New Release: Convergence JLI #1
This is the second week of Convergence, and thus you'll find the second wave of tie-in mini-series in your Local Comic Shop today.
If you're looking for Booster Gold, you'll find him in the back of Convergence: Justice League International #1, but not as part of the team itself. That may be disappointing to Booster Gold fans, but Red Tornado fans deserve to see their hero in action, too. (I assume that there are Red Tornado fans.)
You can read a preview of the issue at ComicBookResources.com.

I'd Wear That
Booster Gold is so awesome, he can wear his own steampunk cosplay:

Gail Simone Kills Booster Gold
I'd been reluctant to admit that the character seen tied to a fence in last week's Convergence Nightwing/Oracle #1 could possibly be the Justice Riders incarnation of Booster Gold. So I contacted the book's creators on Twitter for confirmation.
@GailSimone Is that #BoosterGold tied to the fence in #Convergence Nightwing/Oracle 1? (Say it ain't so!)
— Boosterrific April 10, 2015@boosterrific @JanDuursema_art What? Where?
— Gail Simone April 10, 2015
If issue writer Gail Simone didn't see anything, I didn't either. (Thanks to Morgenstern for telling me the bad news.)

Dan Jurgens Explains It All
On Monday, TwinGalaxiesLive posted an interview with Dan Jurgesn about Convergence that finally explains some of the shenanigans of Booster Gold: Futures End.
Starting at 1:54 into the above video, Jurgens tells us that there is no time travel in Futures End: Booster Gold, just travel through space, as everything takes place on the sentient planet introduced in Convergence.
Mind. Blown.
Does this mean that Jonah Hex, who also appeared to travel through time with Booster in his own series, is also on that planet? Is the older Booster in that issue not the Booster we saw return from Flashpoint, but the older "Supernova" Booster from Time Masters: Vanishing Point? Curiouser and curiouser.
Thanks to Jacqueline G. Lopez and Matthew Hiscox and The Comic Book Show at TwinGalaxiesLive.com for this information.

The Perfect Team-Up Is Just One Man
I suppose it figures that the Booster Gold with the fewest votes is also the Booster Gold who has appeared in the fewest number of panels (exactly one, which is also the number of votes he got).
Last week's poll question: Which alternate-continuity version of himself should Booster Gold meet during Convergence? (44 votes)
Now that Convergence is upon us, let's talk about the elseworlds where a single creator — combination of writer and artist — other than Dan Jurgens was responsible for telling the stories of most of Booster Gold's adventures. Who would you want to read?
