Booster booster Morgenstern calls our attention to this reddit post by ablearcher013:

A while back I started looking for a DC comics themed chessboard so I could combine 2 of my great loves (chess and comics). After seeing what was on offer, and not being a fan of any of it, I decided to make my own. How hard could it be... About a year later it's finally done. I used Funko Pops because it was the easiest way to get the characters I needed (and i liked the styling), but they wouldn't readily fit on a standard chessboard... Ok, we'll build our own chessboard! Once I realized how big a chessboard with 3.5"x3.5" squares would be I just decided to turn it into a coffee table. So after about a year of work and around $1000 of investment into it I'm finally done and pretty happy with how it came out...

I agree, M, that's pretty cool.

I find it interesting that Booster Gold was also a white pawn in the 2012 Eaglemoss chess set. Keep on keepin' on, Booster. With enough perseverance (and a little luck), maybe one of these days you can be promoted to queen.
