Booster Gold's Conspicuous Absence
Today is a red letter day in the history of Booster Gold publications!
- 336 days between Superman #124 and Chase #4 (Apr. 1997 to Mar. 1998)
- 303 days between Bat-Mite #4 and now (November 2015 to present)
- 302 days between Martian Manhunter #24 and JLA: Our Worlds At War (Sept. 2000 to July 2001)
DC has just started another reboot Rebirth where it is implied that a character existing outside of DC history has changed history for his own ends. It seems almost every character in the current DCnU has made an appearance, but so far, there's no sign of Booster Gold or Waverider or any of DC's other Time Masters. Isn't this scenario exactly what they are supposed to be preventing?
Geoff Johns is the Chief Creative Officer of DC Comics who publicly professes an affinity for Booster Gold. Yet, whenever the big events happen under Johns' watch, Booster is nowhere to be seen. Why is that?
