#firstappearancefriday goes to Booster Gold in his very first issue......from the 25th century Michael jon Carter was a great football player but was found out he was purposly losing so his father can rake in the moneys from betting.....He was found out and shunned made to be a night watchmen at a museum....being the showboat that he is he stole a Flight ring, suit, security driod named "Skeets" and a time machine made from Rip hunter....using his knowlege of the future he thought he would go back in time and make a name for himself.......obvs this happened and yet u still dont know him? Not liked because of this and the fact that he wants all the glory but never catches a break, u feel sorry for him but he did join The JSA and made a great friendship with Blue Beetle that lasted years......the new 52 run of booster gold by Geoff Johns is a must read and he also featured in a great Justice league unlimited episode, check it out #boostergold #firstappearance #dc #bluebeetle #1stappearance #comichaven #comicbooks #comic #fromthestacks #goodreading #geoffjohns #hype #gethyper #skeets #25thcentury #JSA #Flightring #riphunter #timetravel

This week for #firstappearancefriday is Detective comics #474 the first Silver age appearance of Floyd Lawton a.k.a Deadshot. Deadshot previously appears in Batman #59 but is soon sent to jail when he is found out he was trying to frame bats and try to rule the underworld. He makes a comeback in this issuse while sporting his trademark red jumpsuit and metal face mask with eye piece (he wore a tux with a top hat before, weird I know haha). Later on down the line he becomes enlisted into the suicide squad, in the New 52 reboot he actually apoints himself leader. Very much to the dislike of Capt. Boomerang who seems to have a very bitter rivalry with Deadshot. Anyway a trained assassin with wrist mounted guns and an expert in weopens and also hand to hand combat a born leader and he always makes sure he gets paid at the end of the day........be very interesting to see how will smith potrays him in the up coming suicide squad film. #deadshot #floydlawton #batman #detectivecomics #silverage #comics #firstappearance #suicidesquad #captainboomerang #comichaven #fromthestacks #goodreading #dc

For a while I have been after this issue....now I have it.....Crisis on infinite earths #8.....Barry allen (flash) is in the presence of the anti monitor and his anti matter cannon, faced with a tough choice he makes the ultimate sacrifice, running so fast the cannon explodes but in his haste he also disintigrates with it.....Hailed as the ultimate hero for saving multliple earths he was always remembered by other heroes and set an example to his ward Wally West.....but he did actually come back it took about 30 years but he did haha....apparently he ran so fast he changed into the lightening bolt that made him the flash anyway (confusing I know).....great story and great art from George Perez #flash #crisis #georgeperez #antimonitor #barryallen #crisisoninfinteearths #comics #silverage #comichaven #fromthestacks #goodreading
