My Favorite Pages: Adv of Superman 476
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.

Batten Down the Hatches
DC released their January 2022 solicitations late last week (you can read them at AIPTComics.com), and I don't want to alarm anyone, but for the third consecutive month, Booster Gold was nowhere to be seen.
It's already been 20 days since we last saw Booster in a comic book, and if solicitations are any guide (and they usually are), we won't be seeing new adventures of our hero until at least February 1, another 101 days yet. That's a long time.
Why is it that just when DC launches the "all in" Justice League Unlimited era, they take Booster Gold off the table?

Line It Is Drawn Absolutely
We ended last week with a comic book you can't have, so let's start this week with another.
This was artist Rod Allen's contribution to last week's CBR.com's "Line it is Drawn" call for more entries for DC's Absolute line. Yeah, the costumes are over the top, but isn't that the point?
Great job, Rod. I absolutely love it.

Game Over, Man
I'm sure you regularly visit Super-Team Family Presents... at braveandboldlost.blogspot.com, so you've probably already seen Ross Pearsall's latest cover for a Blue and Gold comic book that we'll never get to buy:
Issue #4562 and still just 60¢!
On the Internet, no one can hear you scream (unless their speakers are turned on).
I wonder where Ross will think to put Booster and Beetle next?

You Know, For Kids
Booster Gold is a character in the Teen Titans GO Figure! mobile video game. How do I know? (I mean, other than from the 2018 press release, obviously, because who doesn't read press releases?)
Answer: Because of Internet videos like this (cued to start at 2:48).
