Outatime
Once upon a time, there was a movie in which a young fellow named Marty unintentionally traveled through time and accidentally set in motion a series of events that would unravel his own existence. Marty could only watch helplessly as he was gradually erased from a family photo.
Do you suppose that's happening to Booster Gold?
As we approach the six-month anniversary of DC All-in Special, released last October, Booster remains absent and forgotten by the DC Universe at-large. Given that Booster has played a role in almost every major event in the DCU for the past 40 years, that disappearance from history has to be causing a cascading rewriting of history as we knew it.
What does a DCU look like without a Booster Gold to save the Multiverse from Mister Mind or restore the timeline after Brainiac's Convergence? Do the Manhunters win the Millennium without Booster Gold's interference? Is Ronald Reagan felled by an assassin's bullet?
It's one thing for Booster Gold to be the hero that the world has never heard of. It's another thing altogether for Booster Gold to be a hero who never existed.
