Thing 1: For the last two months, Google Analytics has been telling me that the Boosterrific! Timeline, which is essentially an objective chronological timeline of significant events in the history of Booster Gold's time-traveling adventures, has become one of the site's most popular pages. That page has been part of this site for nearly two decades, and it surprises me that it's just now getting so much traffic (if Google Analytics can be trusted, which isn't always the case). I'm happy that someone is finding value in it, but seeing so many people (or web-crawling spiders) using it makes me wonder if I could improve it. If you have any ideas, let me know.

Thing 2: Over the weekend I noticed that over on Reddit, a user named Saboscrivner has posted a pair of postcard-sized sketches they recently acquired from Steve Lieber featuring the two inarguably best Justice League members:

This is actually the third Booster Gold headshot sketch I've featured by Steve Lieber since 2018 but the first not in Cort Carpenter's Booster Gold sketchbook. Thanks for sharing, Saboscrivner.

Here's something a little different:

This manga-style sketch comes from dominodoodle on DeviantArt.com, who declares Booster Gold to be underrated. I couldn't agree more.

The Blot's Booster Gold sketchbook grew by one at Houston's Comicpalooza last weekend. Check out this commission from Kevin Maguire:

Booster looks so serious. No doubt, he's just as frustrated by his prolonged absence from comic books as we are.

Here's a Maguire Booster sketch from happier times:

Obviously, Booster's happier in the high collar. Aren't we all?

This second commission comes from Matt Santori, who shared his commissioned sketch on Twitter in 2013. It's four years old and still looking Boosterrific!

Free Comic Book Day 2017 was this past Saturday, and artist Dave Acosta (of Vampirella and Red Sonja fame) was signing and sketching for fans at Detroit Comics. He posted pics of much of his work on his Twitter feed (@davedrawsgood), including a sketch of this handsome hero.

The high collar never goes out of style!
