Continuing to be back on my bullshit, I'm rounding out the year with the next installment of my Blue Beetle au nonsense or.

AKA @wazzappp 's Blue Beetle headcanons give me life and I'm yoinking them because. Everyone deserves a little body horror. As a treat.

(Well. Except for Oo'Li, by virtue of being the type of alien (yk more or less) that the scarabs are using for that sweet sweet basic DNA template)

Anyway, following my timeline of Jaime ending up with his second 'upgrade' after the reboot re: Khaji Da's last ditch effort to keep him from smashing into the ground of terminal velocity, Xiomara and Roma end up more buggified after their altercation with the Crimson Scarab in issue...2? I think, when their powers get drained, in the same vein of their scarabs getting inventive with ways for their hosts to defend themselves in power drain scenarios.

In keeping with their power-sets/specialities, Roma ends up with a scorpion-esque tail (yes ik that's not an insect but if she can manifest tentacles Im saying it counts) and retractable claws, while Xiomara has fully armored hands/gauntlets and extra insectoid legs

#jaime reyes #oo'li a'barr #roma lopez #xiomara erazo #reachling au #it took me almost a. month and fighting for my life against art block (and ok. being distracted by ghost rider) but i made it #kicking and screaming but i made it #yeah idk why i added fancy dress even tho. i lost steam soo fast its just. some social/public event about the Horizon idk #anyway roma and xiomara might have escaped reachification but buggification leaves no prisoners #speaking of which. technically ig the Horizon are fairly alien-y for. a protagonist alien species (<so has to be bc of the Reach) but #can always be more :) #it is. soo obvious i started using references 4/5 the way into this but. whatever its fine #and ok. the teasing between oo'li and jaime did get me #....it might just bc bc i made jaime like. 1/3 reach and i think the hypothetical interplay would be fun #the cultural barriers! the flipping of it being his humanity that's new to oo'li vs the uh. everything else hes got going on #its about the vibes (<aroace and yet again leaning into relationships as a thought experiment maybe but. whatever) #also she's taller than him and yk. thats always fun

re-reading the earlier issues of blue beetle (2023) and I'm wondering if we're not done with the Horizon plotline and we're going to see more conflict with them than initially positioned*.

The emphasis on the actions Dynastes/Xiomara takes (when trying to kill Blue Beetle in Graduation Day) are framed as "I was going to destroy Blue Beetle no matter the cost", and again the exact same phrasing is used by Pastor Ood (leader of Horizon) when he is saying "I have to protect my people no matter the cost". And Roma refers to her first time out as Nitida as something that she could not control or remember.

*granted it's possible they weren't actually initially framed as super conflict-free and I just mis-remembered due to how long it takes between issues to come out and the fact that they had to resolve the plot of Graduation Day quick before the mini ended and now can go into more depth. They also do understandably have a reason to be wary of humans as humans are shown being xenophobic to them, and we're setting up Ooli feeling insufficiently protected by Jaime. I can easily see a situation in which Jaime has to protect the Horizon but also protect people from the Horizon depending on how it goes with the new Horizon beetles

Those Who Care. Dr. Xiomara Erazo shared this photo and note about a Baxter student and her daughter. “One of my beloved Cuban girls from Baxter and her mother saw the call for help to bring school kits to the children of the hurricane affected areas of Honduras and without hesitation, they collected what was necessary to help other children to attend school this year. Thank you, my dear Sammy and sister Laritza Montero for your solidarity with those who have less.” With donations of many we will travel and assist those in the hurricane ravaged areas this Friday with a crew of faculty, staff, clinic doctors, and students. #baxterhurricanrelief #baxtercares (at Baxter Institute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLE8mscpN-T/?igshid=16iyd3yusu4z6

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day (2022) #6

My name is Jaime Reyes. I’m kind of a superhero. I grew up somewhere special, with a family that loved and supported me through all sorts of tough times. It was somewhere that made me the hero I am today. I live in the city now, but it’s starting to grow on me. New friends, a new job… New adventures! What was supposed to be a ���gap year” has turned into something much different. A calling. I found people who need me. I found a purpose. Things are getting real weird, but I don’t mind one bit. For me and my life, weird is part of the package. For the first time in a long time, I’m excited about the future. The possibilities. And whatever comes my way, I’ll be ready. It won’t be easy, but we’ll figure it out. Together. After all, I’m the Blue Beetle! I totally have this under control.

After the recent attack, Jaime turns to the one person he knows who can decipher the mystical runes left by the Blood Scarab: Traci 13! Can these exes work together and piece together the secret history of Khaji Da?!

I love that Dynastes & Nitida are named and colored after real types of beetles

The new beetle characters are pretty neat and I’m looking forward to seeing more of them!
