Suggested by nihilus
Jaime Reyes bonds with the Scarab — not parasite and host, but hive and king. His body twists into impossible forms: wings like serrated glass, mandibles dripping plasma, eyes glowing like broken neon. He rips through gangs, cartels, and corpos, but the slaughter feels ritualistic, like sacrifices to some insect deity. Hallucinations bleed into reality — shifting colors, glitching shadows, voices of long-dead warriors. Jaime and the Scarab like it. Every fight is psychedelic carnage, a techno-horror vision of limbs torn apart under streetlights flickering out one by one. He isn’t saving the city — he’s remaking it into his hive. This is Blue Beetle reimagined as an anti-hero. No more of that lame cliche superhero Spider-Man BS. I'll be taking inspiration from the Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Dandadan animes + The Prototype games. Nonstop hyperviolent action sequences throughout with peak fight choreography! 🥷
