Whatever happened to Booster Gold cosplayers?

A few years ago, when Booster was at the crest of his all-time popularity under the pen of Geoff Johns, there was a Booster at almost ever convention. Now we're lucky to spot a Booster once or twice a year.

The only costume I've seen so far in 2015 was worn by Mitch Slevc. But what we've lost in quantity, Mitch is making up in quality.

Back in February, Mitch was named king of the 2015 Nerd Prom in Denver, Colorado, when he attended dressed as Booster Gold. Pay attention, cosplayers: if you want to win, you should dress for the Gold!

I want it all!

Last week's poll question: ( votes)

Here at Boosterrific.com, I track all Booster Gold appearances. That includes reprints, whether in comics, trades, or $99 hardcover "omnibuses." Given that DC just released a 912-page collection of all the Futures End one-shots, I wondered if anyone here might buy it just to get another copy of Booster Gold: Futures End?

Thanks for voting. I'm not saying any of these things are going away, I'm just trying to figure what my focus should be.

A new year means new hope to see Booster Gold return to regular action in the DCnU. What do you wish for in the coming year?
