7 Clevver Things
Clevver.com has released their list of suggested "needs" for a Blue Beetle/Booster Gold movie.
I applaud Joslyn Davis' enthusiasm, but I have to say that her experience with the characters doesn't exactly match what I've been reading. Among other things, Skeets isn't spelled with a "z," and I'd never call Gotham University's fallen star quarterback Michael "Booster" Carter a "nobody in the future."
But I don't mean to nitpick. I'll be happy enough if Warner Brothers ever manages to actually make a Blue Beetle and Booster Gold movie.
You can find this video in its native habitat at Clevver.com.

Booster Gold Coming to Xbox One
It's been five years since the debut of DC Universe Online, the free-to-play MMORPG set in the DC Universe. Booster Gold has been the game's tour guide since the beginning, and both he and the game are still going strong.
To celebrate, the game is introducing new content based on the DC Legends of Tomorrow television show. The game will also finally be debuting on the Xbox One, removing the final obstacles for any Booster Gold fans who haven't played the game yet. (What have you been waiting for?)
Read more about these celebration plans at ComicBookResoures.com.

Storing Them the Right Way
While you're waiting for new Booster Gold comics, perhaps you'd like a better way to display the ones you have. The artists at ComicBindingPro might be able to create what you're looking for.
Those are hardback bindings they have created out of Booster Gold (and Blue Beetle) trades and floppies. That's something you'll never be able to do with digital comics. If you'd like to see more of their work or get a quote for your own custom bindings, visit comicbindingpro.com.

Art of the (Gold) Brick
Both fine art and LEGO lovers have united in praise of the work of artist Nathan Sawaya. When he joined forces with DC Comics to create his "The Art of the Brick: DC Comics" exhibitions, we knew we would see some cool stuff. How little did we realize just how cool it would be.
Yes, that's Booster Gold built entirely out of LEGO bricks. Booster is just one of many, many DC Comics figures, covers, and other inspired pieces (including a life-sized Batmobile) now on exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney, Australia.

How great is it that Booster Gold, a former janitor inspired by a museum exhibition of heroes to travel back in time to become a hero himself, now has his own statue in a museum display of heroes? That's Boosterrific!
The exhibition runs through April in Sydney before moving on to the next leg of its worldwide tour (wherever that might be). So if you happen to be in Sydney before May, drop in and say hello to our favorite hero. Otherwise, cross your fingers. Booster Gold may be coming to a museum near you.
Thanks to The Blot and iron_paw for bringing this amazing sculpture to our attention.
