At ComicCon in July, Geoff Johns promised Booster Gold fans that Forever Evil would link to our hero in some way. Unfortunately, there is no sign or direct reference to Booster anywhere in the book.

I don't understand what Johns could have been referring to... unless it was this:

That's Lex Luthor having a politely threatening converation with one Thomas Kord. (Boy, that name seems familiar. Where have I heard that before?) Lex is threatening Thomas's family, including his son at Northwestern University. (Gee, I wonder who that could be?)

If you want more details, you'll have to pick up Forever Evil #1, now at your local comic shop!

Over on Deviant Art, Chinese artist Fuge has imagined an updated Ted Kord's costume for the New 52.

I'm not nuts about the gold panels on Ted's costume, but if he has to wear something like that to run with the New 52 crowd, I can live with it. On the other hand, the "belt" on Booster's costume is an upgrade.

Remember that New 52 Booster Gold bust that DC Entertainment released last year that no one really likes because it's Booster's Nu52 costume?

If the $70 asking price was the only thing keeping it off your mantelpiece, DC is including that bust with several others in the "Buy One Get One 50% Off Sale" at shopdcentertainment.com. Yes, you have to spend $70 to save $35, but that's why DC made a New 52 Blue Beetle bust, too.

If you're interested, act fast. The sale ends tomorrow morning at 6AM EDT.

Comic convention season is fast approaching, so get ready to grab your cameras and snap some shots of Booster Gold cosplayers!

This Earth-11 Blue and Gold was spotted at WonderCon 2013 last month by William Tung, who is always on the lookout for good Booster Gold cosplayers. Tung's multitude of other cosplay pics, previously spotlighted on this site here, can be found under the handle W10002 on flickr.com.

This image isn't new (creator Kris Smith posted it on DeviantArt back in 2009), but that doesn't make it any less Boosterrific.

Who wouldn't want to watch a cartoon show about this odd couple?
