DC Reboot. The Boy Wonder Speaks.

After visiting the LCS this morning myself and my 14 year old comic reading son got talking about the DC Comics reboot and what we would like to see happen.

I tasked him with writing a little something on what character he would like to see in his own comic again and why.

What follows are his thoughts.

The Return of Blue Beetle.



I would like the Blue Beetle to return to comics for many reasons.

Firstly it is refreshing to have a superhero who does not actually want to be a hero.  As was shown in one of his comics his dream was to be a dentist.  Not wanting to be a hero keeps him honest and you can tell that he will never turn in to a power hungry psychopath.

Secondly the conversation he has with his scarab helps give the story a 'partner feel' without all those 'sidekick in danger' issues.  This makes sure that most issues are good action packed stories which will always keep me interested.

Thirdly.  Why the hell not!  It must make money as a comic.  If it didn't why are they putting the character in to the Smallville tv series.

It's a good comic, good art and a good story.  If it makes money why did they cancel it?

Bring it back it is only logical.

So there you have it.
