La muerte del escarabajo
It made the Southwest news first, but it was eventually picked up by the nation services. In the wake of Superman's death, the death of a localized hero like the Blue Beetle didn't seem quite so important.

"Today, defending his home city of El Paso, the local super-hero known as the Blue Beetle was killed by an unknown super-villain. The third Blue Beetle is best known for his controversial pro-immigration stance publicly taken some years ago, leading many to believe that the hero was in fact an immigrant himself. The youthful hero known as the Scarab, a member of the Teen Titans who patterned herself after the second Blue Beetle, was also involved in the battle, and was originally believed to have been critically injured herself, but seemed to mount a miraculous recovery before spiriting away with the body of the Blue Beetle.

El Paso, Texas will be mourning its hero for some time to come, and many of us are left to wonder if there isn't some grander conspiracy killing our heroes..." CONT on Page A2...

Teds face is one that his daughter rarely sees, and only in the worst situation: he's serious. He is not smiling, not laughing, just holding his sobbing daughter.

"The Black Beetle did this. Clark is gone. The Hawks are dead. This has been a hell of a month, my little buggy. But it will get better."

She clung tightly to him still. "You... you promise?"

The smile is weak, but genuine.

"Yeah, Buggy. I promise, you just gotta get through the hard stuff. This is definitely qualifies as 'hard stuff'."

She pulled back just enough so she could look up at him.

"Thank-you, Daddy," Dinah said, quietly.

She forced herself to turn more serious, focus in a crisis. "The Reyes are going to need our help. Mom's especially. We need to make a cover story that will stick for Jaime."

"Right, I'll tell your mom we'll need an incident report made, some evidence made and possibly taken, and a few other things. Also..."

Ted looks at where the Scarab has attached to his daughter, frowning.

"Is that what I think it is?"

Dinah looked down. "It saved my life. I was... I was dying, Daddy. Jaime made it go to me. Even though it was the only thing keeping him alive."

"Then Jaime knew exactly what he was doing. He saved my little Buggy, just like I would have saved him and Dan saved me. Its a common theme in the Blue Beetle line."

Riley grimaces at the implication that Dinah is going to die horribly for someone else, but he delicately joins in on the hug.

Dinah didn't say anything, just held on tight to the two most important men in her life.
