Blue and Gold Converging
Over the weekend, Russ Burlingame of ComicBook.com uncovered a clue to Convergence on Dan DiDio's Facebook page.
"Blue Beagle" and "Rooster Gold" animal heads aside — are we going to see a Blue and Gold crossover with Captain Carrot's Zoo Crew? — what's the rest of that picture from? Says detective Burlingame:
This also wouldn't be an old image that this reporter simply doesn't recognize. Ted Kord has only ever shared a single panel with this version of Booster Gold before -- in Futures End: Booster Gold. That issue saw Booster careening out of control through DC's Multiverse, before ending up "home" in the pre-Flashpoint DC Universe. The armored costume -- generally depicted with an A.R.G.U.S. emblem on it, although not here -- first appeared in the Justice League International Annual #1 in the New 52, meaning that Ted Kord was not a superhero and shared no history with Booster Gold when that look debuted.
So is this image teasing a Blue and Gold reunion in the mainstream DCnU? I guess we'll find out as we get closer to April 2015.

Booster Gold Saves Multiverse in Convergence?
I support Booster Gold wherever he appears. I'm glad to see that most of you do, too.
Last week's poll question: Are you planning on buying Justice League 3000 #12? (49 votes)
Perhaps you noticed earlier this week when Entertainment Weekly broke the news that Booster Gold was getting his own Convergence crossover mini-series (penned by Dan Jurgens, as many expected). But did you see the cover?
That's right, it's Skeets! Finally, Booster's robot sidekick makes it to the New 52. Like everyone else. Skeets also gets a New 52 makeover.

Booster Gold Spotted in Secret Stash
First-class Booster booster Shawn Baston sees Booster Gold everywhere, including a recent episode of Kevin Smith's Comic Book Men.
In the episode that aired November 23, 2014, you can easily spot Booster Gold, Volume 2, #1 and #12 there between Ming Chen and Walt Flanagan. If you've got great vision, you might be able to make out issue #11 on the left behind Ming's head.
I don't know how Comic Book Men runs its store, but you can spot the same issues on the wall behind the customer selling Ultraman dolls earlier in the episode. Is the Secret Stash comic shop filled to the gills with Booster Gold comics, or were these issues just convenient to fill some space the day they were filming? I'm guessing the latter.
In any event, this AMC television show has been added to the Boosterrific list of Other Media appearances. Thanks for the catch, Shawn!
