Blue Beetle to Titans?

By now everyone's probably heard that TNT and Warner Brothers are looking to bring DC's Titans to the small screen! Geoff Johns has already indicated it would not necessarily be a "teen" team of Titans, and confirmed that Nightwing, Raven and Starfire were involved...the rest of the team is a mystery at this point. 


Over CBR thought they're offering some speculation on possible members...and one of them is none other than Blue Beetle!

"Warner Bros. has been looking for a place for Jaime Reyes' Blue Beetle for years. He appeared on "Smallville" and was a major part of the later seasons of "Young Justice," and a short, live-action transformation reel wowed the Comic-Con circuit a few years back. Reyes is another legacy hero, of sorts, and would bring some much needed ethnic diversity to the cast."
They make a good point, and it it doesn't stop there (check out the rest of the article, not just for Jaime, but for their other picks). 
It does bring me to a question though...it seems Roy "Speedy/Red Arrow" Harper and Wally "Kid Flash/Flash" West are off the table due to their involvement (or potential involvement in Wally's case) with Arrow and Flash. So...with Ted Kord being teased several times in Arrow, but Atom getting an appearance instead because there were other plans for the character...could Ted, not Jaime, be the Blue Beetle we'll see next? If so, where? Arrow? Titans? His own show? Justice League
Keep your fingers crossed Beetlemaniacs!

Blue & Gold 3000

Just saw this over at CBR and again on Newsarama and had to share!



We've heard this was coming (here), but the new CBR article teases just a little more detail, and has this quote...

"The last time we saw Beetle and Booster, we ended with, 'and they lived Bwa-ha-happily ever after.' This is basically -- look, if you want to call it a certain universe, then think of it this way: If we did another Justice League series like 'I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League' or 'Formerly Known as the Justice League,' this is the third one. No tricks here. This is J.M. DeMatteis' and my version of Blue Beetle and Booster Gold."

So this is JLI Blue & Gold...a follow-up of sorts to the more recent (more recent than the original run that is) JLI stories like "I Still Can't Believe..." and "Formerly Known as..."?! Color me blue with excitement!
