But What About Green Lantern?

Today McSweeney’s published a brief look at the utility of Minneapolis-St. Paul as a base of operations for various well-known superheroes or super teams. Minneapolis may not be Metropolis, but I feel like it has had its share of superheroes. For one, I’m pretty sure Prince counts. After all, Purple Rain and Spider-Man follow essentially the same cinematic formulas. And if none of the various well-known superheroes will work out in the Twin Cities, there are plenty of lesser-knowns that could fight crime in Vikingland… I like the fact that Aquaman was disqualified because Garrison Keillor doesn’t like him. I’m not sure Aquaman would really dig the frozen lakes and rivers anyway.
