Blue Beetle

Hey there,

Anyone read the new Blue Beetle series? I don't know much about him, but read issue #1. Is it true to character? Will it be a good read once fully developed? I'm really just curious.

Beetle Blue

According to Wikipedia.com: "Three fictional superheroes have used the name Blue Beetle as of 2006. The most promiment is the character published by DC Comics, which in 1983 acquired the rights to the name and character from Charlton Comics. That character, with the civilian name Ted Kord, had evolved from an earlier Blue Beetle, civilian name Dan Garrett, created in 1939 by the pseudonymous Charles Nicholas1 for Fox Feature Syndicate. Charlton purchased the rights from Fox in the 1950s, and eventually revised the character, retaining only his civilian name. Charlton then introduced the completely new Blue Beetle that DC would acquire."

The only Blue Beetle I know is with DC comics and most recently that I have read was with the Justice League of America during the Doomsday ordeal. He was pretty beat up at that point and I never could figure out what his power was.
