Morgenstern recently spotted this beauty dressed as our favorite hero:

YouTube is full of the strangest things. Check out this video of Drawings By Jhoan re-drawing this sketch by Todd Nauck.

That's a pretty good freehand duplication, even if I don't know why we're watching it.

Thanks to Morgenstern for finding this video and Todd Nauck for making art worthy of being copied.

Dressing up like Booster Gold and hanging out with your best friend sure looks like a lot of fun.

Recorded at New York Comic Con 2015 by BYB FILMS. Cosplayers unknown. Video spotted on Youtube and brought to my attention by Morgenstern. Thanks to all.

Russ Burlingame informs us via ComicBook.com that the first two issues of Booster Gold Volume 1 are now available on Comixology.com. In Full Color!

When they were first released back in 1986, these issues had a cover price of 75¢. Adjusting for inflation, that's $1.63 in 2015 money. So why is Comixology charging $1.99 each when all the hard work was done and paid for 30 years ago? Hopefully the answer is because they want to back up a truckload of royalty payments to creator Dan Jurgens' mailbox.

Of course, $1.99 looks like a great price compared to some speculators, who are asking $50 or more for original printings of that first issue. Most comics readers probably don't want to have to choose between reading more about Booster Gold or eating lunch for a week.

So whether you're a Grumpy Old Man like me or a hip millennial who prefers her comics on the go, a $1.99 comic book is a steal in the year 2015. So head over to Comixology.com and get yourself a digital copy of the classic debut of history's greatest hero. Booster Gold would want you to.

(Thanks to the ever alert Morgenstern for calling this to my attention.)

Found by Morgenstern on Youtube: New World Comics presents the Death and Resurrection of Superman. Booster Gold shows up at about the 1:36 mark because you can't call it Doomsday without Booster Gold.

I love it. Who needs big budgets when you've got such great story and characters? ("You better get out of here before I mess up the me part of your face.")

Thanks to Morgenstern for passing it along. Bigger thanks to all involved at New World Comics for making it happen in the first place.
