Back in April, BleedingCool.com told the world that Booster Gold comic would be part of the Futures End tie-ins in September. Now Rich Johnston teases us with another forthcoming Booster Gold appearance:

Well, Bleeding Cool understands that [Justice League 3000] issue # 12 will feature two folks from an earlier incarnation of the Justice League. A much earlier incarnation. My favourite incarnation, from before the New 52 relaunch.

Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, from the bwah-ha-ha-ha era of the Justice League, uncovered after being trapped in a cryonic chamber for a thousand years...

Personally, I find it really hard to believe that DC would let Giffen use pre-New 52 characters in Justice League 3000, especially the Blue Beetle. But I think I'd like it if they did.

Enthusiastic crowd! Here's hoping that most of you aren't wrong.

Last week's poll question: What do you think Dan DiDio was teasing about DC's plans for Booster Gold? (62 votes)

Joss recently joined the Boosterrific Forum (hello, Joss!), and he immediately asked me the tough question: How old is Booster Gold? That's a hard question to answer.

Booster was in his mid-twenties when he debuted in Booster Gold volume 1, and was revealed to be in his mid-thirties in later issues of Booster Gold volume 2, but that was before he was infected with a disease that made his functionally immortal. Of course, the New 52 reset everything, making the entire DC Universe, and presumably Booster Gold, considerably younger, although Booster seemed to survive Flashpoint unaltered. Where does all that leave Booster Gold?

I don't think a lack of Booster Gold cosplayers is in and of itself a problem, but when no one cares enough to dress like Booster Gold it seems to me that the fans are starting to move on to other things. Given how DC has underused The Greatest Character In History for the past 2+ years, maybe they should.

Last week's poll question: Does the lack of Booster Gold cosplayers at Comic-Con signify a bigger problem for Booster Gold fandom? (46 votes)

I often feel that I'm letting Booster Gold fans down when I don't gush with enthusiasm over teases like Dan DiDio's DC All Access announcement. Naturally, I'm not the sort of person who who gets excited about such things (especially when they come from someone with DiDio's track record of intentionally misleading statements), but that doesn't necessarily mean that you shouldn't. Hope and enthusiasm are good things. So I ask you, the fans, what was your reaction to DiDio's tease?

"So with the Five Year Later jump in September, There's one book that's a clue book, there's one book that sets it all up, and it's the one book that gives us a glimpse of what's about to come in. ... I'm not saying it's Booster Gold, but it'd be great if it was Booster Gold."

I'm sure by now you all know where I stand on spreading empty promises and rumors. But since a lot of people seem to be very excited about the fact that a DC executive has actually uttered the words "Booster Gold" on camera, here you go:

That's right, Dan DiDio has officially gone on record in an official DC promotional video as saying that the company is planning something for next April that may or may not involve Booster Gold.

Make of it what you will.

Better luck next month.

Last week's poll question: Do you believe the rumor that Booster Gold will be getting a new ongoing in June? (54 votes)

Today's question is for housekeeping purposes in a world without ongoing Booster Gold comic book appearances.
