Maybe it's time DC tried giving Skeets his own book.

Last week's poll question: Who makes a better sidekick for Booster Gold? (56 votes)

Earlier this week, a friend complained to me about how much he hated Justice League War. He vowed not to watch any more DC Universe Animated Original Movies (DCUAOM). But what if they featured Booster Gold, I asked. And I'm asking readers of Boosterrific.com the same question.

I would have sworn I posted this before, but after scouring my image directories and database, I can't find any record of it. Therefore, I'm correcting that oversight today!

That's a sketch of classic Booster Gold (and Skeets!) from 2011 by current Marvel Comics' Daredevil artist Chris Samnee. You can find more of Samnee's work at DeviantArt.com (and, of course, in the pages of Daredevil).

More than half of you would buy extra issues if you thought it would make a difference to DC. You guys are real fans!

Last week's poll question: Would you be willing to buy 2 copies per issue if that would convince DC to produce a new Booster Gold series? (60 votes)

Elvis or The Beatles? Coke or Pepsi? PC or Mac? Fight!

I really wish I'd found this sooner:

On DeviantArt.com, cosplayer Vanessa takes credit for her role as a humanoid Skeets:

This is from about a year back [at Stan Lee's Comikaze Expo 2013] where my bf and I were Booster Gold and a humanoid Skeets at Comikaze. :D It was our first cosplay and we really didn't know what the hell we were doing. Only one person got that I was Skeets (lol), but after I told the admiring Booster Gold fans, they were very excited. I've never seen a Skeets cosplay, so I thought I was pretty darn original, and the people who got it loved it. The best part was that every time I sat down I would leave a glittering gold butt print. It was great.

What a great idea!

The photo was taken by David Ngo, whose cosplay galleries on Flickr.com are truly staggering. You can see more of Vanessa's ideas at Fatalist555.DeviantArt.com.

Booster Gold got a name drop in the digital release of Smallville: Chaos #1, but he's back in action with Skeets (!), working with Smallville's version of the Justice League in Smallville: Chaos #2. You can tell he's the most important member; he's the one doing all the real work.

Smallville: Chaos #1. Writer: Bryan Q. Miller, Art: Agustin Padilla, Colors: Carrie Strachan

This issue is available online (as Smallville: Chaos #2) at Comixology.com now for 99¢, but the printed version (as Smallville Season 11: Chaos #1) won't be coming to your Local Comic Shop until August.
