History of Blue Beetle - Ted Kord

[@Cyclopsblast]

I LOVE TED KORD AS THE BLUE BEETLE! And I hate how DC treated him. He and Booster Gold were so funny. DC even released a miniseries of them after he died, like they forgot to tell the writers, oops we just killed the Blue Beetle but we payed these people to write this story so we'll print it.

[@raidenstark315]

It's a time travel story

[@archangel5627]

The Ted Kord Blue Beetle is not only the best out of all the Beetles but he’s an all around great character. When he had his own series after the Crisis event, he definitely got the love he deserved. The Blue Beetle and Booster Gold team up books were also a lot of fun and surprisingly well written. I will never forgot how DC managed to take a great character like him, kill him off, and then bring him back only to be relegated as a background character whose not even a superhero anymore. It’s down right embarrassing how DC treats Ted Kord these days. I’m just happy I found your video and saw that people like you haven’t forgotten how cool the Ted Kord Blue Beetle once was. Thank you for the content and I look forward to checking some of your other videos. Cheers!

I really love the Blue Beetle and Booster Gold dynamic. I've been waiting almost 30 years for the two of them to get their own series.

[@jeremycline9542]

Thanks for this one. Ted is one of my favorites and I hope he comes back.

[@jonathancraddock1810]

Great video. Ted Kord is one of my favorite Charlton heroes right next to Caprain Atom and Question. He's both a tragic and fun character. It was really funny and entertaining to watch him and Booster Gold interact. Dan Garett's costume kinda reminds me of Lee Falk's the Phantom.

[@YLPMcLean]

Thank you so much for doing a Ted Kord Blue Beetle history. I love Ted Kord but didn't know much about his past. Love the partnership of Blue Beetle and Booster Gold too, such a great partnership.

[@scottanderson8167]

Ted Kord is the Blue Beetle.

[@atlasrises4]

Oh my gosh a video about Ted! I'm so happy to see someone talking about him! He's so wonderful but ultimately, yes, his history is so sad to look at overall. i hope he gets more and more love.

[@jankoleon3785]

Blue beetle Dan Garrett kinda looks like the Tick..

[@jonathancraddock1810]

He also resembles the Phantom a little also.

[@Noahide]

The next Blue Beetle series will surface soon enough. A movie is in the works, as there is also for Booster Gold, and a fresh series will feature Jamie Reyes and Ted Kord, and I would not be surprised if Dan Garrett shows up in some form or another. Keith Giffen is getting on a bit but after JLI then the Can't Believe/Formerly Known & JL 3000/3001 series, I feel there is probably a last hurrah of the JLI in him, maybe a maxi series or something, down the road to a bit to say farewell to that era.

[@maskedhombre625]

Thank you so much! Ted is my favorite Blue Beetle and I feel like the poor guy doesn't get enough credit or exposure.

[@lmw4420]

your videos, along with comicstorian, variant comics, along with others teach me so much, good gob.

[@summerkagan6049]

The Blue Beetle is like many of his contemporaries of the era. You don't see the Fly, Doctor Solar, Captain Atom, and Magnus the Robot Fighter. All of them hero's that never reached their full potential.

[@nigelsaunders3573]

Awesome video...Ted Kord is my favorite comic book character of all time. Sure, I love Superman, Spidey, Batman etc...but Ted (especially from the JL 1-60 run by Giffen/DeMatteis) was so overlooked...from Despero claiming Ted's mind was "second only to the Martians" to him figuring out Lord's plan before Bats did...

[@jordanhorne1173]

Yes Ted is my Favorite character ever thanks Faust

[@austinlunsford9897]

he was such a good character.

[@TevyaSmolka]

Actually it was Steve ditko who created Ted Kord the second blue beetle

[@ItsSuperEffective]

I say that in the video. "He had the same creators as Spider-Man, Minus Stan Lee". Spider-Man was a collaboration between Ditko and Lee.

[@TevyaSmolka]

ItsSuperEffective gotcha my bad sorry faust

[@TheAlexcruz688]

ItsSuperEffective what do you think of ouran highschool host club season 2 being confirmed since you said you really loved the show

[@vincentfranklin17]

I like all three Blue Beetles, actually.

[@PercyBowls]

Really stoked to see more comics! Also stoked you're doing more of your personal content on here as well even if I don't personally watch it. Do you keep killin it!

[@benardman2665]

One of my favourite heros

[@DraugrOfOdin]

I love Ted. I tweet DC st least once a month to ask them "WTF!?" on this. They really haven't done too much with Ted since this video. He's still alive, which only worries me more, but he has also a supervisor/mentor figure to Jaime.

[@SJays-rn6rj]

I love these history videos❤️. Please do more!

[@MGSBigBoss77]

Excellent review Faust man!

[@bluey4ful]

I'm so happy u did a history video,!!

[@santoshadi8563]

spiderman in mcu is like reincarnation of blue beetle ted kord, will become as succesor of techpreneur n heroic legacy of its predecesor with his own style. so than i wont hate homecoming movie anymore after seeing far from home.

[@lamorak_cosmo3894]

YAE FINALLY A BLUE BETTLE VIDEO THANK YOU FAUST

[@SAW_249]

DC has never used the old Charleton or Fawcett Comic characters properly

[@tedkord336]

He's my favorite superhero of time

[@kylelinwood2322]

Ted Kord is the 3rd Blue Beetle. Police Officer Dan Garret is the first, Dr Dan Garrett is the second. Everyone keeps combining them into one character for some reason.

[@ianmagistrado6924]

bb also partnered with Mr. Miracle at some point in the comics.. good duo too.

[@DCUniverse816]

Well at least Ted Kord has become a significant part of DC’s lore, especially when it comes to both Booster Gold and Jaime Reyes. Speaking of which, did you see the new Blue Beetle trailer and do you that Ted will be in it?

[@ComicCollectionComplete]

Thanks for the video!!

[@benardman2665]

What're you're thoughts on Jaime Reyes??

[@GLawuse]

I have missed so much on this channel

[@MangodudepieXD]

What is the shirt you are wearing

[@xpaowow]

wheres the link to the comics?

[@danebarrett237]

The original backups in Capt. Atom fascinated me as a kid in the 60s. I followed him into his own book. After the Charlton characters moved to DC... Well, I wish it had never happened. Better if those Charlton had stood on their own...

[@aurum8276]

Just listened to the weekly pull, I totally remember that one episode of goosebumps where the kids disappear

[@alexnejako777]

he's well done in Crisis on Infinite Earths. he is brave and has cool tech.

[@pokemonparrot6673]

What about the other two blue beetles?

[@mockingjasonn8660]

Hello, i love your 'history of' video so much. I watch them soo many times a day. The information you give is just perfect. I love you speaking and eveything you think about it. So i wad watching some video's abouy spiderman the homecomming, and find out that zendaya was going to play Mary Jane. And a youtuber said that this was cool, because Mary Jane was going to be a superhero. I was like 'Oh shitt, need more information about this bby' So i typed in 'History of Mary Jane' But found nothing. Not even one good video. So can you please, Please, please make a History of Mary Jane video? Please? I really would love to see it. I need it tbh xd

[@aflyoonyourbook3453]

Isaapje I WOULD LOVE THAT!

[@helloooo2154]

Isaapje yes! i love zendaya. i like mary jane in the movies. she is so smart. can you do a history of her?

[@everettlogan2433]

i loved the first 5 1/2 min of it. But i had to cut it short because im in the middle of the booster gold series. Nice vid though.

[@cece1940]

I love the Blue & Gold duo! will you be doing a Booster one 2?

[@lmw4420]

You deserve over 1mil subs.

[@DCComicsAndSomeOtherThings]

will you do one for jaime

[@TevyaSmolka]

yay i was hoping for Jamie Reyes though but good history video man

[@mirrormimi]

Do one on Jaime Reyes!! As a dentistry student I love him ever since it was revealed his evil persona is a dentist ahahahahaha

[@rickyrackx8928]

Yo Faust, can you do a video on the Dark Avengers.

[@notnotteodor2453]

3:23 I have that issue, but it's in Norwegian

[@chriscassar6947]

MAKE THE HISTORY OF THE NEW BLUE BEETLE!!!!

[@flashtheshapeshafter]

Honestly I want to see more of Ted

[@Seek1878]

I cant help but notice it looks like you have a lot of dust on your t shirt...

[@TrueAmericanReject]

I''ve got a soft spot for Kord and Reyes I don't know why they're so high up on DC heroes I like list and yet never get to read a lot anymore on their stories.

[@princeveggetta]

Ok old school 😁, where Detroit JLA started and was made into flash and cw shows ?

[@CyborgSodaCollects]

The lack of clear goggles here is upsetting for sure.

[@thequestion4818]

Does this mean you'll eventually do a History of Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle?

[@ScarrfaceDee]

okay

[@hanssavory4088]

Still remember when he had 80,000

[@Psity]

Read "animal man". It Will blow minds.

[@Blackwing2040]

I like Jaime a lot more than Ted but he really is an amazing character, but his death was so sad

[@joking1918]

go faust huge fan its time for booster gold

[@raidenstark315]

Why ted was turned into a joke? He had the pontencial to be an A list superhero

[@fictionarch]

I actually knew ted wasn't originally a DC hero does that mean this show's not for me?

[@ReiStormie]

Rurouni Kenshin

[@antonioduran915]

[@Frankie1622]

I thought you gave up on comic videos entirely hence my unsubscription, sorry

[@onlychrisallthetime]

Can you do Jaime reaze

[@demz32]

Why Dragon Ball super doesn't feel like Dragon Ball Z the action and storyline and I understand it's a different generation but Damn Son when it comes to character wise they sound corny and cheesy even the video games just listen how they sound like in Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Budokai 3 they sound more realistic than Xenoverse. the way they sound or i should say the way they speak they sound like they reading A Script just being honest I love dbs but someone have to say it they sound real corny I miss the gangsta Vegeta and the heroic Goku who's not on A man's body and has a child's mind and please respond back I have been following your work and Qaaman for like 3 or 4 years now and usually I don't leave common but I love and respect what you guys do for the DBZ community but make a video a comparing Dragon Ball Z and super. the reason why I'm asking you it's because is been in my heart and brain since the Battle of the Gods and I know a lot of people listen to you even the people who's making Dragon Ball super I bet but sorry for this long message today is my 21 birthday and I am a little bit tipsy but I but is been in my heart and I think this is the second time I send u a common and this is something I don't like to do that but l would do it every bule moon so don't judge me lol but but one more question why does zarbon have a potara ear ring if you do know the answer ? if you don't it's cool thanks bro

[@doyscherr]

The story is good in Blue Beetle Rebirth but the dialogue stinks. DC Comics, please put JM DeMatteis with Keith Giffen.

[@Mr379789]

Faust you are very cute😊

[@KOFNY]

[@deadsec30.36]

SHIVAN GAUR no one cares

[@KOFNY]

DeadSec30.3 I know I just never got to say that before
