Blue Beetle: Graduation Day brings fun concepts & new life to Jaime Reyes - NON SPOILER COMIC BOOK REVIEW

In honor of Blue Beetle making his live action debut this week as the DCU's first superhero, I decided to pick up a copy of Josh Trujillo's limited series Blue Beetle: Graduation Day. This is one of the three recommended reads prior to the movie from DC, and the most recent to finish its run.

Graduation Day takes place, as you'd expect, on Jaimes High School Graduation Day. After his Scarab picks up a signal from the Reach, Jaime is grounded by the Justice League, while being forced by his parents to work for his aunt in Palmera City for the summer.

Along the way Jaime meets new warriors, learns from different superhero mentors Ted Kord, Superman, and Starfire, all while learning to tackles his fears head on and become the superhero he is supposed to be.

This book serves as a status quo reset for the character, setting up the stakes for the next series, as well as new villains and heroes. While at times it can feel like chapter 1 of a larger book, it is an extremely fun read that takes place in a larger DC universe, but still feels like Jaimes story.

I appreciate Jaimes arc in this, beginning with him unsure of himself or his role in the world. While the concept is nothing new, I think it is paid off in a way that feels natural and earned. It's a story I think most people can relate to, and definitely teens.

I was surprised by how many heroes were involved in this story. It reminded me of a Justice League/Justice League Unlimited episode in the best way. Bringing in huge named heroes for small roles in the larger story is one of my favorite aspects of DC. Having such a human based character like Jaime interact with these larger than life superheroes was a lot of fun and make for some of the best panels.

My favorite inclusion may have been Starfire, who serves as the most direct mentor to Blue Beetle. Having a hero who is alien and was once a kid hero show him the ropes, absolutely genius.

An aspect of the book I absolutely love is the art and character design done by Adrián Gutiérrez and Will Quintana. They both strike a wonderful balance between classic & fresh that I love. You can see it perfectly in Starfire above. (Though I don't love Jaimes facial hair, just personally).

I found the entire comic reminded me a lot of an anime. At times moments felt big dramatic in scope and emotion, and at other times it felt silly and fun. It struck a good balance for me.

The concepts introduced including new characters, new aliens, and a new city that are all for Jaime make the hero feel more on his own in a way I love. My biggest problem with legacy characters like Jaime Reyes or Miles Morales is the lack of new antagonists that feel like their own instead of hand me downs.

Hell, even the Blue Beetle movie villain is Carapax, a Ted Kord foe, and Victoria Kord, Teds sister.

I'm not going to spoil anything about the new characters and potential villains, but I think this book sets up new mythos specifically for Jaime. Not the Justice League, not Ted Kord, Jaime. I can see the making of a new and special archenemy in the works.

I can see James Gunn using a lot of this lore in future films, television, even Justice League films if they continue on with Xolo's version of the character.

All in all, I found Graduation Day to be a fun read, a great reintroduction to the character, and the beginning of what I hope to be a great run of Blue Beetle. It definitely hyped me up for Blue Beetle opening day, and to read more from Josh Trujillo in September.

I highly recommend you pick it up at your local comic book shop, in English or in Spanish.

Blue Beetle Graduation Day #1-6 are out now.
