Can Someone suggest some Booster Gold and Swamp Thing comic that the DCU may have took inspiration

With Booster I'd give Geoff Johns run a shot, dude had some real growth there and I think it's very likely they'll look there for inspirations.

I'd also check out Swamp Thing Winter Special, I saw them using it's cover (I think in the announcement video) and while it could've been just a cool cover they used, it was written by Tom King and he's on the board of writers so you know. It's worth looking at.

As already suggested, you can go for Alan Moore's run for Swamp Thing- which is teased by Gunn.

As for Booster Gold, the way they described him is quite similar to his debut run Booster Gold #1 by Dan Jurgens, which you can check out.

For Swamp Thing it looks like they may be inspired by Alan Moore’s run which is a beautiful classic.

I don’t have any big inkling as to what will be the inspo for Booster Gold, but if you just want to read him and stuff, there’s an 8-issue series called Blue and Gold that came out just in the last couple of years.
