Rob Snow alerts me that Booster Gold is in today's Justice League Unlimited #18. And if you recall, two weeks ago, Tony alerted us that Booster Gold also appears in a background panel in today's Superman #37 (or "Legacy 879" if you've been collecting since 1939).

Now, I haven't yet seen the panels from JLU #18, but the Superman panel in question is included in the issue preview at BleedingCool.com, but the important part is this:

Hmm. That looks familiar. Where have I seen that before? Ah, yes, Batman/Superman: World's Finest #20, also drawn by Dan Mora.

I hope this means Mora will be sneaking Booster into the background of more comics. Keep your eyes peeled, Booster boosters!

Thanks, Rob and Tony.

Yesterday, I accidently posted here on the Boosterrific! Blog a stub I had left to remind myself that Booster Gold The Complete 2007 Series Book Three was coming out. I was supposed to turn that post into what you're reading now. Oops.

In any event, Booster Gold The Complete 2007 Series Book Three actually is now available now at your Local Comic Shop. Hooray!

This softcover collection reprints Booster Gold Volume 2 issues #32 through #47 plus Time Masters: Vanishing Point #1 through #6.

(You may notice that if you line up the spines for Booster Gold The Complete 2007 Series Books One, Two, and Three, they look a little off center. Could that mean that next year we'll get a companion Booster Gold The Complete 1985 Series to balance? I like to hope so!)

Buy this trade paperback and make Skeets happy.

P.S. Speaking of "oops," all Booster boosters should offer a big thanks to J, who continues to do sterling work ensuring that the Boosterrific! Database is as complete and accurate as possible. Just this weekend, they reported finding several additional instances of house ads as well as catching the omission of Booster's one-panel cameo from Action Comics #664. Thanks, J!

Coming tomorrow to your Local Comic Shop: Action Comics #1097 with Booster Gold on (count 'em!) two separate covers!

The image on the left is "Cover A Ryan Sook." The image on the right is "Cover D Skyar Patridge Things to Come Card Stock Variant." Buy one or the other (or both!) and make Skeets happy (wherever he is).

Booster booster J has alerted me that Booster Gold is in the recently released Taste of Justice #20. But there's a catch:

I'm saying this based on the image on the webpage. I haven't actually read it, since DC stopped making Taste of Justice available for free.

J's right. Taste of Justice, previously a free read in the DC Go! line of webcomics, is now behind a paywall at dcuniverseinfinite.com. Just like Booster Gold's previously reported appearances in DC Go!'s Aquaman: Yo-Ho-Hold onto Your Hook, I can no longer confirm Booster's inclusion in DC's official web comics.

Yes, I could start paying $8 a month for access to these stories, but I'm not going to. For one thing, I've never much cared for comics made only of energy-dependent pixels that I cannot add to my long boxes. For another, has anyone seen the price of gas lately? I already pay too much for comics—I remember when DC raised cover prices to $1, and if young me could see what I'm paying now for an issue of Action Comics, he would have chosen an entirely different hobby. (My dad used to collect shark's teeth. The most expensive part about that was getting them out of the shark's mouths.)

All that said, if any Booster boosters want to send me screenshots confirming any future Booster Gold appearances in DC's digital exclusives, I'll be happy to update the Boosterrific! Database with appropriate information and credit.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, J.

Coming today to your Local Comic Shop is the long awaited Bruno Redondo ugly sweater variant of Justice League Unlimited #17.

But wait! There's more!

Rob Snow has alerted me that you can clearly see Booster Gold in the online preview at AIPTComics.com for Superman #36 (which they have mistakenly called issue number 38 despite the "36" plainly visible on the cover art. Ooops).

Yep, that's Booster, all right.

Pick up one or more of these issues and make Skeets happy.
