The last of the Big Three has died.  Science Fiction author Arthur C. Clarke passed away early Wednesday morning local time in Sri Lanka.  For years Clarke, Robert Heinlein and Isaac Asimov made up the “Big Three” of Science Fiction writing.  Over a career spanning decades Clarke wrote close to 100 books and many more stories and articles most notably Childhood’s End and 2001: A Space Odyssey.  George Roddenberry credited Clarke’s work as inspiration for the original Star Trek.  Universally loved and appreciated, he will be missed.  Check out the Full Diagnosis to read Isaac’s Asimov‘s essay about his friend from his autobiograpy I.

In honor of Booster Gold getting his own series again, and travelling back in time to save the life of his best bud Ted Kord (AKA the Blue Beetle) here’s a fun little PSA from Blinky Productions starring the pair in an attempt to stop children from smoking.  Great stuff!
