BoosterGold: All the key stories you need to read about the greatest hero you've never heard of!
Earlier today, James Gunn and Peter Safran unveiled DC Studios' initial slate of film and TV projects. With a mix of safe and strange choices, the slate is bound to be analyzed by fanboys and industry insiders for the next couple of years, at least until Superman: Legacy drops in theaters and we start to get a sense for how it's working. Among the revelations for Booster Gold, the greatest hero you've never heard of.
"Think of it basically as a story of a superheroes imposter syndrome," Gunn said of his take."And how do you deal with that? How does he try to use this future technology to be loved by people today? And what is really the base of that and it's a character study. that's going to be a very different type of show. and we are talking to an actor about this right now and I think that's going to happen.
These stories tell of Booster's earliest days, when he first came to the past to become a hero. They deal with him navigating life as a businessman in a world where everyone he knows, only knows him as an employer or source of income. It also introduces Booster's complicated family dynamic, and gives you plenty of moments that are funny and relevant as Booster makes himself the world's most famous superhero pitchman.
prevnext The Death of Superman The hero from the future came face to face with something that he couldn't help stop, even though he knew what was coming. He even helped name the beast: Doomsday. The story that killed Superman and made Booster Gold creator Dan Jurgens a superstar, also took Booster off the table for a while and set him on a course that would make for some of the most difficult times of his life.
In any case, this volume established Booster as a Time Master and showed that he has to constantly lean into his own bad reputation and humble himself again and again, in the interest of doing what's right for the multiverse. It's also where he established a close friendship with Batman, one of the only people who knows his secret.
prevnext Blue & Gold Between Flashpoint and Blue & Gold, there are some fun stories -- Jurgens penned a Justice League International adventure, and Booster's story in Convergence was quite good -- but none of them are especially relevant to who the character is in the popular consciousness.
