Tuesday already? Let's look over the weekly ship list here... Hmm. Looks like if Booster Gold will be anywhere this week, it'll be the DC K.O. Superman vs Captain Atom #1 one shot. If anyone spots Booster there, please let me know.

UPDATE: Yeah, he's in there. And the way he's in there leads me to believe he's going to be in all of these one shots. <sarcasm>Great</sarcasm>.

Meanwhile, DC Universe Infinite has adapted the Booster Gold story "Twas the Night" into vertical smartphone scrolling format as DC Go! Holiday Special 2025 #9. (This story was originally released in 2020 in the DC's Very Merry Multiverse #1 anthology.) You can re-read it now for free at at dcuniverseinfinite.com.

Today you'll find DC K.O. #2 at your Local Comic Shop. As a reminder, this was the last panel in issue one:

Since it's already over and Darkseid has obviously won, why is there a second issue?

UPDATE: Booster Gold also appears (briefly) in Superman #32.

SECOND UPDATE: I've read them now, and I'm frankly amazed that DC keeps finding new ways to make the All In era, now in its second year, less enjoyable. Great job, everyone.

DC released February 2026 solicitations on Friday, and there are three things of note.

1) First and foremost, and this is technically an "April Coming Attraction," they finally solicited direct market retailers for the third and final volume of Booster's 2007 series announced earlier this year prior to Comic-Con International 2025:

BOOSTER GOLD: THE COMPLETE 2007 SERIES BOOK THREE
Written by DAN JURGENS, KEITH GIFFEN, and J.M. DeMATTEIS
Art by DAN JURGENS and CHRIS BATISTA, Cover by KEVIN MAGUIRE
$39.99 US, 520 pages, ON SALE 4/14/26

Booster is back in the past! Mistaken for his (past) self, he is roped into an adventure with the Justice League International! Enjoying the good old days with his bestie Blue Beetle, he must contend with the needs of his past self and the horrors of the present. And when the entire world is undone, will Booster be the only one to remember what the DCU used to be like before the Flash messed it all up?! Collects Booster Gold #32-47 and Time Masters: Vanishing Point #1-6.

2) For a "short" event, DC K.O. will be moving into its fifth month dominating DC's publishing schedule in February, and to no one's great surprise, Booster Gold will be playing some role in DC K.O. #4 (presumably in the "interlude"?):

DC K.O. #4
Written by SCOTT SNYDER, Art and cover by JAVI FERNÁNDEZ
Interlude written by JOSHUA WILLIAMSON, Interlude art by XERMANICO
$5.99 US, Variant $5.99 US, ON SALE 2/11/26

Three mysterious new Omega-charged fighters have entered the tournament… and this trinity of the Absolute will change the face of the DCU forever! It’s all down to how far the final four are willing to go to win in the penultimate chapter of DC K.O.! Plus: Booster’s true allegiance revealed, Darkseid's return foretold, and a bonkers last page that will bring the battle to the next level!

3) This third one is a bit of speculation, but based on the solicited cover, it looks like we might be one step closer to reuniting with Skeets in Flash #30.

THE FLASH #30
Written by MARK WAID and CHRISTOPHER CANTWELL
Art by VASCO GEORGIEV, Cover by DAN MORA
$3.99 US, ON SALE 2/25/26

The Speedsters’ race through time has led them to an encounter with a Darkseid from the past, and their escape leads them to a shocking reunion!

You can't trust DC's covers to give any indication of the interior content anymore, but as you can see in that solicitation image, that's ugly-costume Flash and Impulse reaching for Rocky Davis and Ulitvac there on the Dan Mora cover. When we last saw Rocky back in April in the abrupt cliffhanger ending to the Challengers of the Unknown mini-series (written Christopher Cantwell, wink, wink), he was saved from death and trapped in the past with a vision of Skeets. My fingers are crossed that we'll finally find out what the future's best sidekick has been up to since disappearing way back in 2024's DC All In Special.

You can find the full list of solicitations at aiptcomics.com.

Can you believe that DC K.O. #1 came out 6 weeks ago? And we're still a week away from issue #2. For an event that's only supposed to be five issues/six months long, it sure is taking its own sweet time to get going.

In the meantime, Booster's reported appearance in that exclusive DC Universe Infinite DC Go! Aquaman comic has now spread to episode 20, released on Tuesday.

I've got no reason to believe Booster will be in any of this week's releases, and since DC is saving Booster Gold fans so much money on new releases, we're running out of excuses not to subscribe to DC Universe Infinite Ultra. (I don't really want to read yet another Elseworlds story about pirates. But my resolve is starting to weaken.)

You may have heard reporting from this weekend's New York Comic Con that there was some bonkers inter-company crossover news about what DC has planned for future K.O. comics. That may or may not be in addition to the 30 other already announced tie-in books running through February 2026.

I'm writing this post just to say that I personally do not care about any of those, and I do not plan on reading or buying anything else related to DC K.O. until and unless one of you faithful Booster boosters reports that Booster Gold is found inside. (I'm afraid he's going to be in a bunch, and I just can't with this storyline anymore.)

So keep me posted, please, so that I can update the Boosterrific! Database with new Booster Gold appearances as they happen. Thank you.
