    I cannot begin to describe how psyched I am for this book. Booster is one of my favorite DC characters and I can't wait to see him grab the spotlight again. The time travel aspect sounds like a winning idea for Booster, and should give him a unique angle that makes him stand out from the other DC hero books. Toss in one of DC's better writers and Booster's creator on art, and we're looking at a very promising title.

    And Guy Gardner and the JLI in the first issue? No way I'm not totally sold on this book. :D

    Actually he wasn't killed in 52. It involved time manipulation so its a bit of a bitch to explain, but he didn't die.

    And this is a bit of topic, but do you have a pausing problem? lol. JP!

    Well it's a time travel book, and we already know the JLI will make at least one appearance. I'd say there's a good chance we'll be seeing Ted from time to time.

    Awesome! I can't wait for this. With Geoff Johns attached it's sure to have some nice re-worked continuity elements to it.
