Seemed like this was giving him closure though, with the final bwaha-ha and such :(. I can hope though. Blue and Gold should be together forever!Wed, 25 Jun 2008 23:39:11 GMTAzhag2http://www.comicspriceguide.com/boards/Topic20284-13-1.aspxI have to say for the past 10 months this book has managed to worm its way into my heart. I am not a huge DC guy but this one beat out Marvels regularily in my what do I read next category. I had some fondness for the character already from the 80s but this really kept things interesting. When they brought back Ted Kord as the Beetle I was enjoying it even more. I think Blue Beetle in the 80s was a fun read, I liked the character and he was entertaining by being brought back. I really thought he was going to live on and take out the lame new Blue Beetle as a chance to give that book a new life. The current one seems pretty lame to me and has terrible numbers from what I've seen.</P><P>Anyway alas it was not to be and Ted took the honorable way out by offing himself at the end. That was a big of a dissapointment to me. Hopefully they can find a way for him to come back again sometime but I think anytime too soon is unlikely unless there's an outpouring of fan support. Guess we'll see where this book goes next.Wed, 25 Jun 2008 13:22:37 GMTIcebreaka
