A Booster boosters know, alongside former AEW wrestler Excalibur, Booster Gold (and Skeets!) was a ring-side commentator for all the action in DC X AEW #1.

Given that DC X AEW is a two part mini-series, you might think Booster would play the same role in the second issue. And the good new is that he does, as you can read in the very first narrative box in DC X AEW #2:

Only... he must do it behind the scenes. That narrative box is the only mention of Booster Gold in the entire issue. Booster himself (and Skeets!) is neither seen nor heard.

So if you like wrasslin', go ahead and pick up a copy of DC x AEW #2. But if you're only in it for Booster Gold (or Skeets!), you'll have to get your fix elsewhere.

So, have you seen Cover A for this week's Action Comics #1096?

Yeah, yeah. Sure, there's Ghost Superman and a Superboy who wears Chucks and, for some reason, actual shorts. Great. But that's not the Important part.

This is:

When I last overhauled the design of Boosterrific back in 2018, I added a corner box because corner boxes are awesome. I'm glad that DC has finally gotten that memo. I mean, I'm not thrilled that Action Comics now cost $5 a pop, but if I have to pay that price, it's much better that they have Booster Gold on them.

And if you like that corner box drawn by Skyler Patridge as much as I do, keep your eyes out for Cover E, the "Spot Foil Variant" that is all corner box. Yes, it's $8, but it's selectively shiny!

Buy this issue for its cover and make Skeets happy.

What is most impressive to me about this two-page spread from Justice League Europe #50 is that at the time, Booster Gold's only power was flight. The rest of his technology had been destroyed by Doomsday (including, apparently, his blue boots). Yet here he is charging into battle with just his fists to save Europe from the super-powered army of Russia's newest dictator, Sonar. What a hero!

Yeah, maybe it does look like Booster should be shooting Booster Shots there, doesn't it? Before you suggest that maybe the artist forgot that Booster was powerless and editors had to erase Booster's powers (and opponent) from that panel, know that later, on page 34, Booster gets in a fistfight with Doctor Mid-Night (whose superpower is being blind). A hero, I say!

I also enjoy the dialogue here.

Yeah, deceit and money are useful, but as Sonar will be the first to admit, it helps when you have a mind-control machine.
