Buy Booster Gold

From Panel to Screen

Russ Burlingame, the Lois Lane of Booster Gold journalism, recently posted his own picks for the Booster Gold stories best suited for adaptation into a live action movie. His list included:

  • Booster Gold Volume 1 #6 ("To Cross the Rubicon"): the origin story of Booster Gold. Every super hero's first movie has to be his origin story, right?
  • Booster Gold Volume 1 #10 ("Death Grip of the 1000"): Booster Gold vs The 1000. It was his first comic adventure!
  • Booster Gold Volume 2 #41 ("Booster - Busted!"): The trial of Michael "Booster" Carter for crimes against time travel. We're long overdue for the first super-hero courtroom drama.
  • Justice League International #34 ("Club JLI"): Blue and Gold hijinks on KooeyKooeyKooey. Four words: Fire in a bikini.
  • 52: Booster Gold saves the Multiverse. This sounds ambitious, but keep in mind that this entire story took place by design without DC's heavy hitters.
  • Booster Gold Volume 2 #1 ("52 Pick-Up"): Booster Gold as The Greatest Hero You've Never Heard Of. Pretty much the same as the current NBC television show Timeless. If that's a hit....

You can read Burlingame's justification for these stories at ComicBook.com.

And once you've done that, come back here and vote for your favorite!
