Trivia

 * Delaware is the home state of the most famous fictional city of all time - Metropolis. Although the exact location of Metropolis has become rather nebulous since 1938, writer Paul Kupperberg places Metropolis in the southeastern sector of the state in Sussex County(although it would probably have been more appropriate to place it farther north in Kent County). No actual comic book ever states that Metropolis is located in the state of Delaware.


 * Delware is named for Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr.
