At least Booster Gold hasn't entirely disappeared from the DCnU. The mysterious organization Spyral is keeping an eye on our hero, as seen in last week's Grayson #1.

I picked up the book only because long-time Booster booster Shawn Baston clued me into the cameo, and I wasn't disappointed. I have no idea how the events of Grayson are supposed to fit into the post-Flashpoint chronology of Batman, but maybe things like that aren't important anymore. What is important is that the book is fun, beautiful, and — most importantly — contains Booster Gold.

Booster Gold made an appearance in a Smallville Season 11 #12 earlier this month, and I missed it! Thankfully, first-class Booster booster Shawn Baston took me to task for my omission.

Booster Gold Cereal. If it's good enough for Lois Lane, it's good enough for the rest of us!

There has been so much Booster Gold news lately, I haven't had the space to post all the Booster Gold sketches that I've been collecting. I'll start correcting that with this post of from Dan Jurgens himself.

Shawn Baston, (whose name should be familiar to longtime Booster Gold fans and visitors to Boosterrific.com), commissioned this sketch from Dan Jurgens at Spring Con 2013 last month.

Thanks, Shawn, for sharing your new prized possession with us!

After reading the preview for this issue in Monday's post, you've no doubt been waiting on pins and needles to find out how the world responds to a bombing at the United Nations building that destroyed the Justice League International in issue 6. Well, run, don't walk, to your Local Comic Shop to pick up Justice League International #7 and find out why and how "Booster Gold Stands Alone!"

Sharp-eyed Shawn Baston has also pointed out that Booster can be seen in The Art of George Perez, a 256-page coffee table book that Comic Book Resources says should ship tomorrow. However, the book but does not appear on the Diamond Comics shipping list for the week. (DC has changed their upcoming comics website to make it completely useless to see what is shipping when, so that's no help in solving this mystery.) Therefore, Booster may or may not be showing up in this book this week.

Buying either of these books will make Skeets happy.

Eagle-eyed, longtime Booster booster Shawn Baston notes that Booster Gold and the Justice League International appear in today's Legion Lost #5 reacting to a global plague. Unfortunately, it seems that the JLI's skill set isn't the best method for dealing with heart attacks:

Buying this issue won't make Skeets happy, but it could teach you how not to treat heart attack victims.
