Studying History
The ayes have it. The forum will stick around while we wait for DC to give us something to fill it with.
Last week's poll question: Does this site need to keep its forum? (44 votes)
This question is a variant of a question I first asked over 5 years ago. (Can you believe Boosterrific.com has been running polls for five years? Time flies when you're voting in polls.)

Another International Justice League Disbanded
You might recall that DC teased us after Convergence with news that Justice League United was being revamped to include future guest appearances by assorted DC heroes, including Booster Gold.
Never mind.
DC has announced it is cancelling Justice League United effective with issue #16 shipping in December. If Booster doesn't make an appearance in the series by then, he's going to need to start his own team.
For more information on this and the other four titles that DC is canceling, visit ComicBookResources.com

Kevin Shinick Says Don't Bother Watching
Russ Burlingame recently interviewed Robot Chicken writer Kevin Shinick. Burlingame asked whether Booster Gold would make an appearance in the upcoming Robot Chicken DC Comics Special 3: Magical Friendship.
Burlingame: Any more Booster Gold? You know I have to ask.
Shinick: You know, sadly, I don't think he's in this one. I voiced him [before] and so when I cut him down, I'm like "Come on!"
See the headline at the top of this post? That's how I interpreted Shinick's admission. It's that knee-jerk response to bad news from people like me that keeps Dan DiDio from telling us the truth about what DC is and is not planning. That means that I'm part of the problem.
If I want to make the world a better place, I guess I'll just have to watch Robot Chicken's DC special despite it containing 0% Gold.
You can read the full interview, in which Shinick discusses some of the other things he's involved with that have nothing to do with Booster Gold, such as a Scooby-Doo/KISS crossover, at ComicBook.com.

Booster Gold and Grumpy
Start your week with some old friends.
Beetle doesn't look like he likes Mondays any more than I do.
This Blue and Gold sketch was drawn by Marcus To at Fan Expo Canada 2015. You can see more of Marcus' work on Instagram.com.

Nothing Says Etsy Like a Booster Gold Ornament
It might seem a little early for a Christmas post, but it's not. At least not when we're talking about hand-painted Booster Gold Christmas ornaments.
Those ornaments were created by ThePerfectCup, who also makes a Blue Beetle ornament (for the reasonable price of just $15). These ornaments can take up to a month to paint and ship, so if you'd like to see a little Blue and Gold on your tree this year, visit ThePerfectCup on etsy.com today.
