What the Flashpoint?
WonderCon 2013 was this past weekend, and DC went ahead and made it official that Booster Gold will be guest-starring in All-Star Western #19-21. Our pal Russ Burlingame at ComicBook.com reports writer Jimmy Palmiotti's quote from the "DC All Access Panel" yesterday:
In the next issue of Jonah Hex, we have a special guest... running around with Jonah Hex will be none other than Booster Gold.
You can read details from the whole panel at Newsarama.com, but the fact that Booster will be in All-Star Western isn't really new news. However, something else I found reported from WonderCon is a little more exciting.
AnotherMealTicket.com reports that the "f" in the "WTF" issues appearing this month from DC will stand for "Flashpoint," and it seems that Booster won't just be travelling across the DCU, he'll be remembering it:
...Inside sources at DC were overheard this weekend at WonderCon 2013 saying we should expect to see plenty of the mysterious Pandora and finally hear Booster Gold admit that he remembers the old DC Universe!
It's about time! Thanks to MetalWoman and Morgenstern for posting the news in the Boosterrific Forum.
UPDATE 2013-04-01: More info at BleedingCool.com.

Safety First
Ok, so everything seems to be working around here. How about we give a poll a shot?
Winner and still champion of your Local Comic Shop's bargain bin, Extreme Justice!
Last week's poll question: ( votes)
In recent months, the NFL has been cracking down on player safety in the light of new evidence about the long-term damage of concussions. If football is no longer a safe sport for our kids to play, maybe Booster Gold should consider white-washing his past to be a better role-model.

Server Migration in Progress
I've had enough! So I'm moving the site to a new server. If this makes everything faster, the problem was the old server. If nothing changes, the problem is the scripts that run Boosterrific.com. We'll know the answer soon enough....

New Releases: Batwing Vol. 2
Now that we are 99.9% sure that Booster will be appearing in next month's All-Star Western #19, you may want to pick up today's All-Star Western #18 so that you have an idea what's going on in that title. Then you can hit the ground running next month when Booster arrives to save the day.
While it's a long shot that Booster would appear in today's All-Star Weatern, Booster's appearance in today's release of Batwing Volume 2: In the Shadow of The Ancients is a sure thing. This trade collects Batwing issues #7-12 and 0. You may recall that Booster Gold and the JLI assisted Batwing in Africa in Batwing #12. Batwing quit the JLI in its very next issue. Maybe Batwing knew how bad the Justice League International Annual was going to be, so he got out while the getting was good.
