Superhero Origins: Blue Beetle

VOICE OVER: Dan Paradis
There have been several characters who have taken the name "Blue Beetle" in comic books. The first Blue Beetle was a regular beat cop named Dan Garret, who by night fought crime through the use of his super-strength granted by a special vitamin. He soon gave way to a totally new Blue Beetle that was a millionaire scientific genius named Ted Kord who used inventions and his beetle-shaped flying machine to fight crime. When DC Comics took over publishing Blue Beetle in 1986, they retold the origin, making his powers be the gift of a mighty Egyptian god.
