After a year atop the sales charts, DC is now being beaten by Marvel NOW!. You know what would put you back on top, DC? Another huge event in which Booster Gold rolls back Flashpoint.

And SyFy, Booster Gold fans are obviously expecting a television show before the end of the year. Don't let us down.

Last week's poll question: What do you most expect to see Booster Gold doing in 2013? (33 votes)

Booster Gold's many costumes have found a place in the JLA Trophy Room, but they say the clothes don't make the man. Surely there must be something else museum worthy in Booster Gold's adventures!

Wednesday, IGN.com published an interview between Jesse Schedeen and Andrew Kreisberg. Most of the Q&A focuses on The CW's Arrow, which Kreisberg executive produces, but Schedeen managed to save the most important question for last:

IGN Comics: Before we end off, I wanted to ask about another show you've been working on. Back during SDCC you revealed that you were preparing to submit your first script for the Booster Gold series you're developing for SyFy. Is there any update on that show right now?

Kreisberg: [laughs] I got a little waylaid by Arrow. Booster Gold is going in in the next couple weeks before Christmas. We'll see what happens from there. It's such a different project even though they're both DC Comics properties. Booster is much more candy and popcorn, being about time travel and changing the future and being a superhero who can fly. But they're both super-fun projects. As a lifelong DC Comics fan, I am beyond blessed to be working on these projects with all these amazing characters.

Booster Gold fans certainly have something to look foward to this Christmas season! Thanks to Russ Burlingame at ComicBook.com and MetalWoman in the Boosterrific Forum for bringing this bit of good news to our attention.

More than 3 million people are watching Arrow each week, not a far cry from the numbers that Smallville was pulling in its final season. Given that the CW approved a full season of episodes, it would seem that the network is happy. But the only question that matters is how Booster Gold fans feel about the show.

Last week's poll question: How have episodes of Arrow influenced your expectations for a Booster Gold television show from the same producers? (40 votes)

Arrow has changed a lot while adapting Green Arrow for television. Some modifications are to be expected as the character moves away from his source material, but it's not like characters don't change over time even in their native comic book format. Even Booster Gold has changed a little since his 1985 debut.

Outside of Luthor's brief term in office, DC comics have traditionally had benevolent Presidents, at least so far as the agenda of super heroes have been concerned. It's always Senators who are the really evil ones. (Just ask Booster Gold his opinion of Senator Ballard.)

Last week's poll question: In comic books, would you rather have a good President or an evil one? (33 votes)

Enough politics. Let's talk about something that really matters: television.

Since you're reading this post on a website devoted to the greatest hero in the history of whichever DC Universe you prefer, you are interested in the Booster Gold series in development by the SyFy network. There has been precious little information about that show so far, but that's because the producers have been busy with a show based on a different colorful DC hero: Green Arrow.

Arrow debuts tonight on The CW, and it may provide the best clues to what producers Marc Guggenheim and Andrew Kreisberg have in mind for Booster Gold. If the title is any indication, we know that SyFy's show will probably be called just Booster. For any more hints, we'll have to watch The CW tonight at 8:00 PM EST.
