So remember the beetle I found last month but it flew away?

Lo and behold, I found the body. 100% ded unfortunately. But on the flip-side, I have a collectible figure. Idk how to pin insects so the fact that it’s already posed so nice is cool.

As to where I found it….

The plastic cup in the corner of the room. My theory is that it flew in there but couldn’t get out.

How Blue Beetle is the Hero James Gunn's DCU Needs

It is no secret the DC Universe has had its fair share of setbacks when it has come to live action films.

From trying to start a universe with Green Lantern, to Man of Steel starting the inconsistent DCEU, it has been hard to watch so many heroes wasted by studio interference, failed universe building, and let's just say, unorthodoxed takes on famous characters (I'm looking at you Joker and Lex).

Now we have an opportunity for a fresh start.

Director James Gunn has a new lineup of films consisting of big swings and fan favorite characters, hoping to build up the DCU we know and love.

In this new marriage between Warner Bros and Gunn, he has inherited 4 children from the previous marriage. The previous box office bomb Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the current box office bomb The Flash, the sequel to one of the biggest DCEU movies Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and Blue Beetle, the attempt at a new hero for the DCEU franchise who is somewhat left up in the air between DCEU and DCU.

While some have already chalked this up as another potential bomb, of the 4 movies, this has been my most anticipated.

Unlike the others, Blue Beetle I believe is in a prime slot as the right character, right time, not only to the general public, but to the DCU. Here's why:

1. The Flexibility of Blue Beetle

Unlike the characters Shazam, Flash, and Aquaman, Blue Beetle is not directly attached the DCEU.

Besides a mention of Batman, and the gear of (the probably late) Ted Kord, Blue Beetle doesn't have many connections to a wider DC Universe. He can exist in either, if they wish to continue one or both.

2. The World Building Potential

Blue Beetle opens up another part of the DC Universe in multiple different ways EARLY.

As the Scarab is a part of The Reach, this opens up a whole other side of DCU we have never seen, and potentially sets up an invasion storyline.

The Reach also have a deal with The Guardians of the Universe of Oa, setting him up for a potential Green Lantern crossover nicely.

But unlike many other heroes, Jaime Reyes isn't just a member of the Justice League...

He's a TEEN TITAN!

Jaime opens the door to young heroes existing already! The Teen Titans are a fan favorite, but he is also a member of Young Justice, who are equally as fun.

This is currently an untapped market for both DC and Marvel (though I'm sure the Young Avengers are coming). Jaime can act as a door between both, offering a perspective as the youngest member of the Justice League, and the senior member of the Titans.

3. Legacy Characters are IN

A particular kind at least.

If I had a nickel for every legacy character who is (vaguely) attached to a hero they admire, who take on that hero's name, with a similar but different set of powers, who then makes their old costume better, and who happen to be a person of color, I'd have three nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it has happened thrice.

The most famous of course is Miles Morales AKA Spider-Man, who has headed two incredible movies and a pretty sweet video game, along with several appearances in animation.

The second is fan favorite Kamala Khan AKA Ms. Marvel, who had a pretty solid show and also headed up a video game. While these are not as good as Mile's, they are both in the zeitgeist, and with her big film debut coming up in The Marvels, Iman Vellani has a bright future ahead of herself in and out of the MCU.

And finally, we have Blue Beetle! While he is a legacy character by name, he becomes Blue Beetle AFTER Ted Kord dies in comics, similar to Miles and Peter Parker. He carries the weight and legacy of a hero he never knew, and tries to do it his own way.

That is something audiences are loving right now, and Blue Beetle can tell a similar story.

and finally...

4. Xolo Maridueña is Perfect

You think I'm overselling him, but I'm not.

If you don't know his name yet, you will soon. As the star of Cobra Kai, Xolo plays Miguel, a kid from nowhere trying to live up to the legacy of man he deems great. If that isn't Jaime, I don't know what is.

Xolo plays every role he has with heart, charm, and has comedic timing to beat. As one of its leads, Xolo helped take Cobra Kai from a YouTube Red Series to one of Netflix's BIGGEST Shows.

And at only 22, he is young enough to play a late teen, and to be in this role for years to come.

In Marvel talk, we can very much be looking at DC's Tom Holland, and Blue Beetle could be Spider-Man Homecoming.

The bottomline is, I am beyond stoked for Blue Beetle, and as a Latinx fan, I know I'm gonna be there day 1, rooting for its success.

I hope to look back on this 10 years later, as the Justice League unite with Jaime up there with em, three movies under Xolo's belt, a fan favorite, with more to come.

Earth 3 Gold Star

Trixie Collins was the Secretary for Blackguard Inc. The small corporation ran by the Crime Syndicate member Black Beetle. Working public relations for a literal super villain didn't leave much time for anything but work, but that only meant she had more opportunities to endear herself to the boss. She knew about people being made and given powers in the Crime Syndicate, she saw him as her meal ticket to real power. He's so her as a girl in over her head and was just going to toy with her while he watched her sink or swim. After a while a relationship did form and after she saved his life she did get made after using the event as blackmail. She was given a power suit that was once used by Stalwart Richard Hertz who worked for the The 101, after multiple modifications by Jack Soo she dawned it and became Black Beatle's sidekick Black Guardian. Overtime and effort on her part to rise in the ranks of the crime syndicate she ended up running a club in Cetropolis under Ultraman, officially separating herself from black beetle due to his international and temporal adventures keeping him away from the company months at a time.

The second Black Guardian Michelle Carter the sister of Michael Jon Carter the Black Beatles. She had been one of the remaining Blackstar in the future, her brother's actions leaving a black spot on the family's legacy and her own. The Blackstars gave her an opportunity to capture her brother, most time travel attempts were suicide thanks to Rip Hunter the time shredder. So she knew she may not survive, but still volunteered to have a chance at vengeance against her brother. Gifted the Black Guardian armor from her present to try and infiltrate Black Beatle's organization in the past and to give her enough firepower to defeat him. She travelled back, surviving a confrontation with Rip Hunter through sheer luck that did not carry on through to fighting her brother. After her loss Trixie Collins was halted silently from moving up any further in the ranks due to the risk of her being replaced and them infiltrated. She joined the modern day Justice Underground along with the 101 remnants using her future technology to aid their fight. Fully expecting them to return the favor one day to bring down her brother.

(As a final note, Blackguard Inc. was not only made for money but also to annoying and undercut his counter part in the Crime Syndicate Scarlet Scarab's company Kord Industries. Primarily they manufacture bullets, kevlar vest & a cereal called Beetle Bites that led to multiple sponsorships and a few silenced lawsuits.)
