So how will the playful comedy character Blue Beetle look post IC?

Whoever said that DC will use IC to make DC even darker might be right after all.

That's...pretty laughable.  Smiley  It's a good thing I'm not a Blue Beetle fan, or I might be highly upset.

He does resemble Rorshach from the Watchmen, though.

You said it. That's one of the most unintentionally funny things I've seen. Ooooh, Beetle, he's SO HARDCORE! What next?

No WAY that can be right. I mean, this HAS to be a parody, a joke, a comic book version of SPINAL TAP making fun of the pompousness and seriousness of comic books.

Sure seems like DC hates the Blue Beetle in all his incarnations.

Is it possible to get any darker than pitch-black? We're there already.

The Gore Age looks like it's just beginning to ramp up. We ain't seen nothing yet....  Sad

Word has it that during the next crisis ten years from now, it will get even darker, where they will just print 22 100% black pages and 48 pages of ads, for a mere $9.95 each issue.
