My regular wanders across the Internet trolling for Booster Gold references turned up this quiz by Thebiguglyalien from sporcle.com:

Yes, the quiz is probably too easy for Booster boosters, but I suspect the general public might be stumped. They can't tell Booster Gold from Green Lantern.

Grab your test sheets and a red pen; it's time to grade your answers to last week's really hard Booster Gold quiz.

1. Daniel Carter was the fifth-best Term-Life Salesman at Evergreen Insurance. Fifth. Out of six. (52 Week 19, 2006)


2. According to Checkmate, Michelle's middle initial is "A". (Countdown to Infinite Crisis #1, 2005)


3. Jonar Carter walked out on his family when his twins, Michael and Michelle, were 4 years old. (Booster Gold #6, 1986)


4. Building a casino on KooeyKooeyKooey was all Blue Beetle's idea. (Justice League America #33, 1989)


5. The resurrected Max Lord didn't bother to run a smear campaign on Booster Gold because "Booster's life needs no discrediting." (Justice League Generation Lost #2, 2010)


6. As he told Rip Hunter, even Booster Gold knows not to tug on Superman's cape. (Time Masters #2, 1990)


7. Future policeman Broderick found it appalling that 20th-century Americans eat meat, burn fossil fuels, waste fresh water on things like cleaning clothes, bicker over world politics, and freely possess firearms. (Booster Gold #18, 1987)


8. Dirk Davis' daughter was Sarah. (Booster Gold #12, 1986)


9. Superman thought Supernova was "on the level," as an experienced and well-intentioned hero. (He was right, of course.) (52 Week 10, 2006)


10. As a reward for defeating the Royal Flush gang, Batman gave Booster Gold a smile (and membership in the Justice League). (Justice League #4, 1987)

How many did you get right? I told you it was hard. If you knew the answer to even half of those questions, give yourself a Goldstar!

(Thanks again to Erin for letting me repost her quiz.)

4. Whose idea was it to set up a casino on KooeyKooeyKooey?


5. When Max Lord returned from the dead why didn't he make Booster look bad like the rest of his teammates?

Given Booster Gold's current comics hiatus, this is a good time to look back at his publication history. I could simply tell you which 10 characters Booster has shared the most on-panel appearances with, but wouldn't it be more fun to guess?

The characters are listed below in descending order of quantity of appearances (totals in parentheses). I'll go ahead and give you the first one. (We all know who number 1 is!) Don't worry; suffixes don't matter for any of the remaining characters.

1. Blue Beetle II (212 shared appearances)
2. ________________ (144)
3. ________________ (140)
4. ________________ (117)
5. ________________ (115)
6. ________________ (107)
7. ________________ (105)
8. ________________ (94)
9. ________________ (87)
10. _______________ (82)

Good luck!
