About this Collection

This collection kicks off the 2006 Blue Beetle series, introducing Jaime Reyes as the third Blue Beetle after the scarab bonds with him in El Paso. Written by Keith Giffen and John Rogers, the story follows Jaime as he navigates high school life while learning to control the alien armor and facing threats like the Reach and La Dama. It collects issues #1-6 of the series.

In "Blue Monday," Jaime Reyes and the Posse storm Warehouse 13 in a high-stakes mission that upends everything they thought they knew about the scarab. As the Phantom Stranger and Peacemaker each confront startling truths, Jaime faces a revelation that redefines the source of his power—far from magic, it's something else entirely. Written by Keith Giffen and John Rogers, with art by Cynthia Martin and Kevin West, and a cover by Cully Hamner, this 2007 issue delivers a sharp, character-driven twist that reshapes the mystery at the heart of Blue Beetle’s story.
