Today, DC Comics has announced an eight-issue miniseries Blue Beetle and Booster Gold fans are going to love. Affectionately titled Blue & Gold, the series is written by Dan Jurgens with art by Ryan Sook and is set for release July 20th.
So what’s it about?
Desperate to regain the spotlight, Booster Gold looks to attract the public’s (and Justice League’s) attention the same way any washed-up, second-rate hero would—social media. The not-so-tech-savvy hero from the 25th century enlists the help of his best friend, Blue Beetle, who possesses both the money and the brains to help his old pal navigate the scary world of internet influencers.
Check out the main cover by Sook and the card stock variant cover by Dave Johnson below.
