Origin Story

Mashed ganglin' come the friend of the unfortunate, enemy of criminal. In mysterious, all powerful character, a problem to the police, but a crusade of law. In reality Dan Garrett, a rookie patrolman, loved by everyone but suspected by none of being the Blue Beetle.

As the Blue Beetle he hides behind the strange maps in a suit of intelligible blue-shade armor, flexible as silk but stronger than steel. As our story opens, our hero Dan Garrett is visiting his friend and secret advisor Dr. Franz who operates a little apopically shop in one of the great city's side streets.

He is restably pacing the floor in Dr. Franz living room. Look, uh, what does that have to be so much red tape in police work? Well Danny, every organization has to have rules and regulations that makes for efficiency.

Yes, but the criminals and the crooks were set to catch on, bound up the rules and regulations. You know, I like police work, but I also crave action. You seem to get plenty of it as the Blue Beetle.

I worry about you, Tate. These crooks and gangsters are vicious, cold-gudded killers. They'd have no mercy on you if they caught you. I can take care of myself. Besides that sort of blue chain army who made me a lad and asked her a great protection, I hope they never catch you without it.

Or ever discover who the Blue Beetle really is. I'm afraid it would be in the end of the Patrolman Dan Gabbard. Well after all, doc, you're the only one who knows. Even mannequin is always saying what he'd do if he caught the blue beetle.
