Booster Gold is seen as a member of the Justice League International in a flashback image. Also pictured are Batman, Black Canary, Blue Beetle, Captain Atom, Fire, G’Nort, Guy Gardner, Ice, Martian Manhunter, Mister Miracle, and Rocket Red #4. This picture does not represent any active roster. Black Canary left the League (and soon after that costume) following Justice League International #13. Ice Maiden and Green Flame joined the team in Justice League International #15, but they wouldn't wear these particular costumes until after the series had been renamed, in Justice League America #31.
