Happy Veterans Day, Booster Gold fans.

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, available today for most gaming platforms, contains a virtual LEGO minifig of Booster Gold, and even more awesomely, an accompanying Skeets!

If you're looking for the perfect way to thank a veteran for his service, consider asking him to play a co-op game with Booster Gold and Blue Beetle. It's the least we can do.

Blue and Gold make everything better, even Mondays.

Today's sketch is by Battlepug artist Mike Norton and comes to us by way of failed-mad-scientist.tumblr.com.

Now have a nice day.

Just in time for the return of "classic" Blue and Gold in Justice League 3000 comes this new shirt from ThinkGeek.com.

Says the ad copy: "Booster Gold is from the future, so he knows already knows how much you want this shirt." I wish I'd thought of that.

The shirt is currently on sale for $19.99, but you'll find that you'll be spending twice that when you see the accompanying Blue Beetle shirt.

Of those of you who don't like LEGO games, how many don't play video games at all? (That's not a criticism or a judgment, just curiosity.)

Last week's poll question: Are you planning on buying LEGO Batman 3:Beyond Gotham? (48 votes)

With Booster Gold now meeting Booster Gold in Futures End and re-teaming with a not-dead Blue Beetle in Justice League 300, to say nothing about what might be happening in April's Convergence event, is it time that I started sorting out and tracking the separate chronologies of the Booster Gold of various universes (pre-Flashpoint, New 52, Giffen/DeMatteis, Justice League Unlimited, etc.)?

Remember back in September when Newsarama.com broke the news that Blue Beetle and Booster Gold would be coming to Justice League 3000? Let me refresh your memory:

Keith Giffen: It's Beetle and Booster. This is them. Basically, a cryogenic chamber is found on Takron-Galtos while they're excavating, and inside are Beetle and Booster. It's Ted and Michael. It's really, really them.

That's been solicited as happening in next month's issue (#12). But those of you who are Booster Gold completists — one panel cameo appearances count too! — pay attention to this DC Comics solicitation for today's Justice League 3000 #11:

The Five have been defeated — but the Justice League has no time to catch their breath with the forces of Etrigan, the Demon massing for attack and the threat of the new Injustice League rising. Plus: a stunning discovery on Takron-Galtos!

I have a feeling I know what that stunning discovery is going to be. I'm going to find out for sure at my Local Comic Shop this afternoon.

UPDATE: Blue and Gold appearance confirmed. If you want issue #12 to make any sense, run to your LCS and pick up your copy of #11 today! (Ok, so maybe they just make a one panel cameo that has little if anything to do with the rest of the issue. But still. Buy it and make Skeets happy.)
