Shameless Self-Promotion
In the true spirit of Booster Gold, I interrupt today's blog-cast to bring to your attention the Kickstarter campaign for Cellbloc Studios' video game Dungeon Wars.
Who is Cellbloc Studios, you ask? In it we are primarily several of the people I work with in my day job and me. We've decided to make a video game, and we're trying to scrounge up the capital to get the ball rolling.
If you've enjoyed the content at Boosterrific.com, please consider donating at least $1 to our Kickstarter campaign as a way of showing your thanks. I'd really appreciate it.
You may note that I've already changed the "real" ads here on the site to those promoting the Kickstarter campaign. They'll be sticking around for the duration. I'm sure I'll be mentioning this again before we reach the finish line on November 28. Sure, that seems like a lot of advertising, but don't you agree that's the way Booster would want it?
[UPDATE 10/25/12: Never mind. See Friday's post for details.]

Weekend Site Updates
Several changes to Boosterrific over the weekend. Most were minor and won't be noticed by anyone. However, the advertisements and reprint collections have been split out of Out of Continuity list and given their own lists. (Ads here and trades here.) Hopefully, this will make the information that people want to see more easily accessible, especially as Boosterrific becomes more aggressive in categorizing and cataloging Booster Gold appearances.
On an entirely related note, remember that Boosterrific is always looking to expand the database of Booster Gold advertisements. If you come across an appearance of Booster in a comic book, drop a line to webmaster at Boosterrific.com. If you find a publication not already in the database, you'll get credit on the site. Known advertisements including Booster Gold are for the first appearance of Booster Gold (1985), Who's Who Update (1987), Armageddon 2001 (1991), Eclipso: The Darkness Within (1992), AIDS public service announcements (1993-1994), DC subscription ads (1995?), and Booster Gold Volume 2 (2006). Booster may have also appeared in ads for Millennium (1988), so keep your eyes open in any post-Crisis DC comics. Thanks!

Boosterrific Needs Your Help!
I've decided I need to add all issues from 1985-1986 containing DC house advertisements for the original Booster Gold series to the database here at Boosterrific. (It was an early decision not to include them, and I'm just now reversing myself.) I know that the ad was a DC house ad that ran in books cover-dated February 1986. However, I don't know if it ran in every book that month. For example, the DC house ad on page 12 of Booster Gold #1 that month was for 'Mazing Man. Therefore, I need to put my hands on every book released that month and confirm its presence. The following books have been confirmed to carry the house ad:
- Ambush Bug Stocking Stuffer #1
- Batman #392
- Batman and the Outsiders, Vol. 1, #30
- Crisis on Infinite Earths #11
- DC Challenge #4
- Detective Comics #559
If anyone of you out there reading this were to come across any other issues, please let me know. You will, of course, receive proper credit for any instances that you turn up that are not already in the database. Thanks for the help.
