This Day in History: Booster Wax
It was 23 years ago today that DC released Justice League Europe #32. "What's significant about that," you ask? It's the only time we've ever seen a wax likeness of Booster Gold!
Most of you are probably familiar with Madame Tussauds, a worldwide chain of museums featuring life-like wax sculptures of celebrities like Micheal Jackson, Muhammad Ali, and, um, Thor. In the DCU, Madame Tussauds has a rival organization, Mme. Cloussau's.
In Justice League Europe #32, we are treated to a brief tour of the Paris branch of Mme. Cloussau's wax museum where we can glimpse the wax likenesses of Superman, Batman and Robin, Green Lantern, and, of course, Booster Gold.
It also happens that Mme. Cloussau's is where the Justice League stored the inert robot bodies of the other-worldy Extremists (because where else are you going to store villains responsible for the mass murder of millions?). When you visit Mme. Cloussau's, you get your money's worth!
