Booster Gold Speaks Again and Again

DeAtHmkw has recently uploaded to YouTube all of the audio from Booster Gold's exploration missions in DC Universe Online. If you haven't played DC Universe Online but you are interested in listening to Booster Gold play the role of humorous tour guide for Metropolis and Gotham City, these links are for you.

(Be forewarned of two things: 1) These clips haven't been edited together in any order. 2) These clips are of the second Booster Gold voice. A different voice actor was used during the game's first year, and this second voice is less subtle.)

Gotham City:

Metropolis:

As a bonus, here are some other Booster audio clips:

Happy listening!

The Real Dynamic Duo

Does it get better than this?

Booster and Blue by Robert Atkins and Simon Gough

"Booster and Blue" were two separate ink sketches by Robert Atkins (robertatkinsart.blogspot.com) that have been combined and colored by Simon Gough (spidermanfan2099.deviantart.com). Together, they make a good team.

And He Said He Didn't Know What He Was Doing

Earlier this week ComicBookResources.com ran Ryan Ingram's recap of the "Superman: The Post-Crisis Era" panel held July 19 at Comic-Con.

Panelists included names familiar to Superman fans of the late 80s and early 90s, including Jon Bogdanove, Mike Carlin, Jerry Ordway, George Pérez, Louise Simonson, Marv Wolfman, and most notably Dan Jurgens. I say that Jurgens was most notable because during the panel he said this:

"Anybody that looks at [Booster Gold Volume 1] will see the work of somebody who really didn't know what he was doing, who was kind of learning on the job."

That sounds pretty humble for someone who has created a character still around largely unchanged today. How many people can say that the work they did as a novice inspired others for the next 30 years? We should all be so lucky!

Thanks for the mistakes, Dan.

Never Has I Told You So Been So Unsatisfying

Back on June 25, I wrote, "Booster Gold fans might not want to expect too much participation from Booster Gold in the upcoming Justice League 'Trinity War' event." I am not happy to report that I told you so.

Last week's poll question: What was your reaction to the news that Booster Gold will play no part in Trinity War? (49 votes)

What was your reaction to the news that Booster Gold will play no part in Trinity War?

Obviously, most of you were still holding out hope for an appearance by our hero. To continue on that theme, I point out that four months remain in the year (where does the time go?), and there is currently no reason to expect to see Booster Gold return to the DCnU anytime soon. How optimistic are you about seeing Booster before the calendar rolls over?

New Release: Trinity of Sin: Pandora #2

Here we go again. Trinity of Sin: Pandora #2 is released today. Will Booster Gold make an appearance? I have no idea.

Last month I told you to expect a glimpse of Booster Gold flashback in Trinity of Sin: Pandora #1. That information was based on a teaser released at dccomics.com. I was misled, and Booster was nowhere to be seen in that issue.

Will the teased pages with Booster be printed in today's book instead? I don't know. It's not in the issue preview at mtv.com. We now know that Booster won't be involved in Trinity War, and I begin to suspect that he won't be in Trinity of Sin: Pandora, either.

If anyone notices Booster in the issue, please let me know. Until I hear from you, I'm going to assume otherwise.
