In Smallville: Season 11, Booster Gold acted like a heroic criminal. In All-Star Western, Booster Gold acted like a heroic imbecile. Neither was ideal for Booster fans, but at least Smallville had Skeets!

Last week's poll question: Were you more satisfied with Booster Gold's 3-issue appearance in All-Star Western or Smallville Season 11? (41 votes)

Summertime means Comic Con. Comic Con means big news. What are the chances that some of that big news will be about Booster Gold?

This week's poll question: Do you expect to hear big Booster Gold news out of Comic Con 2013?

[UPDATE 2013-07-21: This poll has been closed early to coincide with the end of Comic-Con International.]

An overwhelming majority! Well, let's put that issue to rest and never speak of it again.

Last week's poll question: Of what country do you believe Booster Gold to be a citizen? (51 votes)

With Booster completing two, separate 3-issue stories this month, it is only natural that we compare them. What did you think?

A majority of those polled think Booster will play little or no role in "Trinity War." Prove them wrong, Geoff Johns, I dare you!

Last week's poll question: How big a part will Booster Gold play in "Trinity War"? (55 votes)

As all Booster Gold fans know, when the New 52 launched 2 years ago, it was widely publicized that Booster Gold would be rebooted as a Canadian citizen. That information came from comic book panelists, not the writers of Booster Gold or Justice League International.

It turned out that Booster's citizenship was never mentioned in Justice League International Volume 3, so there is nothing in canon to suggest that Booster isn't an American citizen as established in the first volume of Booster Gold in the 1980s.

That lack of confirmation hasn't stopped the rumor from floating around the Internet as fact. (For example, Wikipedia still insists Booster is a Canadian citizen.)

Since today is American Independence Day, when we celebrate our citizenship and patriotism, it seems the perfect time to poll Boosterrific readers and find where they stand on Booster's much debated citizenship.

Elvis or the Beatles? Coke or Pepsi? Batman or Superman? There can be only one!

Last week's poll question: Which Justice Leaguer would make the better mentor/role model for Booster Gold? (44 votes)

Earlier this week, I was thinking that Booster Gold would be playing a trivial part at best in the upcoming "Trinity War" event. But events in this week's Justice League of America have me thinking twice. What's your opinion?

I think any character appearing in print for 75 consecutive years deserves his own movie.

Last week's poll question: Are you excited to see Man of Steel? (38 votes)

Because both Batman and Superman are seen in the first telling of Booster's origin story in Booster Gold, volume 1, #6, I've often wondered whether Booster Gold considers either Batman or Superman as his primary inspiration. Superman is powerful and noble; Batman careful and driven. What do you think?
