Booster Gold's role in this story:
Cameo (Booster Gold makes a minor appearance)
Costume Worn: MARK I power-suit
Issue Notes: The events of this issue take place immediately after the conclusion of the Millennium event. This is the first appearance of Booster Gold since Millennium #8. Though Booster has no lines in his brief appearance in this issue, he is seen accompanying the Justice League.
Boosterrific Review: Blue Beetle battles Chronos in this cliche of a super hero comic book featuring dinosaurs and deathtraps which are sadly not quite as exciting as this sentence would suggest. A passable, but not historically memorable, issue.
Boosterrific Rating: Gold Standard.
Average Fan Rating: (1 vote)
Even with what should have been a fun story, the Blue Beetle comic really did not take off. This comic was dull and did nothing in the long run for the character or the series. Any surprise the plug was pulled not long after?
