New Release: Corgi Booster Gold

Reminder: today's the day that you can get your hands on Trinity: Daughter of Wonder Woman #1 with the previously mentioned Booster Gold corgi on the cover.

While you're at your Local Comic Shop, you might want to consider checking out Action Comics #1087, which features a guest appearance by Booster Gold's 25th-century employer, the Space Museum (as can be seen in the preview available at AIPTcomics.com).

And as if that's not enough excitement for one day, be aware that also out today is Fire and Ice: When Hell Freezes Over #3, which makes it explicitly clear that "I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League" (long treated as an out-of-continuity tale) in JL Classified in 2005 is canon in the modern Rebirth-era DCU.

Now if only we could get Booster Gold himself to actually appear in a comic book again...

Coming Soon: New History

DC released its monthly solicitations for August late last week, and Booster Gold (and Skeets!) was seen again, this time on the $9.99 variant Scott Koblish wraparound cover for New History of the DC Universe #3.

(I'm a little embarrassed to admit how many of these characters I can name on sight.)

NEW HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE #3
Written by MARK WAID
Art by DOUG MAHNKE and DAN JURGENS
Legacy variant cover by SCOTT KOBLISH
$5.99 US | 48 pages | 3 of 4 | Wraparound variant $9.99 US (card stock)
ON SALE 8/27/25

Following the cataclysmic events of Crisis on Infinite Earths, the DC Universe is forever changed. Torches are passed as legacy heroes like Wally West embrace the mantles of their predecessors, heroes like Hal Jordan are tempted by darkness, and the Justice League faces formidable new threats such as Doomsday, Black Hand, and Superboy-Prime. Narrator Barry Allen recaps these events through his return, ending with the cataclysmic Flashpoint!

Given that this issue is focused entirely on events that took place between Crisis on Infinite Earths and Flashpoint (a period of time in which its narrator, Barry Allen, was *ahem* dead), plus that fact that Dan Jurgens credited on art, I think it's very, very likely that Booster will also be seen between the covers as well.

Also in the solicitations is a third volume of Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle reprints, which will include all of Jaime's backup stories from Booster Gold volume 2 and, importantly for Booster boosters, his Blackest Night team-up with Booster Gold against... Dead Ted! (As originally presented in Booster Gold Volume 2 #26 and #27.)

A complete list of August solicitations can be found at AIPTcomics.com. Thanks to all who made sure I saw these.

King of the One-Shots

It's been so long since Booster Gold appeared in a monthly DC Comics solicitation that I've forgotten how I used to format these posts, but since Booster is actually on the cover of a comic book for the first time since October.... No, wait. Scratch that. He's on three covers for the same book:

CVR A CIAN TORMEY

CVR B JORGE FORNES CARD STOCK VAR

CVR D FERNANDO BLANCO CARD STOCK VAR

And, for good measure, there's also a Gold Beetle cover:

CVR C NATHAN SZERDY CARD STOCK VAR

JUSTICE LEAGUE: DARK TOMORROW SPECIAL #1
Written by MARK WAID and MARC GUGGENHEIM
Art and cover by CIAN TORMEY
Variant cover by JORGE FORNES, NATHAN SZERDY, FERNANDO BLANCO
$5.99 US, 48 pages, Variant $5.99 US (card stock), on sale 7/30/25

In the wake of the We Are Yesterday crossover epic, a mysterious Quantum Quorum has emerged… stalked by a lethal enemy that takes no prisoners. The League deputizes a rag tag group of time displaced heroes like Batman Beyond, Gold Beetle, and Helena Wayne to fill the void left behind by the Time Masters and save the quorum from the mysterious threat that’s picking off time-travelers one by one. These Legends of Tomorrow are the only ones standing in the way of this cascading chronal Armageddon with the past, present, and future teetering on the brink in this oversized special leading to the next big DC All In event!

Believe it or not, it has never happened that Booster has appeared on three standard-order variants for the same issue, so I have some re-coding to do before the Boosterrific Database can handle displaying this once-in-four-decades scenario. Whether you decide to buy all the covers or just one, it's still nice for Booster boosters to have something to look forward to for a change.

Any Reason to Buy Comics in June

The June 2025 DC Comics solicitations are here... and Booster Gold is not.

Booster booster Rob Snow thinks there's "a chance" we might see Booster in Justice League Unlimited #8, which is the finale of the "We Are Yesterday" crossover story. That would be nice, wouldn't it? (It would certainly make Tiffany happy, as she has been promoting that theory for months.)

If you want to read the solicitation text for Justice League Unlimited yourself to set your own level of hopefulness, you can read the full list yourself at AIPTComics.com.
