Teenager Jaime Reyes discovers a mysterious scarab in an abandoned lot near his home in El Paso. The alien artifact fuses to his spine, granting him a powerful armored suit and advanced weaponry. Struggling to control it, Jaime quickly draws the attention of the Black Beetle, a ruthless villain from the Reach, the scarab’s creators, sent to retrieve or destroy it. Outmatched and overwhelmed, Jaime searches for answers and is directed to Ted Kord—the original Blue Beetle from the 1980s. Long retired and haunted by his past failures, Ted reluctantly agrees to help. As they train together, Jaime learns to work with the scarab rather than fight it, tapping into its full potential while holding onto his humanity. When Black Beetle attacks El Paso, threatening Jaime’s family, Ted suits up one last time. Together, the two Beetles face off against the alien threat in a high-stakes battle that tests Jaime’s will and Ted’s legacy. In the final moments, Jaime unlocks a new form, pushing the scarab to its limits and defeating Black Beetle with Ted’s help. With Ted passing the torch, Jaime embraces his new role as a hero. He’s not just a kid with alien tech—he’s the Blue Beetle.
