This Day in History: Merry Christmas
While DC may not have room for a Christmas book in the New 52 (the heroes are probably all too busy infighting to exchange gifts), we'll always have ghosts of Christmases past.
Way back in the Good Old 52 days of 2008, Booster Gold helped the Justice League celebrate the holiday in DC Universe Holiday Special #1. Whenever the Justice League throws a party, you'll find Booster Gold!
Indicative of Booster's rekindled popularity at the time, our hero appears in not one but two stories in this anthology, albeit in very, very small roles. (He sings! He dances! He appears only in backgrounds!)
No, it's not a great issue. Fortunately, greatness isn't a requirement for Christmas Specials. A bunch of "lesser" heroes get some much deserved spotlight in this issue, and that should be good enough for the price of admission to this party.
