The city needs heroes. Who will take on the next mission?
High above the streets, among towering buildings and busy rooftops, extraordinary adventures are unfolding.
What is happening in the city centre? Who needs help? What special abilities do the heroes have? How will they work together to solve a new challenge?
With PicTub “Superheroes”, children can imagine their own answers and turn a detailed illustration into an original adventure.
The poster features a fictional city filled with skyscrapers, streets, rooftops, costumed superheroes, dynamic action scenes, and visual elements inspired by comic books.
Every part of the picture offers something new to explore. Children can begin with a favourite character, continue with the surrounding buildings, and discover the smaller details throughout the cityscape.
A giant poster that becomes a comic-book world
PicTub offers more than an ordinary colouring page.
The 100 × 70 cm format provides space for exploring a large illustration filled with characters and exciting scenes.
The poster can be spread out on the floor, placed on a table, or attached to a suitable wall using the included adhesive, after checking surface compatibility.
Children can return to the artwork over several sessions, gradually completing the city and developing their own superhero adventures.
Once finished, the poster can become a personalised decoration for their room.
What's included in the PicTub Superheroes set?
-
One 100 × 70 cm giant superhero-themed colouring poster.
-
A set of 12 markers.
-
Special adhesive for attaching the poster to suitable surfaces.
-
A tube for storing and carrying the artwork.
The markers are described as washable from most fabrics, while the adhesive is designed for convenient attachment and removal. Results may vary depending on the fabric or surface, so testing on a small, inconspicuous area is recommended.
Create your own superhero adventure
One of the most engaging aspects of this poster is the opportunity to invent original characters and stories.
Children can give their heroes names, choose their special abilities, and decide which challenges they need to overcome.
One superhero might rescue someone in difficulty, another might protect the city, and an entire team could join forces to solve a complicated problem.
Being a hero does not have to mean having extraordinary powers. Courage, kindness, ingenuity, and cooperation can also become part of the story.

What makes someone a real hero?
The superhero theme can also inspire meaningful conversations about bravery, responsibility, and helping others.
Parents can ask questions such as “Do you need superpowers to help someone?”, “Why is teamwork important?” or “How could a hero solve a problem without using force?”.
These conversations can encourage children to think about the choices and actions that make a positive difference.
A comic-book story beyond the colouring page
As children colour, they can invent their own storyline.
Who is hiding behind the mask? What is happening on the rooftop? Which mission will come next?
Each scene can become part of a larger adventure, and children can even use the illustration as inspiration for an original comic-book script.
A shared creative activity for the whole family
Thanks to its generous format, several children or family members can colour the poster at the same time.
One child might work on the superheroes, another on the buildings, while others complete the streets and smaller details.
Every contribution becomes part of one shared creative project.
A keepsake to enjoy after colouring
Once completed, the poster can be displayed or carefully rolled up and stored in its tube.
Children can revisit their artwork and remember the characters and stories they invented during the activity.
Important: young children should use markers and adhesive with adult supervision. Before attaching the poster to a wall, test the adhesive on an inconspicuous area.
PicTub “Superheroes” turns colouring into an exciting city adventure where every child can invent characters, missions, and original stories, discovering that imagination, courage, and helping others can be extraordinary powers too.
