Crowning Moment of Awesome: Big Barda vs. Dragon.


In a recent issue of Booster Gold, Booster has gone back in time to deal with a recently revived Maxwel Lord, the man who helped fund the Justice League for a while, and killed Booster's best friend Ted Kord, the second Blue Beetle. However, his progress in said mission is stinted when he runs into Ted, and can't help but get swept up in a mission so that they can hang out. To help in said mission, the two recruit Mister Miracle and his wife Big Barda (but only on the grounds that only a lunatic would put the worlds fate in Blue and Gold's hands).

After going back further in time, the team are surprised to be attacked by a giant freaking dragon. Blue and Gold do their best not to get toasted or squished, while Miracle tries to figure out a strategy to use the beasts weight against it. Barda however asks, "What's all the fuss about it's just a dragon." Of course she is met from Booster with, "What do you mean it's just a dragon? What, you think you can just walk in and punch it?"

The answer, is yes.

Also, is it true that Barda was killed off recently? What a load of crap. The first time I see her awesomeness, and now she's dead. That's just great. Stupid time travel confusion.

  1. Heh, just to say I loved your post. Luckily Booster seems increasingly keen to hang out with dead people in the past, so maybe we'll get to see more of her :)

  2. Here's hoping.

    Besides, it's a comic book, she'll probably show up again in like a year.
