I've noticed some discussion over who Sensor Girl is but no one seems to
be talking about Booster Gold and Skeets. I've been trying to come up with
some idea but all I draw are blanks. So far all I've been able to really
figure out is that
a) Booster has an old style Legion of Super Heroes flight ring.
b) His costume is powered armor that provides him with flight, power
blasts, super strength, and a force field that seems to be virtually
impervious.
c) Skeets seems to be a mobile computer with flight and an energy blast.
The best idea I can come up with is that Booster is Brainiac 5 in makeup.
Except for the fact that Booster keeps saying, "Wowzer" he suggest Brainy
quite strongly to me. Perhaps he thinks the expression makes it seem more
like he's from this era. My roommate thinks that he's Sensor Girl's brother...
