Green Lantern is a steel Bolliger & Mabillard stand-up roller coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure. It was originally constructed at Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville, Kentucky in 1997, where it was known as Chang. Upon opening in 1997, it set the world records for this type of coaster in height, drop, speed, length, and number of inversions. It would later be eclipsed by Riddler's Revenge, which opened at Six Flags Magic Mountain a year later. The ride was removed in 2009, and debuted at Six Flags Great Adventure in 2011.
Green Lantern is 4,155 feet (1,266 m) long.[20][21]
Upon leaving the station, the train climbs up the 155-foot (47 m) tall lift hill. Along the hill the Green Lantern oath is played on speakers aligning the steps. At the top, the train enters the signature B&M pre-drop before making a slightly banked 180 degree turnaround. After this, the trains drops 144 feet (44 m) into a 121.58 feet (37.06 m) tall vertical loop. Coming out of the vertical loop, the track rises up to the right into a 103.83 feet (31.65 m) tall diving loop, hugging the first drop of Superman: Ultimate Flight. Riders then rise up and into a diving turnaround over the station. Dropping out of the turnaround, the train then enters a right leaning 72 feet (22 m) tall inclined loop. The inclined loop elements are unique to the three larger B&M standup coasters: Green Lantern, Mantis, and the Riddler's Revenge. After a small hill the train then rises up to the left into the mid-course brake run. Dropping out of the brake run, the train enters a right corkscrew, and turns to the right, weaving through the middle of the diving loop. The track then makes a ground hugging left hand turn, entering a low to the ground second right corkscrew. After a right hand turn, the train makes a final 180 degree left hand turn into the final brake run, before advancing back into the station.
The first half of Green Lantern's layout is a mirror image of Mantis at Cedar Point, with the exception of being taller and longer. The second half is also similar, but Green Lantern has an additional corkscrew after the mid-course brake run, along with an additional turn around before the final brake run.
In 2010 pieces reportedly showed up at Six Flags Great America. The ride was reportedly going to be moved to Six Flags Great America in 2011, with the park even going through the zoning board to win approval,[12] but those plans were later canceled in favor of a water park expansion.[13] Soon after the announcement of the closure of The Great American Scream Machine, rumors began to circulate that the ride would be relocated to Six Flags Great Adventure in 2011. Although Six Flags did not confirm any rumors, a "first look" of the park's new ride layout from the Jackson Township zoning board meeting showed up on JTown Magazine's website, and had Chang's layout.[14]
Late on September 15, 2010, the Asbury Park Press posted an article early, announcing the new ride.[15] The specifications released of the new ride matched those of Chang.[16] It was confirmed that the ride would receive a DC Comics Green Lantern theme, to coincide with the Green Lantern movie due out in 2011.[15] The ride is located in the Boardwalk section of the park. Green Lantern is the third roller coaster to occupy this plot of land, after the Sarajevo Bobsled - which ran at Great Adventure from 1984 to 1988 prior to being moved to Six Flags Great America and then Great Escape - and the Great American Scream Machine, an Arrow Dynamics looping coaster that had occupied this area from 1989 to 2010.[15] On September 16, 2010, Six Flags officially announced the ride.[17] Based on pictures and videos released, the track and trains of the ride were to be painted green with silver accents, with the supports painted black.[17] In December 2010 footers were poured for the ride, with installation of the track beginning in January 2011. On January 24, 2011 the park posted on its Facebook page a picture of the completed lift hill. On the last day of January 2011, the park added a webcam of the ride construction on Facebook to allow park fans and roller coaster enthusiasts to watch the progress. By April 1, 2011 all track was in place. All of the track is painted green, with the exception of the vertical loop, which is painted yellow. Originally, the second corkscrew was the track section that was going to be painted yellow, but the decision was made to switch the scheme to the first loop. The loop is painted yellow because green lantern's enemy is parallax who is yellow.
