Found by Morgenstern on Youtube: New World Comics presents the Death and Resurrection of Superman. Booster Gold shows up at about the 1:36 mark because you can't call it Doomsday without Booster Gold.

I love it. Who needs big budgets when you've got such great story and characters? ("You better get out of here before I mess up the me part of your face.")

Thanks to Morgenstern for passing it along. Bigger thanks to all involved at New World Comics for making it happen in the first place.

Booster Gold has never endorsed a tea. Kiri B-G is out to correct that oversight:

Naturally caffeine free tea that packs a blast of refreshing fruit flavors. Drink it hot or cold, this tea is good anytime.

You can find this and several other Justice League International-inspired tea blends by Kiri B-G at adagio.com. (Thanks to Morgenstern for spotting this.)

Look what Morgenstern spotted in DC's September solicitations:

BAT-MITE #4
Written by DAN JURGENS
Art and cover by CORIN HOWELL
On sale SEPTEMBER 2 • $2.99 US

There's a new bad guy in town: Gridlock, the villain who's stuck in the past! And now, he's out to stop the future from coming! Booster Gold, the hero from the future, obviously can't allow that, but when he seeks Bat-Mite's help in finding this purloiner of progress, it doesn't take much of a prognosticator to predict that he's going to regret it.

Booster's first headlining role in the post-Convergence DCU comes courtesy of who else but Booster's proud papa, Dan Jurgens. And look: New Skeets!

You can see all the announced books (including the many, many Convergence collections, some of which contain reprints of Convergence Booster Gold) online at Newsarama.com.

UPDATE 2015-06-19: This is the second time in recent weeks I have accidentally let a post go early. I promise to try and be more careful from here on. So if you saw this post yesterday, please forgive this repost.

JLA Classified #6

To make amends, I offer this bonus link to a Dan Jurgens and Corin Howell interview at Comicosity.com about Bat-Mite. The interview is light on Booster Gold references, but not everything can be solid gold, right?

Thanks to the highly unscientific Boosterrific.com poll, I think we can be reasonably sure that the Chip Kidd "Variant" is going to be the rarer (read: more expensive) cover in years to come.

Last week's poll question: Which cover for Convergence: Booster Gold #1 did you buy? (51 votes)

Over in the Boosterrific.com Forum, Morgenstern has brought it to our attention that Dan DiDio has said that one Convergence mini-series will "definitely continue on, but in a new setting." Matt SantoriGriffith (@FotoClub) wondered whether it might be Booster Gold.

"@FotoCub Booster is a little too obvious, don't you think?"

So what Booster Gold fans to make of that?

I'd been reluctant to admit that the character seen tied to a fence in last week's Convergence Nightwing/Oracle #1 could possibly be the Justice Riders incarnation of Booster Gold. So I contacted the book's creators on Twitter for confirmation.

@GailSimone Is that #BoosterGold tied to the fence in #Convergence Nightwing/Oracle 1? (Say it ain't so!)
— Boosterrific April 10, 2015

@boosterrific @JanDuursema_art What? Where?
— Gail Simone April 10, 2015

If issue writer Gail Simone didn't see anything, I didn't either. (Thanks to Morgenstern for telling me the bad news.)
