If you enjoy role-playing or fantasy novels (or supporting Booster Gold website webmasters), please consider visiting www.CentralKingdomsChronicles.com, where you'll find a free preview of the first chapter of each of my books. You'll also find links to purchase both paperback and Kindle eBooks at Amazon.com.

(Just so you're aware, the price of my books will be going up on November 1. So if you've ever considered buying one but haven't yet done so, you might want to pull the trigger before the end of October.)

Thank you for your support.

Stone Arch Books has just released a new series of illustrated children's books based on the Justice League Unlimited franchise. If you ask me, these $5.95 books are worth the price for the covers alone.

(I admit it. I'm a sucker for Starro.)

But that's not the best part. The best part is that each book includes a "roll call" of Justice Leaguers. Guess who's on that list? That's right! It's everybody's favorite dynamic duo, Booster Gold and Blue Beetle!

The illustrations for the books were done by Tim Levins (who you may remember for illustrating 2012's The Man of Gold). Levins has been posting his drawings of the individual Leaguers on DeviantArt.com so you can see just how good his Booster Gold looks. Check it out:

Now that's Boosterrific!

You can find all four books in the series (Amazo and the Planetary Reboot, Darkseid and the Fires of Apokolips, Injustice Gang and the Deadly Nightshade, and Starro and the Cyberspore) at your Local Comic Shop and fine booksellers everywhere. And, of course, Amazon.com.

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Black Friday, everybody.

Not too long ago, there was a brief discussion in the Boosterrific Forum about an apparent price increase in Booster Gold back issues. At the time, I assumed that it couldn't have anything to do with a Booster Gold television show because it had been a few years since there was any news on that front. But when have comic book prices ever been based on reality?

The website Comic Book Scalping last week recommended Booster Gold, Volume 1, #1 as a target issue for speculators looking to buy low and sell high.

A year ago, collectible copies of the issue (very fine or better) could be had for only $3, but now ComicsPriceGuide.com currently values those same issues at about $30 or more. On eBay.com, you'll find high-grade slabbed copies going for over $200!

I can't think of any reason that Booster's first appearance is going up in price so quickly other than the persistent rumors that he might be coming to television. So hang on to your copies, Booster boosters. Speculators will be beating down our doors if DC ever gets that much-anticipated television series off the ground!

Back in June I told you to expect Booster Gold as a chess piece and as a deck-building game card. There was one other game I hesitated to mention because I was waiting for proof of Booster's inclusion. Turns out I just wasn't looking hard enough.

In this youtube demo from E3 by kNIGHTWING01, Booster's Nu52 costume is clearly included in the game. That means your avatar will be able to cosplay as Booster in the upcoming Scribblenauts Unmasked video game from 5th Cell. Hooray!

The game will be available on Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, and Windows PCs on the 24th of this month. For more details, visit www.Scribblenauts.com. (Thanks to Erin of Exploring the Time Lab for finding that video).
