Booster by the Bottle
Last week's Teen Titans #6 introduced us to Booster Gold Coffee, sold via vending machine. Name brand coffee is only the most recent beverage venture for Booster. In addition to Sundoller Coffee, previous drinks endorsed by Booster include DC's best-selling Soder-Cola, Enlongated Man's preferred Gingold Soda, and Lit Beer. Outside of comic books, Booster has been known to shill beverages such as Booster's Super Soda seen in Batman: the Brave and the Bold video game.
For those longing to taste Booster's wares, Darkseid's Draperies has posted the following suggestion:
My friends and I just invented a drink we are calling a Booster Gold. It's amazing and tastes like a creamsicle. It's about half a can of sprite, a splash of pinnacle cake vodka, and a splash of orange juice.
As a teetotaler, I have absolutely no way to judge whether that would taste good or not. But I have to say that I think a drink named after Booster Gold is an idea too good to miss.

It's Going to Be a Late Night
Who says that gentlemen don't like to laugh?
The above art -- a re-tasked spread from the December 2011 issue of GQ magazine -- comes to us from Catalog Heroes, a tumblr blog dedicated to turning our fav celebs and models into our fav spandexed heroes. Certainly, Blue Beetle and Booster Gold never looked so good. You can see more here.

It's Hip to Be Square
When Booster Gold was created in 1985, Nintendo was in the process of revolutionizing home video gaming. The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) had 2 KB of video RAM and a 54 color palette.
At the time that was amazing. In 2012, it's nostalgic.
The above image was created by PixelBlock, a tumblr blog devoted to creating pixelated versions of pop culture icons. You can see more here.

Giving Thanks for Beefcake
Happy Thanksgiving. Take your time, enjoy your meal. Let Booster Gold take care of the dishes.
Artist Erica Henderson hints that she wants to do a 2013 DC beefcake calendar on her blog I Fail At Life, That's Why I Became An Artist. That sounds like something we can give thanks for.

Mis-Remembered Heroes
Are you already nostalgic for the old DC Universe? Do you long for a Booster Gold who shook hands with President Reagan? Do you already miss his old costume? Well, Remembered Heroes has your back. Reintroducing Booster Gold, as you knew and loved him:
The above image of Booster Gold was drawn from memory by a professional artist with a bad memory. Maybe it's not entirely accurate, but at least it's period appropriate: Booster Gold the Beer Can has an old-fashioned pull tab.
