Booster Gold
P.W.N.E.D.
“Hi, this is Wiley Kilmer for another edition of Portal World News Extreme Download and hold on to your favorite electronic devices because have we got a story for you.” The young woman with impeccable clothing and perfectly fashioned hair said into the camera lens as the man behind the camera tried to swing the angle to incorporate not only the web reporter but the traffic jam behind her as well as the man in the blue and gold costume with the star emblem.
“Booster Gold is back and better than ever! At least that’s how it appears. As you know, PWNED brings you up to the minute broadcasts on significant events regarding portal occurrences especially when it comes to those with super powers. It has been some time since we have seen a version of Booster Gold on our world and fans of the celeb sensation have been burning up the gossip sites with speculation about his latest disappearance and speculating on his next reappearance. Well fans, the wait is over.”
The camera panned toward Booster who with the help of his robotic sidekick Skeets seemed to be working to unclog the traffic jam and return things to order once again. To the side it could be seen that a tank-like vehicle with technologically advanced weapon had been disabled and moved to the edge of the roadway. Police officers were handcuffing individuals dressed in futuristic uniforms and escorting them to a police transport vehicle as members of S.W.A.T. provided tactical coverage.
“Booster, is it true that you prevented an armored car robbery here today and saved countless lives by interdicting a high speed chase in progress while laser type weapons were being fired?” Wiley asked with a large smile on her face, obviously pleased to be bringing this story live. “And is this a new and younger version of yourself that has recently arrived through a portal?”
“That’s right!” Booster beamed his thousand megawatt smile at the camera. “The new and improved Booster Gold is on the scene, ready to fight crime, protect the people, and resume all commercial endorsements of my predecessors. I am also available for movies, television shows, internet entertainment, and public appearances.”
