Smallville: Booster Gold Talk

Smallville: Booster Gold Talk

In talking about the upcoming Smallville episode Booster with Digital Spy, guest star Eric Martsolf revealed a bit of information - which isn't too far removed from the Booster Gold character of the comics.

"The episode takes place in Booster's very early stages where he's at his conceited best, where he believes he can do whatever he wants," Martsolf said. "He's gonna stay for the photo op and bask in the glory of his heroic efforts. He's a glory-seeking showboat from the future. [Clark] wants to stand in the back and not be a glory hound. [He and Booster] are completely opposites of one another."

"Booster" airs April 22nd on the CW.

"This is the first time the scarab comes on to Jaime, so it creates a bulkier, more dangerous armor," Johns says. "Ultimately he'll gain more control over the scarab and it will become more friendly looking." I got this from the full article in tv guide.

Thank you @90-caliber, I was about to post the same thing... who are we to say that Geoff Johns doesn't know his comics well enough to know what he is doing? Seriously...

And yeah... Skeets is a funny name!

I didn't remember much about Booster (other than the costume and shades) so I had to look him up and he's like the coolest superhero ever!

He screws up in the future so he goes back in time with all kinds of weapons and knowledge and becomes a superhero just for the glory. lol that's so awesome.

Booster and Bettle costumes looked good to me.

Glad they're leaving Booster as his arrogant, glory basking self. He and Beetle both look great, hopefully they'll include Billy West as Skeets.

Booster spin off fall 2011! Can't believe Smallville's show-runners and CW are going to say adiós to a popular ten year old show without even attempting to try a spin off. Truly, for all the whining fan-boys have continued on about this show not many TV programs have the stuff to propel it for an entire decade!
