I know that Cedar Fair has no legal connections to either DC or Marvel Comics and that CF probably wouldn't spend the money to do so. However, if you could choose whether Kings Island would have DC Comics characters and themed rides (such as Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman) or Marvel Comics characters and themed rides (Spiderman, Hulk, Fantastic Four, etc.), which would you choose???

The first of your two choices is currently under exclusive contract to the other major regional seasonal park player. . . and that isn't likely to change any time soon. The second of your two choices is also under exclusive contract to a major motion picture studio/theme park operator who has parks in Florida and California, and that isn't likely to change either.

Beat me to the punch.

You can actually ride themed rides for all those comic books already.

Actually, I believe Italian Chef beat you both to the punch in his first post. I think it's clear that he understands that neither will come to KI. It's just a hypothetical question.

Never thought about theming a ride to Fantastic Four...that would be cool. Or, better yet, Ghostrider!

I would really prefer a DC comics theme over Marvel, for the sole reason that any attempt at an attraction related to Marvel would almost certainly pale in comparison to the existing themed rides/areas.

I'd like to see a wild mouse type dark ride themed to the new batman movie......oh wait.

And apparently it is oh, wait. That will NOT be open opening day in New Jersey...and approval for the one in Massachusetts was only recently obtained. No word as to Chicago, but I bet it won't open until around Memorial Day either. Of course, Mr. Shapiro will tell us that is to coincide with the movie's opening, and perhaps it is.
