ROYGGGBBIV

Oh, shoot. I almost forgot to post something today. See, I was writing a script to help me identify where the current drought of new Booster Gold adventures sits historically* — I had an old script that did this years ago, but DC continuity has only gotten more convoluted since then and so has how the Boosterrific Database tracks it — and I lost track of time.

The good news is that Rob Snow has me covered. Or at least he tried to.

Earlier this week, to counter the lack of official Booster Gold art coming from DC, Rob forwarded me a picture of the JLI drawn as tweenagers that has been making the rounds on a particular website. But try as I might, I cannot identify the artist, and that anti-social media site won't even let me see the posts unless I log in. And since I'm not going to do that, I'm not going to share the art here at this time. (If you ever identify that artist, let me know, Rob.)

The good news is that while I was trying to identify the artist for that, I found this, a totally awesome color wheel by Melonnabar at Between Two Worlds on Tumblr.com (which still seems quite happy to share):

Pretty awesome, right? Yeah, I'd say that all worked out.

*For the record, "175 days" is 11th on the all-time list and only two weeks from breaking into the top ten. But let's not focus on the negative today, okay? Color Wheel!

Any Reason to Buy Comics in June

The June 2025 DC Comics solicitations are here... and Booster Gold is not.

Booster booster Rob Snow thinks there's "a chance" we might see Booster in Justice League Unlimited #8, which is the finale of the "We Are Yesterday" crossover story. That would be nice, wouldn't it? (It would certainly make Tiffany happy, as she has been promoting that theory for months.)

If you want to read the solicitation text for Justice League Unlimited yourself to set your own level of hopefulness, you can read the full list yourself at AIPTComics.com.

My Favorite Pages: Justice League America 61

My Favorite Pages

Justice League America #61 officially kicked off the Dan Jurgens era of the Justice League International. And it has a lot of fun moments, from villains and weapons originally appearing in the Silver Age Justice League of America, to the opening panel callback to the Giffen/DeMatteis Justice League #1, to having Booster Gold return to the team full time, to seeing Superman put Maxwell Lord in his place, to reading Blue Beetle accuse Weapons Master of pulling "a big boner."

Choosing a single favorite page in this one was especially difficult because while I enjoyed many of the panels and bits of dialogue, they are pretty evenly distributed, meaning few pages stand out as a whole. So I ultimately settled on page 3, which introduces Maxima, mostly because I like the flow of the art from panel to panel, especially how Maxima's hair meanders through those last two panels.

I also like that Booster Gold comes across as the rational one on this new team. Someone's got to be the adult in the room (at least when Superman isn't around).
