He became THE BLUE BEETLE! At first he\u003cbr\u003e\nfought crime in a blue suit and mask, using only his human strength and wits, but early in his\u003cbr\u003e\ncareer was almost killed....and Dr. Franz created ÒVitamin 2XÓ Ð and used it to save Garrett's\u003cbr\u003e\nlife, at the same time giving him super-strength, super speed, even super intelligence. Now,\u003cbr\u003e\ndonned in his armored costume, BLUE BEETLE had become a bona fide superhero.\u003cbr\u003e\nTHE BLUE BEETLE has been retold and rebooted many times over the last 75 years. This is the\u003cbr\u003e\noriginal BLUE BEETLE, the Golden Age classic hero. He appeared in many comics, including a\u003cbr\u003e\n60-issue series of his own title, and 31 issues of MYSTERY MEN. In June of 1942, Blue Beetle\u003cbr\u003e\nmoved from Fox to Holyoke Publishing with issues #12. Holyoke would continue to publish\u003cbr\u003e\nBlue Beetle until issue #31 when the title returned to Fox Publishing.\u003cbr\u003e\nFOX skipped issue #43, The numbering goes from #42 to #44. Also, I have been unable to find\u003cbr\u003e\nscans of Issue #50. Fabulous rewards are available for the person who can provide scans of that\u003cbr\u003e\nissue for me. This book was compiled with the best images currently available. That stated,\u003cbr\u003e\nthese comics are seventy years old. The best efforts have been made to make the pages as\u003cbr\u003e\nenjoyable as possible but not every panel is perfect and some allowances for the age of the\u003cbr\u003e\nbooks need to be considered when judging the overall content\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RETRO COMIC REPRINTS","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44337346412705,"sku":"9798891524354","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/zm89wvn-front-shortedge-384_ae89c028-541e-462e-807d-ba1afc21e7a3.jpg?v=1747581941","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/the-golden-age-blue-beetle-giant-size-volume-four-black-white-edition","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
