Booster Gold's role in this story:
Cameo (Booster Gold makes a minor appearance)

Costume Worn: Tangent Universe Booster Gold

Issue Notes: Booster Gold does not appear in this issue, though an alternate Earth counterpart does. The concept of the Tangent Universe was created in the late 1990s by none other than scribe Dan Jurgens, creator of Booster Gold. Even though Jurgens did not write this specific story, it was inevitable that some variation of one of Jurgens' most favored creations would eventually turn up in this parallel world.
