Today, DC releases the final issue of Justice League: The Atom Project, featuring, as the title suggests, The Atom. And The Atom. (And Captain Atom.)

I don't expect Booster Gold will be in that. (Because, well, he's busy being chained to a wall somewhere. Or some when. (The DC Multiverse is complicated.))

But Booster Gold did make a surprise guest appearance in The Atom's last self-titled comic series 17 years ago today in The All New Atom #24!

Oops. Sorry. My mistake. Booster was NOT in The All New Atom #24 in 2008.

Let no one speak of this again.

Remember Jennifer? She's the one who dropped me a note about Superman: The Man of Tomorrow #7 (2020) that inspired last month's poll. (And, no, I haven't added that one yet. Before I add any digital comics, I have to figure out how I'm going to indicate that they aren't available in the back issue bin of your Local Comic Shop. I haven't had the time for that yet.)

Back to the point, Jennifer is back, and this time she's found *another* Booster Gold appearance in a print comic (from 1988!) that I also didn't have in the Boosterrific database. Take a look at this panel from Power of the Atom #5:

pencils by Dwayne Turner, inks by Keith Wilson

That's definitely an appearance, and I definitely didn't know about it until Jennifer told me. (Because it's only a digital image of Booster on a computer monitor and not the hero himself — Booster appears only on that one panel in the whole comic — I classify this sort of thing as an out-of-continuity appearance, which is where you'll now find it in the lists of appearances.)

The Boosterrific.com database is more complete than ever before! Thanks, Jennifer.

If anyone spots anything else, please let me know.
