If you’ve listened to SHoE for more than a couple of episodes, you know it’s something near and dear to our heart that we’ve done for free, and given up countless hours a week to work on, for five years now. And even though there will always be Superman to discuss, we feel it best if SHoE ends with Smallville next weekend. Follow after the jump to find out how you can be a part of it all.

DC COMICS CHARACTER BOOSTER GOLD ARRIVES FROM the FUTURE; The BLUE BEETLE IS BORN! — After everything that happened with the VRA, Lois tells Clark it’s best to make “Clark Kent” forgettable and awkward so people don’t suspect he’s The Blur. However, the two are stunned when a fame-hungry superhero from the future, Booster Gold (guest star Eric Martsolf, “Days of Our Lives”), sweeps into town and begins making saves and posing for press ops, completely winning over the city of Metropolis. Booster begins his campaign to take The Blur’s place as the “World’s Greatest Superhero” and tries to charm Lois into writing a story about him, but she’s not having his antics and begins her own campaign for The Blur. During one of Booster’s saves, an alien weapon in the form of a scarab falls from a truck and fuses itself to a boy named Jaime Reyes (guest star Jaren Brandt Bartlett), turning him into the Blue Beetle. Unfortunately, Jaime is unable to control the suit and Blue Beetle starts attacking Metropolis.
If you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and scroll down to Derek’s advance review of tonight’s episode. You won’t want to miss this one! Our episode for ‘Booster’ is already in the can and will be posted while tonight’s episode airs, so check back for it immediately and come back to discuss with other viewers!
I’ll be the first to say, when ‘Booster’ was announced, I wasn’t really looking forward to it. Booster Gold has never been one of my favorite characters in the DC Universe, and I thought Geoff Johns might have been bringing something bigger to his final episode of “Smallville”; personally I thought Mon-El would have been a great episode this season for Johns, and for Welling to direct. When it was announced that ‘Booster’ would be one of the final episodes, I got even more worried. Johns’ episodes have a way of standing out, almost being like one-shots in Smallville, and not larger, continuity type episodes to overall season arcs. So, I was concerned that staring down the barrel of the final four episodes, we’d have something that, while awesome (as GJ’s episodes usually are), would not capture the true spirit of the culminating final steps to Superman.
I was wrong.
