Scott Lobdell Interview

Found here.

What's Booster Gold 's current canon ?

Is he the new 52 version? The old one? Was he split into two like Lois and Clark? (It doesn't make sense to me unless he was.) I recall Giffin said he considered the Charleston stuff canon for Ted and implying the JLI stuff never happened. That means he doesn't know Booster, right? Is Booster really selfish and if so how does the time travel stuff fit in? I hope Jurgens answers some of this.

My Reading List for 2018 thus far

I really wasn't feeling the solicits for March so I won't be doing my usual write up. A lot of them don't really hype me up like usual.

Red Hood and the Outlaws # 17 Vol. 2

The Outlaws have to work with the Suicide Squad.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Shipping Drama

I avoid shows based on how crazy their fans are over shipping. I said it before but it needs to be repeated: I would never have gotten into RWBY if I knew how bad the obsession with pairing up characters was. This should not be something you scream at creators for and in the case of RHATO I think it's especially strange to get upset over it.

Action Comics #993

Also known as the return of Booster Gold !

Roman Sionis wasn't cool

Sure Lobdell made Black Mask awesome but as I previously stated I don't think Roman was supposed to be the BM he was writing. Because the character acted differently than Lobdell wrote.

What are they saying?

I saw this game online and wanted to take a shot at it.

Wednesday is the return of Booster Gold !

I know the preview came out but I want to be entirely surprised when I read it. I decided to get it digitally since I didn't want to wait for the mail. Good thing too since my RHATO order is delayed. I might just get that early too by paying for it instead of waiting for the code. I'm so happy to see Booster again especially the Jurgens art.

What is Booster's destiny?

A storyline that's been unanswered since Millennium.

The cutest Constantine appearance

I'd read a whole book with him doing nothing but hanging out with the Kents.

Does Bruce still have issues with metas?

I remember Bruce being distrustful of some and wanting his kids to be more wary of them. It depended on who wrote him. This "don't trust anyone with powers" mind frame seemed to come up when they were romantically interested in them.

It happened when Kon-El and Cass liked each other. He encouraged Barbara saying that the thing "with the alien" (Kori dating Dick) wouldn't last. I remember he also didn't go to the almost wedding of Dick and Kori. Is Bruce nicer now, at least in this regard?

'Tis the season to be exhausting

I've been fairly busy lately and I still haven't gotten most of the stuff I need to do out of the way. I'm more than aware of Batman Ninja being the first movie--animated or not--to have all four male Robins. The designs aren't what I expected but I'm going to hold off on commenting until I see the movie. I'm just excited to have them together for the first time which immediately makes it far more interesting than the current ones that only use Dick and Damian.

Since my sister and BIL are asking for more back issues I also decided to get the crossover between Superman, TT and Super Sons. I'll give it to them after the event ends. This month I'm sending them all the Batman & Robin and Super Sons issues I currently have.

I did ask my BIL what he thought of the BatCat engagement and he said he couldn't get through the first King arc so he's not going to read anymore. My sister just laughed so I don't think she's interested either.
