As the mysterious underground force begins to gain in power, its minions gain in power as well, which means nothing but trouble for Jaime Reyes, who seems to be losing control of his Blue Beetle costume! It's all happening right as Jaime was beginning to master it thanks to the help of his self-proclaimed "mentor," billionaire industrialist Ted Kord, and the mysterious Doctor Fate, who seems to be the only person who understands how truly dangerous this force can be-not just to Jaime and his neighborhood, but to everyone living within a thousand miles of there.

    I have to confess that initially I found this issue a little difficult to get in to, yet the rewards made it more than worthwhile. Anybody who's ever had to deal with a crazy ex or a passive-aggressive current romantic interest will instantly be able to relate to this. Blur's love/hate flirtation with Jaime builds to new heights on every page as he tries to distance himself from her, and it's a guilty pleasure that I kept wanting more. Read Full Review

    This is another fun issue in DCs Rebirth line. DCs Rebirth philosophy is working well with Blue Beetle, mixing together the best of the Ted Kord and Jaime Reyes eras of Blue Beetle history. Read Full Review

    While I still have an issue with the way the dialog feels in this book, I have to admit that I at least had a good time reading this issue and love how uncomfortable our hero was throughout.  The art was great and I'm into the new characters revealed here, I just hope that I start liking our main characters more because their bickering is getting annoying.
