Blue Beetle: Graduation Day is shaping up to be something special, and issue #3 is a brilliant example of why. Read Full Review
The creative team for the series has outdone themselves on Blue Beetle Graduation Day #3. Its a visually stunning issue that will captivate through its art alone. And Trujillos story gives the series title new meaning with Starfires decision to mentor Jaime. Its a fun, clever comic that you shouldnt miss. Read Full Review
Blue Beetle is a throwback title in the sense that the stakes aren't universe changing, but have major impact on its title character. The creative team isn't afraid to throw in multiple cameos from the rest of the DCU making for a breezy and entertaining title that should appeal to readers ready for a book that is content to just be fun.

This series is a lot of fun, but being half over it feels like a whole lot of plots are converging without really connecting. Read Full Review
The art is good but I'm not sure it fits the story.
Another solid issue from this series that could be better. I think the mentor-relationship between Starfire and Jamie has great potential, but it's not fully realized here (at least not yet). However, the conversation the two have with each other was probably my favorite part of this book. I wasn't expecting the introduction of another beetle (which is now becoming sort of a Power Rangers situation with multiple different colors), but hopefully it's interesting. Speaking of which, I'm not sure how many more villains they can fit now that Fadeaway has returned following the first issue. I just hope that this miniseries doesn't lose focus as we head into the second half.
