Who is Beth Chapel?

Beth Chapel is a physician who takes on the mantle of Doctor Midnight, a legacy hero in the tradition of the Golden Age Doctor Mid-Nite, possessing the ability to see clearly in total darkness and wielding blackout bombs as a member of Infinity, Inc.

Beth Chapel made her entrance in the Bronze Age pages of Infinity, Inc. #20 (1985), brought to life by the creative team of Roy Thomas, Dann Thomas, Todd McFarlane, and Mike Hernandez — a debut with serious pedigree. A DC character whose story has stretched across an impressive four decades, she's kept remarkable company throughout her comics life, sharing adventures with the likes of Green Lantern, Wildcat, Hourman, Rick Tyler, and Jennie-Lynn Hayden across the pages of Infinity, Inc., Eclipso, and Detective Comics. With appearances running all the way to 2026, Beth Chapel is a Bronze Age original whose presence in the DC universe has proven genuinely enduring — exactly the kind of character a dedicated collector loves to track down and champion.
