I see that "breakfast cereal" was the unpopular choice. Superman sold Kellogg's Frosted Flakes in the 1950s. Anything Superman could do, Booster Gold could do better!

Last week's poll question: Which category of product is Booster Gold best qualified to promote? (43 votes)

Christmas is less than a week away, and I for one am glad that I don't have to buy a present for Booster Gold. The man has his own robotic sidekick and a car named after him and. What can you give him that he doesn't already have?

One day, we will tell our grandchildren that we used to read comic books printed on paper about a character named Booster Gold. They'll probably look at us like we're making things up.

On Twitter, Diabolu Frank, aka @CommanderBlanx, said his most memorable Booster foe was Chiller. What else would you expect from someone who runs a website devoted to Justice League Detroit?

I imagine that most of you won't see today's Thanksgiving-themed question until Monday. Given that Thanksgiving is official holiday of leftovers, that's probably appropriate.

When I asked, 11% of you said you've dressed as Booster Gold for Halloween. Poll respondent Pat Nestor went further, putting his camera where his mouth is.

Says Pat:

This is from October of 1990. The water blaster was from my friend's costume... He went to the bathroom and left it with me.

It was a total homemade costume. It took me a while to get it close to something I liked. Surprisingly there were a few people who knew who I was supposed to be, but overall I got like four dozen "who are you?" Questions.

I was a second runner up in the costume contest. (There was a group dressed like the band DEVO who won first prize.)

Thanks for sharing, Pat. I think we'll all agree that costume is the definition of Boosterrific.

On November 11, 1918, Private Henry Gunther was killed storming a German machine gun blockade one minute before the armistace that ended World War I. He was the last soldier known to die in combat before the end of "the war to end all war."

Panel from Booster Gold, Vol. 2, #16

It is in memory of Private Gunther and every other soldier that we now set aside November 11 as a day of remembrance for the sacrifice soldiers have made on behalf of their countries.

If you know a veteran, take the time today to thank them for their service.
