It's been a month and a half since the publication of an issue of Time Masters: Vanishing Point. So with Vanishing Point #5 finally coming out tomorrow (fingers crossed), perhaps you should take a minute and review issue #4 with the assistance of Dan Jurgens, courtesy of Russ Burlingame's "Gold Exchange" column at newsarama.com.

While you are over there, you may also want to catch up on Burlingame's "Gold Exchange" interview with J.M. DeMatteis about Booster Gold #38. It was a little late when Burlingame published it, and I'm referring to it later still because of recent technical difficulties. But better late than never, right?

Russ Burlingame's latest "Gold Exchange" column is up at Newsarama.com. Burlingame has been very busy lately, having recently married. We can all be thankful that despite the delay he has at least posted his conversation with Dan Jurgens over Time Masters: Vanishing Point #3 before issue 4 is released tomorrow. Better late than never.

UPDATE: Also at newsarama.com, Burlingame has posted a catch-up with J.M. DeMatteis over Booster Gold #36 and #37. It's not especially enlightening, though it does demonstrate that DeMatteis seems unaware of the events in 52 that returned Booster to prominence. Make of that what you will. You can read the article here.

Russ Burlingame quizzes Dan Jurgens about his reasons for including Claw the Unconquered and Starfire in his latest "Gold Exchange" column at Newsarama.com. I'd advise those of you who haven't managed to find a copy of Time Masters: Vanishing Point #2 to stay away from the interview until you grab a copy of the book. I'm not implying that it's a spoiler filled interview. I just think that it will make more sense once you've read the issue.

Russ Burlingame's latest "Gold Exchange" interview with J.M. DeMatteis over Booster Gold #35 is up at Newsarama.com. If there is anything that writers don't like to talk about, it's the future. Jurgens has always been that way, and it is clear in this column that DeMatteis is the same. It's their right to tease us into buying their work, but it sure makes for some frustrating interviews.

I thought it odd that Burlingame would even question DeMatteis on his rationale for choosing Mister Miracle and Big Barda as guests in Booster Gold. After all, DeMatteis was the original scribe for the second volume of Mister Miracle as a spin-off of Justice League. Besides, Miracle and Barda still have a lot of fans and, in their current deceased state, very few comic book appearances these days. But I do appreciate Burlingame for being thorough, and I'm always glad to read his latest column.

By the way, Burlingame is soliciting YOUR opinion regarding Giffen & DeMatteis' controversial change of tone for Booster Gold. If you have something to say about either the tragedy of G/D sullying Geoff Johns' Booster Gold renaissance or the slapstick pie that G&D have thrown in the face of an otherwise stoic DC Universe, head over to this link here to find Burlingame's email address and send him a piece of your mind. (Not literally, please. That's gross.)

The interviews don't end! Russ Burlingame returns with another "Gold Exchange" column, interviewing J.M. DeMatteis about Booster Gold #34. Many of you will be pleased to hear that DeMatteis confirms that Keith Giffen's art was included primarily to ease deadlines for regular series artist Chris Batista and will not become a mainstay for future issues. But don't take my word for it. Go read the the latest "Gold Exchange" yourself at newsarama.com.
