    Superman Ride of Steel Goes Bizarro at Six Flags New England
    I’ve been nervous to even write about the new Bizarro at Six Flags New England. Obviously, the revamped Intamin hyper coaster isn’t really new. It’s another in a line of renovated roller coasters in Six Flags’ new era of roller coaster makeovers. Why would I be nervous? Superman Ride of Steel is my #1 ranked roller coaster and I consider it the best roller coaster I’...

      Superman Ride of Steel Goes Bizarro?
      For the most popular super hero of all time, Superman has the absolute worst villians. His best villain is easily Lex Luthor and he’s just a criminal mastermind constantly after real estate (see the plots for the Superman, Superman 2, and Superman Returns movies). So as Six Flags New England announced an upgrade for the best steel roller coaster on the planet, then repainted it purple and c...

        Lex Luthor Coaster Coming to Six Flags New England
        Six Flags New England’s Superman Takes a Villainous Turn I’m going to ‘go out on a limb’ and unofficially announce Six Flags New England’s newest roller coaster: Lex Luthor. From the hints being dropped on the viral marketing site, Clawshun Industries, and the ride’s new purple paint job it’s pretty obvious that Superman Ride of Steel will be re-themed as ...

The Wooden Coaster Poll resulted in Holiday World’s Voyage at the top for the second straight year. Click here to see the rest of the results from wooden poll. Mitch’s coaster poll is lengthy and complicated enough that Robb Alvey from ThemeParkR...

            Bizarro (Superman) @ Six Flags New England
            Bizarro (Formerly Superman: Ride of Steel) at Six Flags New England A Heroic Hyper Coaster That Lives Up to Its Lofty Reputation I don’t give out a lot of 10’s. But this ladies and gentlemen, deserves a 10. It’s reputation was huge and I figured it would be better than the other coasters by the same name, I just didn’t know it was going to be THAT good. Thanks to the unimag...
