Blue Beetle in "History of the DC Universe"

A couple months ago Shag Matthews and Rob Kelly of Firestorm Fan, the Aquaman Shrine and the Fire and Water Podcast took a look at 1986's "History of the DC Universe" by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. It had been a while, years actually, since I'd looked at it myself. While listening to them recap it I found myself thinking several times "Wow...I didn't realize Blue Beetle was mentioned that much!"

What the Kaji Dha? Ch-Ch-Changes

Hey there Beetlemaniacs! You may have noticed some slight tweaks to the way posts were displayed this month. I've just recently started to take advantage of Bloggers "page break" option after seeing it in use on another page I contribute to...the Legion of Super-Bloggers. You'll now see the beginning of an article, a picture and then a "read more" link to the rest of the story. This way I can get more posts visible on the main page! I hope it's as helpful for you the reader as it is for me.

Prometheus Unbound!

Previously, Ted's friend and employee Curt Calhoun got doused with molten promethium, Blue Beetle and the Teen Titans took on team of super-villains known as the Hybrid, led by former Doom Patrol member Mento...who then revealed that Calhoun, renamed Prometheus, was the latest member of his team! So what happens next? Len Wein, and the art team of Paris Cullins, Del Barras and Pablo Marcos are back with the final piece to this puzzle, "Blue Beetle" #13, and a story called, "Prometheus Unbound!"
