You wearing green today? Booster Gold is.

from "The Greatest Story Never Told" Justice League Unlimited, 2004

That episode celebrates its tenth anniversary this year. My how time flies when there aren't any Booster Gold comics to read!

Yesterday, a bunch of comic book bloggers posted the work of artist Steve Garcia, who has made a name for himself by turning the silhouettes of our favorite characters into inspirational posters.

I posted Garcia's Booster Gold silhouette back in October, but I didn't want to miss out on all the fun. Click on any of the following links to visit the posts (and maybe find a fun, new comic book blog to follow).

I asked last week's question because I was wondering how many of you were enjoying Arrow. Several of my non-comic reading friends love it, but I just can't seem to get into it.

Last week's poll question: Which series makes the best template for a Booster Gold television show? (50 votes)

I don't consider myself a journalist, but I don't like posting unsubstantiated rumors and avoid them whenever possible. If you sent me an anonymous email and told me that you knew Geoff Johns was going to be bringing back Skeets in an issue of Aquaman, I wouldn't mention it here without some form of corroboration. However, I make an exception from time to time when a rumor promotes something I want to see, like a new Booster Gold series. I trust that in such cases my audience can make a rational decision about the validity of the rumor.

I'm suffering from a string of migraine headaches that are making it very difficult to sit in front of a computer monitor. So for the time being, all you're getting is this panel from Booster Gold, Volume 1, #13.

Nice bedside manner, Nurse Ratched.

I've always loved inker Gary Martin's nearly minimalist approach with this issue. His style has always felt appropriate for the very 1980s adventures of a very 1980s hero, and turned Dan Jurgens' traditional action-adventure layouts into a noir motion picture, especially as we finally get Booster's sad-sack take on his own twisted origin story. You can find some of Gary Martin's work in his gallery on DeviantArt.com.

Booster had to travel to the future for a cure to his illness. Hopefully, some caffeine and aspirin will take care of mine. (It's hard to type without looking at what you're doing.)

If you don't say anything else about Brett Booth, you have to admit he draws a pretty enthusiastic good Booster Gold.

Click on the image above to go to Booth's website, demonpuppy.blogspot.com, where Booth posts a new sketch each Saturday.
