In 2002, Six Flags took over the lease of Jazzland (which opened in 2000) and re-branded the park Six Flags New Orleans a year later.[1] With the park's new ownership, Six Flags added the new themed section DC Comics Super Heroes Adventures for 2003 season, themed after the DC Comics characters. Most of all the new attractions for the themed area were relocated from Thrill Valley, a theme park in Japan.

After Hurricane Katrina (2005-2025)

When Hurricane Katrina hit the park on August 29, 2005, the park was severely flooded, causing the park to close down indefinitely.[2] In 2007, Six Flags began the process of moving rides from the park to their other properties. Batman: The Ride was the first ride to leave the park, and was taken to Six Flags Fiesta Texas, where it was refurbished and reopened as Goliath on April 18, 2008.[3][4] The park has been closed since 2005 and is no longer a Six Flags park, as it is now owned by the city of New Orleans.[5] Despite Six Flags losing the park's lease to the city in 2009, all Looney Tunes and DC Comics theming stayed within the park itself. In 2024 demolition had begun on the property and the remaining rides in the area were demolished in November of 2024.
