Spit in One Hand

Several people were kind enough to notify me that Booster Gold appears in DC's latest teaser image for Futures End. That is Booster Gold, isn't it?

DC's teasers are designed to keep us excited and talking about their comics. They tend to be more metaphorical allusions than actual promises of published content. Therefore, we probably shouldn't spend too much time discussing what we think of the new costume (Booster's 3rd in the New 52) or what Booster could be doing with Tim Drake as a sidekick. Neither should we debate whether that is Smallville's Booster Gold or whether Booster will have anything to do with Futures End's emphasis on Earth-2 or the DC Multiverse.

However, if you enjoy entertaining such intellectual exercises, be my guest. You'll find the conversation has already started in the Boosterrific Forum (with a link to the original teaser image).

UPDATE 2014-04-16: As you can see from the link to BleedingCool.com that Shawn left in the comments below, it is starting to look like Booster will have a spin-off title related to Futures End. Will it be more relevant to the Futures End story than his Flashpoint adventure? Who cares so long as Booster gets his own title again!

While We Are Discussing Costume Changes

Jim Lee isn't the only one who can redesign a costume. Take a look at this re-imagining by Femmes-Fatalaes:

I Prefer My Heroes to Wear Gold Pants

We've talked about it in the Boosterrific Blog comments and on the Boosterrific Forum. So I might as well put it here, too.

Yes, that's Booster Gold making his entrance in All-Star Western #28. And yes, other than the gauntlets and the bicep stripes (which do not appear in any other panel in the issue), he is clearly wearing his pre-Flashpoint costume.

The debate we're having is whether this was an accident on the part of artist Fabrizio Fiorentino, or if this was an intentional change to Booster's costume authorized by DC Editorial. I don't have the answer. What do you think?

Booster Gold Sketch by Alex Chung

Herbert Fung is a big fan of Booster Gold and likes to collect Booster Gold sketches. He's been nice enough to share what he finds with us when he can. Recently, he sent us another sketch by his friend Alex Chung.

Says Herbert:

"I guess I should have asked for the pre-New 52 version, but he actually makes the new look work!"

Nope, that's not bad at all. You can click on the image above to find more of Chung's work on his Instagram page.
