Booster Gold as The Traveler
TVLine.com has reported a casting call for the upcoming Arrow/Flash spin-off. Included in the list of "mystery" characters is the description of someone who might be familiar to Boosterrific visitors:
"THE TRAVELER" : Described as a Han Solo-esque rogue who gets by with his charm, this hero hails from the future, and has journeyed back in time on a secret mission. His razor-sharp wit hides the pain of a man who has lived through serious conflict. He also harbors many secrets, always leaving both his teammates and the audience unsure of his true allegiances.
TVLine (and just about everyone else on the Internet, including our pal Russ Burlingame) thinks this is most likely Rip Hunter. Of course, The DC Universe has no shortage of time travelers, so it could just as easily be Waverider or the Time Trapper or Valor. But it just might be Booster Gold.
Whoever it turns out to be, The CW sure has our attention. In the meantime, if you have a theory, I invite you to join the conversation in the Boosterrific Forum.

Bricklayers Unite
I don't think that Booster Gold fans should have to choose. I want to see Booster Gold in movies and television, animated and live-action!
Last week's poll question: In which medium would you be most excited to see Booster Gold in action? (63 votes)
I wasn't in love with LEGO Batman 2, but then it didn't have Booster Gold in it!

In Living Color
I think that anyone who has been buying comics books for as long as I have has to admit that they make terrible investments.
Last week's poll question: How do you respond to news that Booster Gold v1 #1 is spiking in value? (53 votes)
Two-hour movie or 22-episode television show? Live-action or animation? What format would you like to see Warner Brothers give the Booster Gold treatment?

Know When to Hold 'Em
Wow. If Booster Gold fans are any indication, The Flash seems to be a huge hit.
Last week's poll question: Will you watch The Flash if Booster Gold is in it? (69 votes)
Now that we've discovered that our Booster Gold collections have increased in value (by a factor of ten!), what are your plans?

Comic Book Speculating
Not too long ago, there was a brief discussion in the Boosterrific Forum about an apparent price increase in Booster Gold back issues. At the time, I assumed that it couldn't have anything to do with a Booster Gold television show because it had been a few years since there was any news on that front. But when have comic book prices ever been based on reality?
The website Comic Book Scalping last week recommended Booster Gold, Volume 1, #1 as a target issue for speculators looking to buy low and sell high.
A year ago, collectible copies of the issue (very fine or better) could be had for only $3, but now ComicsPriceGuide.com currently values those same issues at about $30 or more. On eBay.com, you'll find high-grade slabbed copies going for over $200!
I can't think of any reason that Booster's first appearance is going up in price so quickly other than the persistent rumors that he might be coming to television. So hang on to your copies, Booster boosters. Speculators will be beating down our doors if DC ever gets that much-anticipated television series off the ground!
