How Blue is My Beetle
or: New and Improved
Another of my favorite Ditko designs, the new Blue Beetle. As an added bonus, this time we get some actual motivation. Seems Ted Kord, our soon to be hero, has not only unwittingly aided his uncle in creating weapons of evil, but caused the death of the Blue Beetle as well, tasking Kord with carrying on in his name.

How did I never know his origin?!?

Holy jumpin catfish on a pogo stick…I can’t believe I’ve known about the character for decades and never knew his origin. Huh. Thank you for this, the image and the history lesson.

Ted Kord doesn't get enough love! I've been a fan since I first started reading DC with the Legends mini series that followed Crisis! Wonderful take on BB, Paul!
