Nine Dollars for Twelve Issues
While reading some recently acquired 1997 back issues, I came across a DC Comics house ad for DC Comics Online via AOL. ("Keyword: Chat DC" because that's how the World Wide Web worked back in your parent's day, kids!) The ad includes the cover of Adventures in the DC Universe #1 showcasing the animated Justice League, including Booster Gold. (He's obscured, but he's there.) So I added the ad to the Boosterrific! Advertisements page here.
That wasn't the only ad I spotted while reading back issues. I'd long been aware of this 40-year-old one for subscriptions (featuring Jose Garcia-Lopez art) but had never added it to Boosterrific.com before because it only mentions Booster Gold (twice!) without ever showing him.
from Super Powers Volume 3, #3, November 1986
Oversight corrected.
What do you think, Booster boosters? Should I add this one to the rest of the house ads, even though Booster is unseen? I'm not as opposed to that idea as I once was, but I still think that comics where Booster is mentioned shouldn't be cataloged with the rest. (Who collects books for mere mentions of other characters?) Maybe it's right that I still only include ads where Booster is seen.
