ANNOTATIONS

Image Copyright DC Comics

Page 5, panel 3
In the New York JLI Embassy, Booster Gold and Blue Beetle II watch Mister Miracle (called "Mister Miraculous") on the news. Beetle is furious that Miracle gave them so much grief over almost exposing his secret identity in Mister Miracle, Vol. 2, #7, only to turn around and reveal himself so soon afterwards. Booster is considerably more laissez-faire about the situation, preferring to good-naturedly heckle Miracle's television appearance.

Page 6, panel 2
Appearance of Maxi-Man. Maxi-Man first appeared in Mister Miracle, Vol. 2, #9, attempting to rescue people from a fire. This is the first time that he and Booster appear in the same issue. Though they do not meet, it will not be the last time the two show up between the same pages.

REVIEWS

Boosterrific Review: An absurdist's tour through the private life of a small-town super hero turns out to be not quite as exciting as one might hope, but not as droll as one could expect.

Len Wein was just a crummy writer. I was an avid Blue Beetle collector and each issue I would hope and dream that there would be something compelling or a villain with some sort of verve or interest or intrigue, or ANYTHING! Instead we got lame weirdo after wierdo, no ongoing plots nothing to bite your teeth into. He killed BB and he killed MM...

The Mr. Miracle suburb angle was interesting but it did not quite work-as this issue shows.
