Don't forget Jack Bauer and Barney Stinson!
I had never heard of him personally, but will now read up on him.
Well that's to be expected. He's "The Greatest Hero You've Never Heard Of."
My recommendations:
MUST-READS:
- 52 (2006). 52 is pretty much the launching point for Booster Gold's current popularity, tells some amazing stories, and is the biggest reason I'm a DC fan now when I barely even touched a DC comic four years ago.
- Booster Gold (2007). Booster Gold is to 52 as Nova is to Annihilation. He gets the amazing ongoing.
- - Justice League International (1987). It's hilarious and in the top two of Justice Leagues (Grant Morrison's JLA is a tough competitor). It's amazing for a while, but by about Breakdowns (1991/1992), it's dodgy. I wouldn't quit until 1993 after Doomsday.
BACKSTORY:
- Booster Gold v1 (1986). I haven't read it, but it establishes a lot of the hero or non-hero Booster once was.
- Super Buddies (Formerly Known as the Justice League (2003), I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League (2005) ). More silly adventures of the core JLI guys.
- Countdown to Infinite Crisis, The OMAC Project, & Infinite Crisis (2005). Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, and Maxwell Lord feature heavily and is the basis for 52.
- Justice League: Generation Lost (2010). Booster Gold & the JLI. Great read most of the time.
OTHER:
- Brightest Day (Justice League: Generation Lost)
- Identity Crisis (52, Super Buddies =( )
NON COMIC:
- Justice League Unlimited, "The Greatest Story Never Told"
- Smallville, "Booster"
