As an answer to Booster’s powers, he doesn’t have any, he has a super high tech suit. Probably why he isn’t drawn as bulky as Superman. The strength doesn’t come from him. It comes from his suit.
Though he was a football player.
That he stole
@@HypercomboProduction yes he is an athlete but all his superhuman feats are from future tech not his physiology
And a legion of super heroes flight ring. Yeah the dude was just some initially who traveled back in time with future tech to become a super hero. Though current lore goes hard with him being rip hunter (of the time masters) father.
@@mrroboshadow I was explaining why he is bulky, not his superpowers.
"It's like rats. When you've got rats, you need a rat guy. No one wants to be the rat guy, but someone's gotta do it. That's me--i'm time's Rat Guy."
-Booster Gold, _Batman: The Brave and The Bold_
Slight correction that quote is from Justice League Action
I would fully expect Batman to know exactly what happened by the time he got back to the Watchtower. The facts are that a) Booster left his post without authorization, b) tried to contact J'onn about something seemingly of high importance, and c) when asked to explain point a, he brushed off BATMAN. Three things that warrant an investigation that Batman would probably have done in minutes.
Batman likely already knows the truth by the time he says he wants to talk with Booster. That or he suspects the truth. The thing with booster gold is he wants to be famous and rich but he’ll do some of the most amazing things with little to no fanfare knowing that he won’t get any recognition for it. This episode was a good example of him doing something great that goes unnoticed by most people because something else was going on.
I know Batman complimented Booster one time, but that was erased
Most likely Batman already had some ideas of what happened or knew (kinda hard to miss a random building coming to life and never becoming a problem and a walking black hole) but wanted to confirm that booster learned his lesson
He actually might. In the comics since JLI batman seen the potential for a hero booster could be but mkre or less said he needs some work to work out the bad bits.
In Booster Gold solo run batman was the one who gave booster a chance to rejoin the Justice League when no one would give him a chance.
At the end of one story Batman reveals to booster he found out about his great deeds because of Bootser trying & failing to save barbara gordon.
Rip hunter let those photos exist to give booster at least one person to know how great booster is.
Fun fact: in the comics, Batman started to question why Booster Gold was even in the League so he grilled him about it. Booster SHOWED him that he had traveled through time and saved the world a thousand times over, traumatizing Batman.
Batman never questioned him about his activities again.
In fact, that suit Booster is wearing is so powerful that he can make barriers that can withstand the planet being disintegrated into atoms. The man is, quite literally, the greatest hero you have never heard of.
For a quick explanation of Booster's abilities: His suit is made of various high tech gadgets from the future. He's got a Legion flight ring, enhanced durability, super strength, force fields that make him nearly invulnerable, energy blasts from his gauntlets, and thanks to his visor, enhanced vision and hearing.
So a cooler, shinier Superman
@@A.Z.296 More like Captain Atom minus the durability problems. In addition, that force field is NO JOKE it took full power hits from Superman Prime( the same Prime that affected the entire DC multiverse with his punches.) The only times that shield has ever been overcome was by energy absorbers or running out the battery.
„The greatest hero you never heard of“ is the best description to Booster Gold there is tbh.
An episode just like this showcases how terrible it would be to live in some of these superhero universe. Yes you have an ancient evil wizard wreaking havoc on the city turning skyscrapers into monsters, but at the same time some guy is walking around with a blackhole in his chest.
Most normal day in Metropolis:
@@leithaziz2716 Better than Gotham. Can't even have a chili cookout without something going wrong.
@@chrimsonphantomit would be more wrong if a chili cookout didn’t go wrong. That’s how fucked Gotham is
@@GokuBlackRose978 It did happen where they had a chili cook out and the mayor was going to take the first official bite. Only for the chili to be spiked with a hot sauce so hot, that the mayor was choking. Just so the Joker can come in with a fire truck to hose him down. So yeah even for the most mundane events, you can expect a villain to pop in to crash the party.
Then again for having the highest crime rates, Gotham loves having events where something extremely valuable is being donated, or a bunch of the richest people in the city are gathering.
@@chrimsonphantom crazy stuff, I wonder how the hell gotham hasn’t been entirely destroyed at this point.
The "Maybe they needed a vase" comment always gets a chuckle out of me.
Honestly the best line in the episode.
Im not even gonna lie, hearing that monologue about Booster Gold from Skeets almost sounded like it was some Futurama exposition Dialogue, fitting it was by Fry's voice actor
It is the kind of presentation Zap Brannigan would self narrate to hype himself up.
That's probably why they did it
I like how this episode perfectly depicts Booster Gold and why he’s such a great character. It also shows what a good hero should be which this show excels at.
Your title is wrong. The episode is about Green Lantern not who Booster is
Love this
Good one
Exactly 😂

Who’s booster
@9:20 in all fairness to Dr. Brown, I bet he’s in shock from suddenly having a black hole in his chest. And from personal experience, shock is one hell of a drug. Got bit in the face by a dog, and my response after it happened was to calmly walk through the house to find my mom while leaving a trail of blood instead of either calling her on the phone or shouting out that I needed help.
What I love most about Booster Gold in this episode, Is that he learns that he doesn't need to impress people in order for them to think he's a hero. And that the also didn't need to impress the girl in the episode either, He just needed to be himself.
I love how Booster Gold didn’t get acknowledged for his victory in this episode by the league. But he gets the girl. While Elongated Man got praised, but was forced to clean up the mess.
Edit: Thanks for clarifying that it was Elongated Man and not Plastic Man ^^
Sorry but it's Elongated man not Plastic man
Squeaky Wheel, Buddy. Squeaky Wheel.
Also Elongated Man is married. To a wonderful woman. I don't think he minds not getting the damsel.
I think Plastic Man was mentioned at some point, we just never see him in the action.
@@1Braincell138I think the reason why plastic man was brought up was because elongated man has a bit of a vendetta with him. They have the same powers its just plastic man is a bit more popular.
4 things on Booster Gold:
Booster was a high school footballer who had a back injury that made it impossible to continue his game career. This pushed him into a museum security guard job which ended up being beneficial to him as he hijacked the museum AI (Skeets) and fixed/stole the museum's defunct time machine that was Rip Hunter's.
Rip Hunter is a big name time traveler in DC. His father _is_ Booster Gold thus his future creates his past - a bit of a Paradox, no?
In Smallville, Booster's suit had sponsers on it.
Generally in comics, Booster teams up with Ted Kord's Blue Beetle and that means their adventures, depending on continuity, occur both before and after Ted Kord's death.
Absolute respect for this episode, and I love how Batman could tell that booster was being serious when he wasn't bosting about what he did.
Billy West doesnt just voice Fry in Futurama, he also does the Professor, Zoidberg and Zapp Brannigan.
But given that he is basically using Frys voice for Skeets, its understandable why that was the only one shown
Fry's voice is famously just Billy West using his own voice. He said in an interview that impersonators were really good at copying fake voices, but real voices were much harder.
My introduction to Booster Gold was picking up an issue in the Death of Superman comics and seeing him get beat nearly to death by Doomsday after giving him his name.
This episode sort of feels like Astro City, where you’d have a story about how the multiverse threatening event affects one man who had his wife erased from history and the like.
Booster Gold: The greatest superhero you never heard of.
I think Booster might have brought the doctor along out of a semi-conscious desire to have her see him being a hero. He was starting to do the right sorta thing, but was still pretty focused on his own glory, at least in regards to the pretty woman.
Yeah, that was my assessment as well. He probably brought her under the idea that she could give him pointers if he didn't know what he was looking at, but under the subconscious desire for her to see him being a hero.
And she wanted to come along because she felt the experiment going awry was her fault.
The only thing I know about booster gold is that he was once a criminal/ thief who wanted to do a little bit more, but he didn't have powers when he felt he needed them. So he stole a bunch of items that would help him replicate having some flowers from a museum in the future and then travel to the past to be with the greatest heroes of all time
He gets a really cool addition to his backstory in the comics. If you are curious, he eventually joins the time police organisation and it's later revealed that in the future, he will train the greatest time hero of them all.
There's more, but I'll leave it there in case i spoil it for people
Wasn't he a janitor at that museum?
@kidprime6863 i don't recall but it's highly possible
He wasn’t a thief. He was a football player who was caught betting on his own games cause he and his mother needed the money
@@Animestar21 Which, as long as you're betting on yourself to win, I don't see a problem with it. #JusticeForPeteRose
Booster's suit has a force field surrounding him at all times, which is why he survived the train
Wait until you review some of Boosters episodes in Brave & The Bold. That is the peak of his character in any adaptation.
The best thing about JLU is the moments that the fandom highlights are not necessarily the best action but when the hero act like hero’s or learn to be real hero’s
Anyone else love stories where the "hero" has the "A hero is needed for this situation... I guess they'll have to settle for me" moment?
YES!
That's why I like The Guardians of The Galaxy so much
@@PantherCat64 Honestly, it's in my top 5 for heroic story archetypes.
They do those stories pretty well, it’s great lol😊
Booster Gold is one the most durable superheroes in existence, due to an extremely powerful force field generated by his suit, he can also expand it, put it onto other people and even make it tougher, it has taken hits from Trigon and Superman and he still was fine after.
I love that Plastic Man is mentioned in this episode but never shows up in the whole series
Immediately followed this with the Brave and the Bold episode where Booster Gold and Batman team up with Ted Kord Blue Beetle in the past.
Booster Gold is basically Ironman with a force field that makes him as invulnerable is Superman.
I haven't read any of his comics but from my understanding him and Blue Beetle often do insane world saving in the background only for it never being known by the League so his treatment here is on point.
I love this episode and its focus on Booster Gold, showing that the most mundane/ and smallest people can have an exciting & meaningful impact on the world. Booster has always been one of the most unique DC characters since, despite being an egomaniac and glory hog, Booster does have moments when he shows how much of a hero he is and is willing to make the greatest sacrifices no one will know, plus his friendship with Ted Kord's Blue Beetle in the comics is super wholesome. Still, he's willing to do it if it means it will help others, and the idea of a superhero with imposter syndrome is fascinating to me. I can't wait to see him get his show set in James Gunn's upcoming DCU. I also love that the DCAU centred on crafting a world that wasn't our literal world but a world full of superheroes, vigilantes, metahumans, aliens, gods, magic users, Atlanteans, New Gods, etc... and didn't try too hard to reflect the real world at the time, but personify and bring to life a better world that we could achieve, which is a reason I love DC Universe since its showing us a world in which may look impossible but with true united dedication, this dream may one day become reality
I like to think the real reason Gold is in the league is because Batman recognised having a man from the future running around unchecked could be very disastrous for the future so he's keeping him around just to ensure he dose not mess up the timeline.
He's also greedy but noit really malicious, and seems cool on being on a team.
So Booster Gold went back in time for fame and glory, you’d think he’d use his knowledge of events to win bets and prevent disasters.
You should read 52. He does that and more, and shows why he really shouldn’t.
@@TheBlujy I'm going to guess something along the lines of "when you start to meddle with history, you won't be able to predict how much worse you can make it"
Granted, this version of Booster is not very smart.
There's a storyline where he saves Batman's parents and causes an apocalypse while doing so
@@OMartinez91 That story is complete trash and has no understanding of Booster at all, at any point in his history. Its the worst Booster story ever written, and I cant believe it ever got printed.
Booster Gold is a sideline hero that is more important than people realize. He typically stops threats to the timeline. However, it's hard to document time events like that so most people don't realize it. There was another series where Batman was teaming up with Booster to solver a time problem. Batman realized that Booster not only knows what he's doing, but is actually reliable as a hero. At the end of that episode Batman ends of reversing the event and they save the day, but Batman doesn't remember what happened. Only Booster does. It's also implied that this has happened other times and it's why he always approaches members on the league with more rapport than they remember.
9:58 to answer the strawberry question: strawberry contain aphrodisiac which can help improve libido and blood flow. So booster gold is gonna get lucky with dr simmons
Which I'm pretty sure he did lol
The strength of Booster’s suit which is what gives him his powers is incredibly powerful to the point where it can protect him against someone which mind control powerful enough to mind control the entire world.
Honestly deathbattle’s episode with him and Cable does do a good job summing up his character in then comics.
16:10 "I delivered a baby, Batman. It took a sec "
Halarious 😂😂😂
That would absolutely work. Guys can get weird when the subject of child birth comes up.
2:34 - I bet Blue Beetle vouched for him.
Okay but Booster could have just said, “Have J'onn read my mind later if you want an honest explanation.”
And then he’d at least start to be on their good side and maybe even get the missions he wanted.
Booster is a really complex hero that keeps getting the short stick by writers who never read up on him. He has an amazing series about how hes the secret time cop who protects the timeline, but everyone keeps ignoring it.
Hopefully the booster gold show that James Gunn has in the works does well puts some more light on booster as a character.
This was my introduction to Booster Gold as well & it's my favorite story about him
& Fun fact: he actually doesn't have any kind of super powers whatsoever; Booster's "powers" are all given to him by his suit. It also protects him from psionic attacks.
This was always easily in my top 5 JL episodes. I found Booster relatable in the sense of not being recognize for my contributions and just being dismiss by people in general when I was younger when this came out. Just getting one person to acknowledge you can be far more worth anything else at certain times.
@0:45 -having Fry explain that booster gold is a time traveler is a nice, probably unintentional, touch
Honestly part of me thinks it was intentional
he’s the greatest hero you never heard of til now and how true that statement really is especially when it comes to this episode and beyond
I do like the choice to have billy west the voice of fry, a nobody from the past, sent to the future and has a robot companion, to play skeets, a robot companion of a nobody from the future, sent to the past.
I REALLY love that moment where he says that kissing girls is for heroes, because it really shows how he's accepted that up that point he wasn't acting like a hero and was willing to let one of the things he wanted so badly slip away because he, for the most part, rightfully believed he wasn't worthy of that reward. Of course the fact he almost sacrificed his life to save the planet changed that.
Booster is one of the most interesting DC heroes with the right writer. "The greatest hero you've never heard of" is a major part of his character.
0:13 - Chill! Chill! Shady! 🤣
Just one line of dialogue from Brown would have explained him walking around, like, maybe, he can’t control himself, or he’s trying to get to Metropolis Park so he can just lay down on his back, black hole pointed at the sky to as to harm as few people as possible. Anything like thqt would have helped
I though he was in some type of daze or the like but no he talk.
Also have the female doctor talk about celebrating the collar.
Saw ‘Green Lantern’ in the thumbnail and immediately clicked
I'm making it my lifes mission to make you talk about Generator Rex. This is day #2
Anyone else think that Chris Pratt would be the perfect live-action Booster Gold? Heck, even his Star-Lord felt a bit like Booster to me.
Another fun fact about Booster is that his powers are tech based including a flight ring from when Clark was a member of The Legion of Superheroes. That could possibly be why Mordo was the villain
Booster gold is my favorite comic book character. The character is so misunderstood.
This is the episode that introduce me to Boost and ever since then he has been and always will be my favorite super hero. Thank you for this one.
This episode and justice league action made me enjoy watching booster gold, such a great character man
for the scientist guy
at first walking around could be attributed to being dazed, in shock or even possibly concussed
but as soon as he starts apologizing for putting people in danger and STILL feels the need to walk around, yeah dude is at fault for any further destruction
Booster gold is such a cool concept on what a time travlers goal might be.
This episode and a particularly excellent comic run with Booster made him one of my favorite DC characters.
"His strength is BUILDING level?" Is something I will need to say more often.
Booster gold has a hilarious part of his lore where if he ever becomes famous enough to be remembered he’ll actually create a time paradox but thankfully the universe itself conspires against him to make sure he never gets that recognition it’s kind of sysiphian but it makes good comedy
I think they have that Green Lantern joke cause in the comics Booster gold met sinestro And sinestro asked about his golden ring And Booster thinking fast Decided to say he was a part of a lantern csenestro asked which one so booster made a quick random choice That he was a part of the sinestro corps Keep in mind the only reason he got away With this excuse was only cut.He was from the future so estra thought He made a core of his own in the future Little did booster know the string of events he was about to cause So have you ever wondered why the yellow lanterns call themselves the sinestro corps and stuff Just the yellow lanterns , you know why 😂😅
Booster Gold in the comics is exactly how he's presented but his JLU episode is more of a microcosm of his character arc. Another thing worth note is that the wizard guy was also used a few times as a monster of the weak sort of deal for the JL comics and the Legion.
I love Booster Gold.
Ok J'john should have picked up the energy if the black hole from the watchtowers radar and SHOULD have alerted the others
Unless the high concentration of magical energy in the area was messing with the sensors
Still, that was pretty rude and not protocol of John, he should have listened to booster
@@GokuBlackRose978 J'onn's the Numbuh 362 of the league...he's got ka-leventy billion missions and leaguers to deal with....might be a bit overworked and he gets huffy when you even so much as suggest letting Mr. Terrific help him. Right? Of course not, but he doesn't like it when his system is outta whack...even when Wonder Woman orders him to take a break from monitor duty!
@@Superlad9494 yeah I know, it’s just….u would think he would atleast listen to booster for a moment
@@GokuBlackRose978 probably was more focused on the Mordru stuff...and we know he thinks like Bruce, he's just nicer about it.
It’s a pretty perfect intro to Booster as a character. They even did the joke about him being Green Lantern which was a running gag in the comics for a while.
Goes Into a burning building, saves some pets, and gets told ‘Thank you, Green Lantern!’
Ow, I don’t think Lex Luthor could do as much damage as that.
I get it's meant as a joke, but how do people keep mistaking him for Green Lantern. He doesn't have any green on him.
He isn't black either...
@thefanwithoutaface8105
Boosters belt gives him total indestructibility, so much so that if he takes it off he’s essentially bubble boy with zero immune system
Dr Brown more than likely was walking around since the black hole would slowly tear up through the layers of the Earth and eventually hit something important like the planets core. Though unspoken, I think this can justify him walking around as opposed to staying in one place.
Trying to explain why he was on the tracks
Skeetz: I got nothing
This episode introduced me to Booster Gold and turned me into a lifelong fan.
12:26 Actually being super durable is Booster's Main power outside of time travel (That is to say his suit anyway). He apparently has a special Force Field around him at all times that is so dense and powerful it actually blocks out Bacteria and even Mind Control in addition to regular damage. And yeah he also gains strength pretty comparable to most mid to high level League Members and can fly as fast as the Flash can run.
Booster might be a gloryhound but he does had legit power with that suit.
For anybody wondering, in the latest run of comics, elongated man’s wife was murdered
Ironically, this wasnt the first thing I thought of when I thought about a problematic situation involving Sue. Considering...
This episode is a great example of "I'm not the one you wanted, but I'm the one who showed up"
Saw booster and immediately thought this was about Brave and the Bold
I think this along with the new Justice League episode where Booster Gold secretly goes around stopping time parasites. Where yes what he's doing is actually heroic, but to him he considers it pest control and still wants to be someone like Batman.
Hank hill is a bigger hero than every hero in the justice league, in this essay I will show that propane and propane accessories were the true key to defeating the wizard and crowd control,
Nothing pleases and controls a crowd like a propane grilled steak, taste the meat, not the heat.
1:49 well he could be color blind
4:23 In John’s defense, he’s not know for handling his breakups (whether it’s consensual or forced) very well. Remember what happened in Justice League Beyond #7?
The Booster Gold comic is legit one of the best comics ever written.
4:39 A person can recognize the importance of a task and be seriously dedicated to doing it properly... and still hate doing it because it's a miserable experience.
14:40 for walking around with a black hole in my chest like a idiot if only he said that in the show 😂😂😂😂👍
Booster gold has a selfish reason for being a hero, but that doesn't change the fact that he is a hero
FINALLY! Booster gold is such an underated hero
Honestly, I feel like Justice League Action did a Booster Gold episode better. It's the same lesson, but instead of BG going back in time to get rich, he is "Time's rat guy". So he fights time anomalies between superhero assignments, but no one knows he does it.
Even better is that he doesn't see it as superhero work. It's a job.
I do recommend that series as it feels like a spiritual successor to JL/JLU. (Especially as Kevin Conroy is Batman.) It's a bit campy and more kid-friendly, but it has some really DEEP references.
This episode introduced me to my all time favorite superhero: Booster Gold, the Greatest Hero You've Never Heard Of.
They had an episode like this in Season 3 of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." It was called "The Zeppo," and it followed Xander around as he soloed his way through an adventure, saved the day, and lost his virginity to Faith. All while the rest of the Scoobies were saving the universe in the background on a different adventure. Great episode.
"Character is what you are in the dark."
- Attr. to Dwight L. Moody (American Evangelist, 1837-1899)
Booster Gold, the episode that proves that a lot of people are colourblind... According to my 12-year-old logic anyway.
Booster has an INSANE force field giving him that strength. That force field in the comics would let him fly into the black hole and back out again, it's absurd. The fact the league hasn't made him turn over the tech for study is just beyond ridiculous.
I love how the "damsel in distress" or "hero get's the girl" stories are considered toxic by some. I like to point out to these people that those stories they are complaining about are, for the most part, fictional (though, there is truth of the situation in them). If they want to complain about toxic pairings, real life pairings with death row inmates, rappists, and abusers probably should take your attention more than the story of a guy from the future getting into good graces with a gal after putting a techno-collar on her partner which stopped a black hole in his chest which the guy was half inside. These things are not equivalent. Get some perspective.
I feel like the Ultimen episode would be a good one to dissect with what it means to be a hero!
I'm just happy to see Ralph... Its ok shady, that didn't happen in this universe
I vividly remember this episode growing up, wasn’t expecting to see it here
1:15 "Protecting his past to ensure your future" reminds me of the Time Squad motto. Which goes, "Enforcing the past, to protect our future".
"for the last time" I love the way he delivers that line.
This was my first introduction to booster gold and this show too lol
I literally just rewatched this episode on my dvd set the other day this week lol the timing couldn’t be better for this video
3:24 that sigh always made me think it was to shut Booster up, like "well it's a warm body they'll be able to use him for something I'm sure" lol
This is the best Green Lantern episode
I never watched the sound of music, I even remember several times I elected to watch something else or just wasn't watching tv with the person watching it. But if I did. I would have known you were not saying "Al vide se" (spanish loosely meaning to your life) you were saying Auf wiendershen. Funny to pin down a moment that I would've learned something rather than remembering a time I did learn it.
