I can't think of a good intro here. I suspect that you're either old enough to remember the Mayfair Games DC Heroes Role-Playing Game from the late '80s or you're not. If you're not, you probably don't care about this, but if you are, Cryptozoic Games, publisher of the DC Deck-Building Game, has launched a Kickstarter Campaign to reprint the DC Heroes Role-Playing Game. All of it.

Even the Booster Gold module All that Glitters that has the Booster Gold Board Game on the back.

Especially that.

For a better idea of how much Booster Gold might be in there, and it's an appropriate amount corresponding to Booster's place in the DCU in 1985-89, I suggest you follow this link to Boosterrific Blog posts going back to the Mayfestivus comic-book blogger crossover of 2010.

(Grumpy Old Man Digression: Remember when the Internet used to be fun? I even hosted a shockwave format single-player version of the All that Glitters Booster Gold Board Game here at Boosterrific.com back before Apple killed Flash Player. Ah, those were the days.)

It sure looks like it'll cost well upwards of $400 to get reprints of all the Booster Gold-related materials. Yeah, that's expensive, but DC isn't giving Booster Gold fans much else to buy these days, and I've got to spend that money on something, right?

Anyway, this is definitely something to be thankful for this year!

Remember that time Superman killed Booster Gold?

Ask yourself: is Superman mad that he murdered Booster or that Booster called him a m-monsterrr?

Sheesh, 1991 was a rough year for Superman. First Armageddon 2001 suggests he's going to be a murdering tyrant in the future, then Adventures of Superman #479 makes him a murdering tyrant in the present.

Don't worry too much about Booster's death there. He doesn't really die. Or, more accurately, that's not really Booster Gold. It's not even really Superman. Red Kryptonite does some strange things to Kryptonians.

Today's the day to head to your Local Comic Shop to pick up Action Comics #1076 Cover E "McFarlane Toys Card Stock Variant"! You know, the one with a Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figure on it.

It was the Blot who first pointed out this cover to us. No coincidence that it was also the Blot who ordered a whole case of Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures.

If there is one flaw with those Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures, it's that it doesn't come with Skeets. Well, Blot has found a solution for that, too.

There’s a guy on Etsy making awesome 3D printed accessories for McFarlane Toys' Super Powers toy line. He just made a Skeets that attaches to the back of Booster's neck (sort of how capes go on). He sells a painted and unpainted version. Got mine yesterday and it's fantastic! Pics of mine below.

The seller is NerdCandyStore, and you can visit their store on Etsy.com.

Thanks for the find, Blot.

DC released their February 2025 solicitations late last week, and while there's still no sign of Booster Gold returning to the DCU, I'm not mad. DC is kindly allowing me to save up my money to buy this:

BOOSTER GOLD: THE COMPLETE 2007 SERIES BOOK TWO
Written by DAN JURGENS and KEITH GIFFEN
Art by DAN JURGENS, MIKE NORTON, and more
Cover by DAN JURGENS and NORM RAPMUND
$29.99, 440 Pages, Softcover, ISBN: 978-1-79950-103-9, On Sale April 8

Though Booster yearns for the simple life, destiny has thrust the responsibility of time itself in his hands. As the time stream goes awry and the past unravels, he must put history back in its place before existence vanishes entirely! Collects Booster Gold #15-31 and The Brave and the Bold #23.

Perhaps not so coincidentally, Volume One was released in April 2024. I wonder if that means we should expect the third (and likely final) volume in April 2026?

You can find this and the rest of DC's solicitations at AIPTComics.com.

Justice League America #51 is a nice reminder that no matter how bad things get, you can always count on your friends.

No, I didn't choose this page just because of "Your Boosteraciousness," but I could have.
