Save a Tree, Watch TV

It's kind of comforting to know that every canceled title was somebody's favorite.

Last week's poll question: Which other character(s) of a recently-canceled New 52 title should join the JLI next? (41 votes)

Which other character(s) of a recently-canceled New 52 title should join the JLI next?

Beginning last week, DC is now publishing Smallville: Season 11 online as a weekly digital comic. If this is the beginning of a trend in how the company plans to handle the ongoing continuity of its television licenses, how will this new digital initiative affect Booster Gold comics should SyFy decide to produce the series?

SyFy Reads Booster Gold

Booster Backer Morgenstern calls our attention to Michael Stevens of Sneakpeek.ca, who on Friday, April 13, 2012, reported:

Syfy confirms it now has a pilot script, written by Andrew Kreisberg ("Fringe") for a one-hour drama based on the DC Comics superhero character "Booster Gold", to be executive produced by Greg Berlanti ("Brothers & Sisters").

I haven't seen confirmation of this yet anywhere else on the web, but I sure would like for it to be true (especially if it's any good).

Super Singing Friends

The following blog post has been brought to you by the Super Friends of DC Comics fan blogging: Shag of Firestorm fan site FirestormFan.com pointed out this weekend that Lia of Flash fan site SpeedForce.org posted a video last week from Cartoon Network's Mad that features Booster Gold. (Sometimes tracking Booster Gold, like life, is all about who you know.)

That song sounds to me like something you might hear on TMZ. That's probably fitting for a song including a part by the celebrity-seeking Booster Gold.

For the record, that video, posted to YouTube by Vitouliss, was broadcast in the MAD episode "Al Pacino and the Chipmunks / That's What Super Friends Are For" that originally aired February 27, 2012.

Green Arrow Shafts Booster Gold

Yesterday, the CW Network released a pic of Green Arrow from the Arrow pilot. This is bad news. Follow my logic:

  1. The CW and SyFy request scripts for Green Arrow and Booster Gold respectively from Berlanti Productions
  2. Berlanti makes a Green Arrow script that CW likes enough to turn into a pilot and publicly promote.
  3. Berlanti focuses on the project that is most likely to make them money.
  4. Therefore, the Booster Gold television project slides into development hell.

Pilot season for Fall 2012 is almost over, and there has been no new news about a Booster Gold pilot. In Hollywood, no news is bad news. It is beginning to look like we won't be seeing Booster Gold on TV this fall. Maybe next year?

The Second Best Around

Probably no surprise following his golden performance in Smallville, but Eric Martsolf garnered the best response in last week's poll. Even if he doesn't land the role (and I can't really imagine that he'd want to leave Days of Our Lives for a shot at a series on ScyFy), he'll always be television's first live-action Booster Gold and have a place in our hearts.

Last week's poll question: Who would you like to see cast as Booster Gold? (42 votes)

Who would you like to see cast as Booster Gold?

In a poll two weeks ago, I asked you to choose your favorite Booster Gold comic from among the books with the best fan ratings here at Boosterrific.com. This week, I'm asking you to choose your favorites from some of the books that have earned my personal highest ratings. No matter which you vote for this week, there are no losers in this bunch.



[If you need your memory jogged, here are the links to the issues in question: Booster Gold, v1 #18; Justice League #4; Justice League Quarterly #1; Superman, v2, #74; 52 Week 15.]
