Who Does This Look Like to You?

Guessing game time, folks. Who is this:

Is this Booster Gold?

The above panel by J.J. Birch, Sam De La Rosa, and Nansi Hoolahan from Firestorm: The Nuclear Man, Volume 2, #67, takes place during Millennium #1 (between pages 14 and 15, in fact). It shows a hero with a mask and hair.

Characters who meet that description in Millennium #1 are Black Lightning, Booster Gold, Geo-Force, Hal Jordan, and Katanna. Lightning and Jordan are both also in this panel, and the hair looks unlike Katanna (she is seen elsewhere in this issue). So what do we think? Is this character Booster Gold, or is it Geo-Force? Does this book belong in the chronology of Booster appearances?

Jim Pesl: Mystery Revealed!

Thanks to some investigative work by long-time Booster Gold fan and frequent Boosterrific.com contributor Shawn Baston, we now know who Jim Pesl is. In Shawn's own words:

Talked to Dan Jurgens today. I asked him about "Pesl" that shows up in the artwork. It turns out it's the name of an old college buddy of Norm Rapmund from Grand Rapids, and Norm likes to sneek it in from time to time.

So there we have it. Mystery solved. Thanks, Shawn (and Dan), for getting to the bottom of this.

UPDATE, March 2011: Check out the comment from Anonymous below with a little more clarification regarding Jim Pesl. (Sure, it's not exactly from a verified source, but what would someone going by the tag "Anonymous" have to hide?)
