He dies and mutates into a robot controlled by Brother Eye. Once again, the beetle's origin is retconned, as revealed by Doctor Fate , who tells Kord that the beetle is not alien, but magical, similar to the original continuity pre- Infinite Crisis. The Blue Beetle scarab is grafted onto Jaime's spine and can manifest a number of powers of its own volition, an act usually accompanied by blue energy emitted by the scarab's "antennae". Over the course of the first year of his ongoing series, Jaime had little, if any, control over those powers, but slowly asserts himself.

When Jaime is in danger, the scarab activates, crawling out on to Jaime's back and generating a high-tech suit of powered armor around his body. The armor is resilient enough that it can protect him against re-entry from Earth's orbit. When the danger passes, the scarab deactivates, dissolving the costume and retracting back onto Jaime's spine, causing intense pain.

When in use, the suit can reconfigure itself to produce a wide array of armaments. Common functions include an energy cannon, a sword and shield, a grappling hook, a device resembling a communications satellite, and a set of foot-long powered blades that can shear through tree trunks. In addition, the suit can produce a set of wings for flight that can also act as shields. Jaime alludes to weapons that may be powerful enough to harm even the Spectre, one of DC's most powerful characters, claiming that some of the weapons are of W.

The suit can create armaments of different composition and style. The wings, for example, were initially composed of the same blue opaque armor as the rest of the suit, but beginning with Blue Beetle 12 April , began manifesting themselves in the form of a colorless, translucent material.

This book is not yet featured on Listopia. Mar 09, Elaine White rated it it was amazing Shelves: This was an absolutely stunningly illustrated comic. Very realistic and beautiful illustrations. The story is clever, intriguing, and ended far too soon. I loved this Issue and can't wait to read more. It reminded me a little bit of Wynonna Earp, in a way - with the whole "gun meant for one person" idea, etc. It was still very original, despite the feeling of similarities.

Mar 10, Kat rated it did not like it Shelves: After gunning down Talbot's men, Arthur has fled Telacoma with Whitefeather in search of help and safe haven.
