Another hero bites the dust

Last year, DC killed off Ted “Blue Beetle” Kord. This week, in the latest issue of “52,” (SPOILER ALERT!), his best buddy, Booster Gold, gets bumped off.

Of course, the cover, shown here, hinted at such a fate. But even though we readers see a body, I kind of doubt he’s truly dead. Readers at the DC message boards share my skepticism. Many have the same idea I did - that Booster faked his death after his reputation was shredded and has adopted a new guise, the new hero Supernova.

Then, again, we could be completely wrong ...
