Personally, I think you should never give someone money just because they've hired a celebrity spokesperson. Unless that spokesperson is Booster Gold.

Last week's poll question: Would you give money to a charity just because Booster Gold endorsed it? (40 votes)

Yesterday, Russ Burlingame pulled the scab off a wound when he reported at ComicBook.com that Dan Jurgens still refuses to divulge his plans for the long cancelled Booster Gold Volume 2.

"I always look at it and say there's going to be a chance one day, someday somehow, to give those answers."
-- Dan Jurgens

We've only been waiting 4 years since Flashpoint ended to learn who Black Beetle is or who Booster Gold marries. It took about 9 years to see what Dirk Davis did with Booster's fortune after Millennium, and about 20 to see Booster reunited with his dead sister. Compared to those numbers, 4 years is the blink of an eye. A very, very slow blink.

To pass the time, let's reinvestigate who we think the likely suspects are to marry Booster Gold. I'm sure you remember Trixie Collins, and no doubt you're familiar with Godiva and Liri Lee, but you may have forgotten time traveler Sondra Crain or Flashpoint damsel-in-distress Alexandra Gianopoulos.

Given how often I see the design repeated in fan art, I cannot believe that no one voted for "teardrop" Skeets.

Last week's poll question: What's your preferred Skeets design? (42 votes)

It's demonstrable that celebrities bring attention to some good causes they choose to promote, but would we trust the word of a glory-hungry, fame-seeking spokesperson like Booster Gold when he asks us to donate our time and money to the latest cause of the week?

Maybe Booster Gold should have a wife. That alone would differentiate him from every other hero of this current generation.

Last week's poll question: Should Booster Gold have a love interest? (46 votes)

Earlier this week, Morgenstern posted a link in the Boosterrific Forum to a Youtube video in which Skeets was redesigned with a star-shaped viewscreen. Most of us thought that was pretty cool. Maybe it should make its way into canon.

Oooh. Looks like we need a run-off!

Last week's poll question: What style would be the best fit for a Booster Gold movie? (55 votes)

In related news, Shawn dropped by the comments yesterday to say that he spoke to Dan Jurgens last weekend (presumably at the Midwest Comic Book Association 2015 Fall Comicon) and came away with the impression that "it would be a solo Booster movie not including Beetle." (To be clear: I'm quoting Shawn, not Jurgens.)

It seems Hollywood can't have a big budget superhero movie without introducing at least one love interest for their bachelor protagonists. That being the case, it seems likely that Booster will have a girl to romance between whatever crises he's managing solo. Is it enough to win the day, or does Booster have to win the girl too?

Hey! Most of you are about the same age as Booster Gold. Go figure.

Last week's poll question: How old are you? (56 votes)

So Booster Gold and Blue Beetle are going to be in a movie together. But what kind of movie is that going to be?
