Morenstern has unearthed a new YouTube video of Blue Beetle and Booster Gold. This time the pair are giving a presentation on how to be American super heroes to a crowd assembled at the 2011 Aki Con anime convention.

Why the pair is presenting their panel at an anime convention is a question that doesn't need asking. Wherever there is a paycheck or a public forum, there will be Blue and Gold.

This weekend, regular Boosterrific Forum participant Morgenstern called our attention to the YouTube videos of propjosh. Apparently, propjosh is a big Blue Beetle and Booster Gold fan, as evidenced by his many, many parody videos using DC Universe figures.

That's just the tip of the iceberg! For more than a dozen additional Blue & Gold videos, plus plenty more stuff, visit Propjosh's Parodies at Youtube.com.

Remember back before DC announced they were rebooting their entire shared universe and Booster Gold's only connection to Canada was that his Smallville appearance was filmed there? Those were the days.

Or perhaps you'll be spending the 3-day Labor Day weekend longing for the old days of Booster Gold, Volume 1, wherein Booster was little more than a smooth criminal with a time machine? Cracked.com has posted Brendan McGinley's article including Booster Gold as one of "7 Comic Characters Who Outlasted The Trends That Made Them." It's funny because it's true. (Thanks to Gregory Swarthout for pointing out that link.)

Good times, man. Good times.

UPDATE 09/02/11: It looks like Cracked has changed the release date of the "7 Comic Characters" article from September 1 to September 5, making you wait until Tuesday to read it. If you're impatient, maybe the Google cache link suggested by Morgenstern in the comments below will get you through the weekend.

I've watched this short video posted by rob52xbhs a dozen times since I discovered it on YouTube. Odette, I know just you feel. Booster just left me for the DCnU. Oh, Booster, how could you?

The video is taken from the movie The Swan Princess and the television series Justice League Unlimited episode "The Greatest Story Never Told" (an episode that just keeps on giving). The music is a stanza from song "Just a Dream" as performed by Sam Tsui and Christina Grimmie (as seen in another video also viewable on YouTube). The sentiment is pure Booster Gold.

It seems like for the past few months, I've been inundated with messages exclusively about Smallville, so I'm kind of surprised that no one had called this fan film posted to YouTube at the end of February to my attention yet.

I love the idea of mimicking a low-budget 1986 video, but at least put a collar on Booster! The theme song by Kristopher Fulton is Boosterrific but also dangerously infectious! (I simply can't get it out of my head.)

The video was made by a group of fans and video students calling themselves Super Unofficial. The official Super Unofficial website is here, but you can find their related Booster Gold and other hero videos (including Black Canary, Superman, and the Shadow) at youtube.com/SuperUnofficial.
