Splitting Atoms 
Hey Jason and Roy, another fun episode. I’ve never read these early Booster Gold issues, so I’m genuinely keen to hear how the plots unfold. And unlike you guys, I got excited knowing the Legion are in the next issue.
Mr 103/104/118 whatever is a character begging to be revived by a creative writer with access to a science specialist friend.
I love the cut in comments. I actually wish Jason would make an error in a cut in and do another cut in on the the cut ins to create amazing correction inceptions.

I have also not read these old Booster Gold issues. I generally read them the night before we record so this stuff is all new to me. I’m loving it.
I pick on the Legion but I never really disliked them. The few issues I read I actually rather enjoyed. I just never found a great jumping-on point for the series.
I agree that in the right hands Mr. Element Number Man could be an awesome character. Perhaps Gerard Way will use him. I’m excited to find out what the future holds for DC’s hard-luck heroes.
And the correction-within-a-correction Inception rabbit hole is just the sort of thing I’d do!
Thanks for listening, Hix!
