The Blue beetle is one of those legacy characters for whom I enjoy every incarnation. I like the new Jaime Reyes version and i am glad that he has gotten another chance at a solo title with the New 52 at DC. I was hoping the Reboot would bring Ted Kord back in some manner - no sign of him yet but I guess there's still a chance. I am the least familiar with the Dan Garrett original, but I have enjoyed the few Golden Age stories that I have seen him in. Heck I even liked the live action, beer bellied Blue Beetle that used to appear on episodes of The Electric Company, that guy used to make me laugh!
