Booster Gold (Darkseid?) is front and center on the Kevin Wada variant cover to tomorrow's Justice League Unlimited #14.

I have no idea if Booster's in that book, but there's a pretty good chance that he will be in exactly two pages each of Flash #28 (Flash vs. Green Lantern), Superman #33 (Lex Luthor vs. Demon), and DC K.O.: Red Hood vs. The Joker, respectively rounds six, seven, and eight of the eight-round Kind Omega tournament. (Yes, I'm aware that I just typed "six, seven." I'm sorry. DC made me do it.)

And since tomorrow is Christmas Eve, I'd be remiss not to point out that DC Universe Infinite has adapted yet another Booster Gold story, "The Santa Copies," originally published in the 2023 holiday anthology DC's 'Twas The 'Mite Before Christmas #1, into vertical smartphone scrolling format as DC Go! Holiday Special 2025 #31. You can re-read it now for free at at dcuniverseinfinite.com. Thanks to J for pointing that out.

The full suite of DC's March 2026 solicitations should be released later today, but yesterday DC.com gave a first look at the "second phase of DC ALL IN" including releasing this Bruno Redondo Open To Order variant cover for Justice League Unlimited #17:

JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED #17
Written by MARK WAID, Art by CLAYTON HENRY, Variant cover by BRUNO REDONDO
$3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock)
ON SALE 3/25/26
In the aftermath of DC K.O., the Justice League has to work even harder to protect mankind—and that means it’s time for new blood to face new challenges! Who will join Wonder Woman and Batman to lead the new JLU?

In addition to that, AIPComics.com writes that Booster Gold will also be playing some part in the coming "Reign of the Superboys" storyline beginning March 11 in Action Comics #1096 (though it's not clear if Booster will be in that issue).

Maybe more will be revealed with the full set of solicitations.

UPDATE: And yes, it was. Booster Gold is on the Skylar Patridge Corner Box variant cover of Action Comics #1096. And that wrestling comic we first learned about back in November is DC X AEW #1, releasing on February 2, 2026. (Why wasn't it in last month's solicitations?) All of which means there will be a whole bunch of Booster in comic shops next year.

You can see the full slate of solicitations and covers at AIPTComics.com.

Over the weekend, my good friend Mike Foster was not particularly sympathetic to my displeasure at how DC has been treating Booster Gold. He reminded me that DC turned his favorite character, Hal Jordan, into a mass murdering super villain before killing him off for several years in the 1990s.

Which is to say that even if you're just talking about comic book storylines, whenever you think you have it pretty bad, it's worth remembering that there's probably somebody else who has it worse.

Speaking of traumatic events, tomorrow we should expect to find Darkseid wearing Booster Gold's skin in brief "watchtower interludes" during rounds four and five of the DC King Omega tournament in Titans #30 (Cyborg vs. Swamp Thing) and DC K.O. Harley Quinn vs. Zatanna #1, respectively.

So read those if you want to. Meanwhile, I'll count my blessings that Warner Brothers' 2011 dud Green Lantern movie wasn't about Booster Gold.
