[image: a comic panel from blue beetle #13 showing jaime reyes as blue beetle (from the back view) falling to his knees, kind of tired. the scarab says something and he says “No. no, you did good. You did good.” end image]
most heroes their movie is about deciding that they’re gonna take their new powers and save a bunch of people and that’s why they end up fighting the bad guy to begin with
my boy jaime’s movie was “great you get powers now SURVIVE BITCH THEYRE COMING FOR YOU”
seen a few critiques of blue beetle that claim Jaime's family was too loud and too emotional to be likable and I'm sorry 1. that's your racism showing babes, and 2. THAT'S JUST HOW MEXICANS ARE!!! WE ARE VERY LOUD AND VERY EMOTIONAL EVEN IN VERY SERIOUS SITUATIONS. SORRY YOU CAN'T RELATE BECAUSE YOU'RE REPRESSED OR WHATEVER.
