By Rokk Krinn Booster Gold never fails to deliver a quality read. DC has a real gem on their hands with this title. Johns and Katz are in the midst of giving us a wild tale as Booster and Blue Beetle deal with the repercussions of saving Ted’s life from Maxwell Lord. I’m positive that Booster Gold #8 will be another fine read. Let’s hit this review. Booster Gold and Blue Beetle are the only heroes still alive. Lord then shoots Blue Beetle in the shoulder. Lord then says that there is much more going on with Booster Gold than he ever imagined. Lord demands that Booster Gold tell him everything that he knows about time travel. [read the full post]
