We’ve already noted plans for Dubailand, Dubai’s massive amusement park complex that’s been staked out by Universal Studios and Six Flags. According to the Wall Street Journal, recent deals will to the mix add a Marvel superhero-themed park and a Ferrari-themed park called (you guessed it) Ferrari-Land. Ah, Dubai: The place where kids can be kids and dads can indulge their midlife crises.

I am such a big Marvel Comics fan that I might have to travel all the way to Dubai just to have a little comic book adventure. That would be fun.

As far as Ferrari-Land goes buying a ticket to the amusement park will probably be a close as I could get to owning one of those. A person can dream thou.
