About this Collection

This volume collects issues #7–12 of the New 52 Blue Beetle series, following Jaime Reyes as he faces the mysterious Blue Diamond and uncovers deeper secrets of the Scarab's origins. The story continues to explore the challenges of balancing a normal teenage life with the responsibilities of being a superhero, all while dealing with new threats tied to his alien armor.

In "Boy Meets World," Jaime Reyes grapples with the weight of his powers, convinced he's too dangerous to stay near those he loves. Determined to find answers and connect with others like him, he heads to New York—only to stumble into a threat he never expected. Written by Tony Bedard and brought to life by Marcio Takara’s dynamic art and Pete Pantazis’s vivid colors, this issue marks a pivotal moment in Jaime’s journey. The cover by Freddie Williams II captures the tension of a young hero stepping into a world far larger than he imagined.
