    They gave us a survey to show which hero or villain we wanted to get their styles. Six Dimension Superman was given to us (I voted on that one), other people have voted for Blue Beetle. If you aren’t familiar with Blue Beetle I suggest watching Young Justice or playing Injustice. There’s also different colors of the Scarab such as black and green.

    They said we would get livestreams show how they developed a style when it won but not much has really been said other then it wouldn't be the Anniversary event style. To tell you the truth I'm looking at it like it might be 50/50 chance we get it this year or it might be like other stuff in the past that was promised and we never see it.

    You summoned?

    Jaime Reyes was the 3rd hero that was named Blue Beetle. First two were Dan Garret and Theodore (Ted) Kord.

    The Scarab, based on writing, was supposed to be magical, tech, or both. When Dan Garrett had it during the golden age, it gave him super strength and a few other abilities. Think how we have exobytes explaining our powers. As he was dying, he gave it to Ted, his student, who couldn't figure out how to get it tow work. (Which later revealed it was because of his close proximity to Booster Gold's Chrono Particles preventing it from awakening.) Ted instead, because he was rich like Bruce Wayne, and smart, like his Brother From Another Publisher, Peter Parker, built his suit, tech, and franchise.

    Fast forward for years of BWAHAHA-ing, Ted was killed by Max Lord. His scarab was taken to the Rock of Eternity (since it was believed to be magical) and it activated and escaped during a big event. It ended up on Jaime Reyes, a young LatinX kid who had no idea on what to do other than being a Teenager in El Paso. His book was written by Keith Giffin, who was one of the halves of the Bwahaha Blue and Gold days of the JLI.

    The powers on Jaime's Scarab is a sentient tech based battle armor that was created by an alien species called the Reach. Which are bug like people that like to conquer worlds. The scarab was damaged in it's travel to earth, otherwise it would take over an indigenous person to conquer the world for the Reech. (Think Goku/Kakurott from DBZ.)

    Anyways, he is a really cool character and his tech costume is really neat. I think a lot of people will love the new style.

    I think the hype for it was how long ago the voting process was and the fact it's not done yet, after over a year.

    There is only one Blue Beetle style worth having, this wasn't the one. Also, by the time they release the style, the Movie will be on HBO.

    I'm more inclined to believe it will end up in a time capsule or canceled all together.

    They've said several times it's not going to be in a Time Capsule.

    Mepps already debunked this foolish theory. Repeating it over and over won't make it true.
