Geoff Johns Talks "Booster"

Geoff Johns has revealed some small details about his upcoming episode, "Booster," in a recent interview posted at the Comic Book Resources website.

"I literally just finished the script before Christmas," Johns revealed in the interview when asked about the upcoming "Booster" episode, and he again confirmed that it's the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle that will be teaming up with Booster Gold. "We introduced [this version of the character] back during Infinite Crisis. I always like the chemistry between him and Booster, so when I was going to do this episode, I wanted to do those two together and I think the story that we came up works really well. It’s very Booster 1.0, meaning he’s in the early stages of his career as a hero -- and is pretty self-serving."

As for what else there is to expect from the episode, Johns says we'll see Blue Beetle's origin, Booster's first meeting with Clark and Lois, and "maybe a cameo by someone from Kord Industries."

Sounds good.

Thanks for the info on that, Jet. I'm not as familiar with these two characters, so I have the slight advantage of going into this ep with no pre-conceived notions.

Also a bit ignorant on this: What the significance of Kord Industries? Sounds like a Klingon operation.

I am not too familiar either...but I believe it has to do with Ted Kord The second Blue Beetle. Geoff said Ted would might make an appearance at CC.

I could be wrong...AY might be able to straighten this out.

Five eps after 'Booster'... I really hope that the PSW can pull it all together and give us a satisfying ending in just 5 eps.

If the eps up to "Booster" can lay some ground work to finish the season & series off properly then the last 5 eps shouldn't be a problem...stay tuned!

Jet is correct about Kord Industries. It was run by Ted Kord who was the Blue Beetle before Jamie Reyes and was killed by Max Lord at the end of Countdown to Infinite Crisis. Jamie Reyes was created by Geoff Johns. This is the version of the character which the infamous test footage from this past year was of for the proposed "Blue Beetle" spin off series. I wouldn't be surprised if "Booster" laid the ground work for the final five episodes similar to how "Legion" did the same for season seven.

I would be.

And the Legion really didn't.

Smallville is shit with continuity.

I watched the first couple episodes of the new season of Californication the other day and I shit myself laughing senseless about how interconnected every episode is that there is so much shit left up in the air and bouncing off other crap from almost every season and...

In other words, ignore the last 9 or 10 episodes and stay tuned for the last five minutes of the series finale. You'll have missed nothing.

^ Like always with "Smallville". This season will be no different.

Bitterness keeps me warm in winter.

What a fucking pity it's a wet sticky summer right now.

Apparently actor Michael Rosenbaum may be reticent to reprise his portrayal of Lex Luthor on "Smallville" in its last season. DigitalSpy.com reports that "Smallville" Producers Brian Peterson and Kelly Souders "attempted to convince the actor to reprise his role as Lex Luthor for the show's final season." So far, unfortunately, the actor has not accepted. "You know what, if it's roses [that will convince him], we've done that. If it's dinner, we've done that [too]." said Peterson. Souders added: "We love him, and he's such a talented actor and brought such life to Lex Luthor."
Souders also spoke about the idea behind so many returning characters during Season 10:

"This [final] season is a lot about Clark confronting the ghosts of his past, and I think he has something to learn from everybody," claimed Souders. "When we looked back at these nine seasons, [we] tried to bring something out of it we've seen before, but [with] a new twist."
She continued: "I can't think of anybody who has been on the show where we wouldn't have a clear idea of what their story is."

"Smallville" returns with the final run of episodes beginning January 28, 2011.

Blow jobs? Have they tried blow jobs?

How bad is it on the set of Smallville that when people get away, they don't want to come back?

Or maybe it possible that he wasn't happy with how quickly his complicated antihero was suddenly changed instantly into a dirt bag villain?

"Michael. This is our Final offer. You Win, I mean Lex Luthor wins. You kill Clark and get the girl, Lois, Chloe, Lana.. Mera? Have you met Mera? but you kill the alien, get elected president save the world and are venerated as the greatest President of the United states of all time for ever after.... What? You want to make out with Cassidy too? Sorry you can't. No, she's a Luthor. You're characters Sister, this is the CW, not Showtime... Okay? Maybe in a flash back."

It's a week of shooting, 2 weeks? His career is NOWHERE!
