If you're going to your Local Comic Shop today, don't expect to find "Booster Shot" Part Five. Action Comics #997 won't be out until next week.

(Yes, Action Comics #996 came out two weeks ago, but last week was a 5th-week "skip week", so DC doesn't count it as part of their regular schedule.)

So while we have to wait an extra week for more Booster Gold, we'll just consider Action #997 a Booster Gold Valentine's Day special.

The Superman/Booster Gold team-up continues in today's Action Comics #996.

"Booster Shot" Part 4 is the first not to feature Booster on both covers. Therefore, it's okay if you buy only one copy this week. (The "variant" cover with Booster Gold is by Dustin Nguyen).

Go to DenOfGeek.com to read the preview, then go to your Local Comic Shop to buy the issue and make Skeets happy!

(Relax and enjoy your Action Comics today. We'll discuss DC's April solicitations on Friday.)

"Booster Shot," the epic team-up pairing Superman and Booster Gold, continues in today's Action Comics #995.

Though interior art is provided by Brett Booth and Norm Rapmund (and not Dan Jurgens), Jurgens did draw one of the two covers. The other cover is credited to Jay Leisten and Neil Edwards.

UPDATE: dccomics.com got their own credits wrong again (for the third issue in a row). The alternate cover is by Dustin Nguyen.

Newsarma.com has the preview. (Spoiler warning: It contains the return of an old Booster Gold foe whose name rhymes with Roderick!)

Buy it today and make Skeets happy!

I hope you have some money left over from your Christmas shopping, because Action Comics #994 is out today!

Like last issue, today's comic was drawn by Dan Jurgens, despite what both DCComics.com and PreviewsWorld.com say. This is likely the last issue of the "Booster Shot" story that will be penciled by Jurgens, so enjoy it while you can!

If you'd like to try before you buy, you'll find a preview of the issue at DCComics.com.

Buy both covers (by Jurgens and Francis Manapul), and make Skeets happy!

The one, the only Booster Gold makes his long-awaited return to the DC Universe in today's Action Comics #993!

For some reason, both DCComics.com and Diamond Comic Distributor's website PreviewsWorld.com still incorrectly identify several of the issue's artists. As we have detailed before (and you can see above), the issue is pencilled by the inimitable Dan Jurgens with inks by Joe Prado & Cam Smith. Francis Manapul provides the alternate cover art.

You can see a preview of the issue on CBR.com.

Hurry to your Local Comic Shop today to buy both covers and make Skeets happy!
