It's 9:28 PM on Sunday night, and I'm sitting at my computer struggling to find something I judge to be worthwhile to post in the Boosterrific Blog. This has become a regular occurrence as of late, and I'm tired of it.

Given that DC Comics has banished Booster Gold to an alternate dimension thereby minimizing any chance we'll be seeing our hero in any new comic books for the foreseeable future, compounded by the fact that I'm tired of sorting through a constant churn of unfounded casting rumors for a currently non-existent television show to find genuine Booster Gold "news," I have come to the decision to stop posting three-times-a-week to this blog, at least until such time as Booster Gold returns to comics (or, I suppose, television).

To be clear, I am not abandoning the site. I plan to continue to post something at least once a week, probably on Wednesdays or Fridays (because most news breaks on weekdays). And if I see Booster Gold news that I think is genuinely worth drawing attention to, like new merchandise or commissioned art, I will definitely make additional posts. But it might be some time before I have three posts in a week again.

If you come up with something that you think should be shared with Booster Gold fans, you can always reach me via the Boosterrific Contact Form. If you see something, say something!

As always, thank you for your support.

The Armageddon 2001 storyline ran through the DC annuals in 1991 as Waverider took peeks into potential futures for the heroes of the DCU in search of the one who would become the evil dictator Monarch.

It was Superman's turn in Superman Annual #3, where an increasingly tyrannical Man of Tomorrow is opposed by the freedom-loving Justice League International (with predictable results).

I also really like pages 38 and 44, but neither of those pages manages to work in quite so much delicious cheesecake.

Since I was speaking of the Blot and McFarlane Toys on Monday, I might as well repost this:

I can't even begin to imagine what I would do with a box full of Booster Gold, but I'm happy you're happy, Blot.

The Blot got in touch this weekend to say, well, this:

Hey! Check out this McFarlane Toys Super Powers variant cover to Action Comics #1076 featuring the latest Booster Gold action figure. Kinda crazy. Just learned about it.

Good find, Blot!

According to the original DC Comics November 2024 solicitation, Action Comics #1076 will have six different covers: Cover A, two artist variants, a Creature Commandos variant, a McFarlane Toys variant, and a 1:25 retailer incentive variant. As we now know, this is the McFarlane Toys one of those.

DC's distributor, Lunar Distribution, has this listed as a "ACTION COMICS #1076 CVR E MCFARLANE TOYS CARD STOCK VAR" with cover price of $5.99. The book will be released on November 20, but If you want it, be sure to tell your Local Comic Shop today, as today is the Final Order Cut-off deadline for orders.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Blot.

Skeets comes out of unwilling retirement briefly in 1991's Adventures of Superman #476, though only as the bait for Booster Gold, but it's Superman who will get caught in the time-traveling Linear Man's trap. Trouble for Superman means opportunity for Booster Gold!

Time travel stories always give author/artist Dan Jurgens a headache, too, Lois. Pro tip: It helps if you think fourth dimensionally.
