New DC rides coming to Six Flags


Every other year I get to choose where we go on our family vacation. Last time I drug the wife and kids through the tiny town of Metropolis Illinois for the Superman celebration and it was a great time except my families overwhelming fear that we’d be back again and again. Well, now the Clobber-Tron clan has a lot more to fear!

If I get my way we’ll be heading to Six Flags Magic Mountain to ride the 3 new planned rides, 2 of which are DC Comic themed!

Superman: Escape from Krypton
This ride looks fun and I’m a big Superman fan so I’ll climb on this as soon as I get to the park. I promise to take pictures and write up the experience if I survive the trip.

Green Lantern
No doubt planned to promote the movie and sell merchandise, this ride looks like a terrifying cross between a traditional roller-coaster and a rickety old carnival ride. I will stand in awe of how scary it looks and hopefully OVERCOME GREAT FEAR.
