings like Stark Industries are plenty descriptive, you may notice that other signs in the area are unusually brief and to-the-point. The signs for food and merchandise locations say things like “Fruit” and “Comics.” This isn’t because the area’s designers couldn’t think of anything better, but because these signs fit into the comic book world you’re walking through. Peruse a classic comic book and you’ll see similar word use on the buildings, which don’t use brand names.

12. Meteor crash site

Meteor Crash Site

The meteor crash site is easy to spot, but many guests don’t get what this area is all about. The crash site is purportedly where a supernatural meteor once landed, giving once ordinary citizens the super powers that turned them into heroes and villains. On the spires around the crater, you’ll see murals of the various characters found throughout the area.

13. Thor’s hammer

Thor's Hammer

Anyone familiar with Thor knows about his hammer, Miu Miu. Since Thor is evident in the area, so too is his iconic weapon. You can see the hammer’s head from the outside of the Captain America Diner. Head inside and you’ll see Thor throwing it on one side of the room, and the hammer on the other.

Thor in Captain America Diner

Avid comic book fans will find many additional details to appreciate around Marvel Super Hero Island. Just keep your eyes peeled in this bustling area.
