This was exciting and thrilling from beginning to end. Top notch action, and I really liked the opening sequence that showed us a moment of the real Booster.
There is quite a few characters in this storyline, but all are written well and evenly and have their own distinct personalities, something hard to do with a big cast. Hats off for a great job!
And both covers were awesome as well! Great 5 star job!

Woof! This was a rollercoaster ride, and worth the wait!
And what the Hell is a Zero Hour?

BWA-HA-HA! This was great! I especially loved Booster and Timeflux's fight through the ages, very funny. And nice quoting "The Time Machine" for Skeets's key phrase...took me a second to figure out why Rip was talking so fancy-dan.  |

Roller coaster ride is right! This was an issue that amped up the volume to 'eleven'. You jam packed this with action and some great scenes that really make the story flow quickly and smoothly. I love the way you continue to fit in little pop-culture references like the opening line from 'The Time Traveler', Blue Beetle's joke quote from 'Star Wars' when the hologram appeared, and the closing line that was from 'Quantum Leap'. I'm going to guess that Timeflux is an alternate reality version of Booster Gold (kind of like his own 'Reverse Flash' type nemesis). The fight on NEw Genesis was wild and well written, but the fight with Booster Gold and Timeflux tumbeling through time was just awesome. Brilliant use of it. I'm very interested in whatever 'Zero Hour' is. I'm guessing you're doing a crossover? What will this be about? Great job. Total five stars. and the two covers were very well done. I would have liked to see Blue Beetle and Big Barda on the fight scene of the cover, but I'm sure there wasn't enough room. The alternate cover was funny. Very good job.

This was exciting and thrilling from beginning to end. Top notch action, and I really liked the opening sequence that showed us a moment of the real Booster. I'm pleased you enjoyed it so much Bri. It's pretty important to me that people get a sense of the guy Booster has become. Going what he has gone through he really needed to grow. There is quite a few characters in this storyline, but all are written well and evenly and have their own distinct personalities, something hard to do with a big cast. Hats off for a great job! Thanks again. The large cast is going to be taking quite a back seat. After the next issue (which is a tie-in for Zero Hour) we'll be getting some solo Booster action. And both covers were awesome as well! Great 5 star job! Weren't they though? Great job as always by Syl. |

Woof! This was a rollercoaster ride, and worth the wait! Thanks Charlie. Rollercoaster was exactly the thing I was shooting for with the action scenes and the fight-thru-time sequence. And what the Hell is a Zero Hour? Ah... nothing much... only the BIGGEST thing to hit the DC2 is a long time! ;D |

And nice quoting 'The Time Machine' for Skeets's key phrase...took me a second to figure out why Rip was talking so fancy-dan. Glad you liked it Susan! Thanks for reading! And yes, the key to trigger Skeet's memory chip was the first line from The Time Traveler. Sneaky huh?  |

Roller coaster ride is right! This was an issue that amped up the volume to 'eleven'. You jam packed this with action and some great scenes that really make the story flow quickly and smoothly. This was one of my favorite issues to write. I really was hoping that the "smash-mouth" pace of it worked... and it seems to have worked in spades. Glad you enjoyed it Shadow! I love the way you continue to fit in little pop-culture references like the opening line from 'The Time Traveler', Blue Beetle's joke quote from 'Star Wars' when the hologram appeared, and the closing line that was from 'Quantum Leap'. Bingo! You got 'em all. I'm a total Pop reference whore. I can't help it. I'm going to guess that Timeflux is an alternate reality version of Booster Gold (kind of like his own 'Reverse Flash' type nemesis). Ah, and you would guess wrong. Timeflux is very much tied into Booster... mainly because Booster accidentally helped create him... and he doesn't even know it! The funny thing is... all the readers of Booster Gold DO and they don't realize it yet. The fight on NEw Genesis was wild and well written, but the fight with Booster Gold and Timeflux tumbeling through time was just awesome. Brilliant use of it. Thanks! I've been waiting to use that scene for a while now. I didn;t want to until it really fit andf I think it fit perfectly well here. I'm very interested in whatever 'Zero Hour' is. I'm guessing you're doing a crossover? What will this be about? Well, I don't know if the word 'crossover' describes it... I would cal it a DC2 'Event'. It's gonna be BIG, Shadow. HUGE. MAMMOTH. Trust me. Great job. Total five stars. and the two covers were very well done. I would have liked to see Blue Beetle and Big Barda on the fight scene of the cover, but I'm sure there wasn't enough room. The alternate cover was funny. Very good job. Thanks for reading and please keep coming back! |

It's not just this issue I want to praise but the whole series. Before I read this my only exposure to Booster Gold was his appearance in Justice League Unlimited. I had thought about picking up his series when it got good reviews but never did although if it's anywhere near as good as this I'm definitely gonna pick it up.

Thanks Nightwing! High praise indeed! Glad to have you aboard! For more Booster (and time travel action) check out Zero Hour!
And Booster Gold will be back here at the end of August!
