Earth 3 Gold Star

Trixie Collins was the Secretary for Blackguard Inc. The small corporation ran by the Crime Syndicate member Black Beetle. Working public relations for a literal super villain didn't leave much time for anything but work, but that only meant she had more opportunities to endear herself to the boss. She knew about people being made and given powers in the Crime Syndicate, she saw him as her meal ticket to real power. He's so her as a girl in over her head and was just going to toy with her while he watched her sink or swim. After a while a relationship did form and after she saved his life she did get made after using the event as blackmail. She was given a power suit that was once used by Stalwart Richard Hertz who worked for the The 101, after multiple modifications by Jack Soo she dawned it and became Black Beatle's sidekick Black Guardian. Overtime and effort on her part to rise in the ranks of the crime syndicate she ended up running a club in Cetropolis under Ultraman, officially separating herself from black beetle due to his international and temporal adventures keeping him away from the company months at a time.

The second Black Guardian Michelle Carter the sister of Michael Jon Carter the Black Beatles. She had been one of the remaining Blackstar in the future, her brother's actions leaving a black spot on the family's legacy and her own. The Blackstars gave her an opportunity to capture her brother, most time travel attempts were suicide thanks to Rip Hunter the time shredder. So she knew she may not survive, but still volunteered to have a chance at vengeance against her brother. Gifted the Black Guardian armor from her present to try and infiltrate Black Beatle's organization in the past and to give her enough firepower to defeat him. She travelled back, surviving a confrontation with Rip Hunter through sheer luck that did not carry on through to fighting her brother. After her loss Trixie Collins was halted silently from moving up any further in the ranks due to the risk of her being replaced and them infiltrated. She joined the modern day Justice Underground along with the 101 remnants using her future technology to aid their fight. Fully expecting them to return the favor one day to bring down her brother.

(As a final note, Blackguard Inc. was not only made for money but also to annoying and undercut his counter part in the Crime Syndicate Scarlet Scarab's company Kord Industries. Primarily they manufacture bullets, kevlar vest & a cereal called Beetle Bites that led to multiple sponsorships and a few silenced lawsuits.)

Considering WB is doing almost nothing to promote DC's Blue Beetle after three back-to-back-to-back box office failures, let this post be a reminder that Blue Beetle is just over a month away!! If you want to know why you should support this upcoming DC movie, here's why: • Blue Beetle is the first live action Latino superhero film • The film stars Cobra Kai's Xolo Maridueña as Jaime Reyes, Singer and Actress Becky G as the voice of the Scarab and George Lopez as Jaime's crazy uncle Rudy. • Blue Beetle is the first character in DC Studios' DCU timeline, as confirmed by DC Studios Co-Owner James Gunn • As stated above, Blue Beetle is part of the DCU world filled with superheroes. However, and thankfully, the past DCEU films are not relevant at all to Blue Beetle -- as confirmed by the movie's director Angel Manuel Soto. • Blue Beetle was made as "the first act of a saga" and is currently planned to have a trilogy, assuming the first film does well. • The Hollywood Reporter's sources believe that if Blue Beetle does do well and if it ends up getting a positive reception, Xolo Mariduena's Blue Beetle can end up appearing in the upcoming Booster Gold show. Support DC's Blue Beetle, y'all.

Heart Scarab of Hatnefer

New Kingdom, early 18th Dynasty, ca. 1492-1473 BC. Serpentinite and gold. Metropolitan Museum of Art. 36.3.2

The heart scarab of Hatnefer is an exceptionally fine example of this type of funerary equipment and is comparable to those made for contemporary royalty. Every feature of the scarab beetle is carefully rendered. The exquisite chain is made of gold wire, plaited in a quadruple-link pattern.

Heart scarabs were very popular amulets. For the ancient Egyptians the heart was not only the center of life, but also of thinking, memory, and moral values. In the final judgement the heart was thought to be weighed against Maat – the principle of order and justice. Only if the deceased had lived a righteous life was he or she allowed to live on in the afterlife.

Just got done with Blue Beetle watch through #2 and it still was just as exciting as the first time. I did notice some more Easter eggs though. Not too many and one I need to really pay attention to confirm if what I saw, was what I saw.

None of these are really spoilers.

1.) Green Lantern's light in the title sequence attacking the scarabs

2.) Older man that Jaime asked "how he looked" was browsing a dating app and I did not see if their names were clear but the phone was very clear, would be worth paying attention to if any of them have a dc relation.

3.) The street the Reyes live on is El Paso St, a nod to the comics that originally take place in El Paso Texas.

4.) Nana browsing through the TV channels are all foreshadowing including a scene with a golden beetle.

5.) Blue and purple lighting everything everywhere. Everything is bisexual lighting.

6.) Booster Gold (or Ted Kord) drawing on Ted's computer console in the Beetle Cave, I have to look closer next time to see if it was Boost.

7.) News broadcast in Spanish talks about Bruce Wayne, but what, I don't know.

8.) Jaime quotes Mortal Combat move from Scorpion "get over here!" While performing one of Scorpion's moves.

These are just what I noticed casually, if anyone else noticed anything nodding back to the comics or other fun references please add.

What the Gold Beetle Earth 3 could be?

Gold Beetle aka Lily is a unique example of a character who over time inherited the legacy is of two heroes, that being Booster Gold and Blue Beetle.

Both of which we have seen Earth free counterparts of, that being Black Beetle and Scarlet Scarab.

Scarlet Scarab originally came from the Batman Brave and the Bold cartoon and was Jaime Reyes. We have not seen that version in the comics but we have seen someone wearing a similar outfit who appears to be Ted Kord.

My own head cannons surrounding these pair are plentiful especially since they've never met in cannon. Instead of being the best of friends like in the main universe I believe they would be the worst of enemies, there scarabs not even liking each other. This being because they are in fact one in the same, the scarab stolen by black Beatles in the future is actually Scarlet Scarabs so damaged after what killed him it has turned black.

Regarding Gold Beetle I think she would be called Black Scarab, she would be the scarabs host continuing on with all the powers that it brings. Mirroring the fact that Gold Beetle predominantly has a Booster Gold power set.

The Gold Scarab

Jenny Kord x Male Reader

For @deafeningsharkslimeempath

How does one even begin to explain where you’ve been for the last two years? For you, Y/N L/N, proud cousin of Jamie Reyes, you were fighting crime with your girlfriend Jenny Kord.

Jamie had yet to graduate from Gotham Law while you were off playing superhero. Jenny worked as your gal in the chair, helping out you and the Scarab with support.

It was fun, no real qualms since the scarab could heal your wounds. Khaji G, as you found out, is a very reliable armor and friend.

You found yourself relaxing on the top of the Daily Planet, just shooting the breeze with the AI embedded in your back.

“So tomorrow we’re heading back to Palmera City.” You sigh.

“Jamie returning home?” Khaji asks in her robotic tone.

“Yep.” You answer, “it’s good cover for us to head back and investigate Kord Industries”

“Jenny doesn’t know?”

“She’d worry if we were helping her investigate her aunt. Something about you and the power blah blah blah”

“You love her so you’re going to disobey her?”

“It’s called reading between the lines, Khaji. Or something like that.”

The two of you powered up and took off into the night sky, heading to Palmera City.

Seeing your tios, tias and abuelita and the cousins you practically call your hermano and hermana.

Speaking of which, you were the first to welcome Jamie when he stepped off the plane.

“Jamie!” You hugged him tightly. He hugged you right back.

“Y/N good seeing you cuz”

What you didn’t see or feel was that Khaji was scanning Jamie and sending a signal to the very scarab that Jenny was trying to save.

“Potential scarab host acquired” The blue scarab sent in response.

“The two men of the hour” your uncle Rudy laughs as he sees you and Jamie walking to the rest of the family.

You spent the next few months going back and forth between Palmera City and your duty as the Gold Scarab.

Using your job as a hero for hire, you were able to send some money to the Reyes clan, helping them to keep the lights on at their homestead.

And then came the Blue Beetle. Your Khaji G just had to send Jamie as a potential host for Khaji D, the Blue Scarab.

You tried to intercept the scarab from Jenny. “What?! I told you to stay out of Palmera City!” Jenny practically screamed at you as you saved her from her hotel room that fateful night.

“And let those goons hurt you?!” You almost screamed back. “Where’s the Blue Scarab?”

“I gave it to Jamie,” Jenny explains.

“Wait what?”

Boom! a blue blur zooms past you and Jenny.

“Blue scarab spotted. Host: Jamie Reyes”

“What?! How?!” You ask.

“He seemed like a good host. Recommend.”

Oh great. How’s this gonna play out? You find yourself wondering.

“Recommendation: train him”

“Train him?”

“Train who?” Jenny looks at you in confusion.

“You’re gonna love this,” you try to explain.

Whatever the future may hold. For you. For Jamie. For Jenny. For the Khaji programs. You’ll stand together. Family is forever after all.

MONKEY D. LUFFY HC: BEETLE

Since he's closely associated with the sun and of course, Nika, I think linking Luffy's love for beetles and the sun would be an interesting next step

As many may have already know, the beetle specifically the scarab beetle is closely linked to the ancient Egyptian god Khepri who is a sun god

Knowing this, I like to headcanon that Luffy's favourite beetle is the dung beetle. The scarab especially

Kids his age would usually pick the rhinoceros beetle, Hercules beetle or stag beetle as their favourite which is common for beetle lovers

Luffy on the other hand, has always loved dung beetles most of all. He likes the humble insect as it rolls its ball of dung, finds them silly and fun. Luffy especially likes how scarabs 'dance' on their ball of dung, even dancing along to the beetle's rhythm

Because of his adventures, fighting against boredom and responsibility as a captain, Luffy rarely ever gets to slow down and talk about beetles. On occasion that he does remember, he sometimes talk about it with Chopper and Usopp. Most of the time though, the conversation tends to focus on beetle fights and having fun

Then, he meets Torao

Torao who prefers the quiet and reading books as well as sora comics. For whom that Luffy wants to learn to slow down and appreciate the quiet and thoughtful patience. The person that Luffy always wants to tuck himself by Torao's side and rambles quietly about anything and everything about his beetles and knows that the older captain is listening

Luffy knows this because whenever he gets talking, Torao would have an arm around Luffy's waist. But whenever he gets to his beetles, Torao would always tighten his hold and rubs a thumb against Luffy's hip

As time goes on, Torao would slowly lower whatever book he's reading and would actually ask questions. The 1st time that happened, Luffy couldn't stop rambling and answering each and every question Torao has for hours

Luffy didn't even notice that it'd been way past lunch too

And in that time, those gold eyes (different from the bright rays of the sun though. If anything, Torao's gold eyes are cool and luminous like the moon of the autumn equinox), would never stray from him

It never fails to make Luffy sway closer to the older captain, telling him about the little things too. About his favourite, the scarab and how warm his chest feels when Torao doesn't laugh and gives him that faint smile and asks to tell him why the dung beetle is his favourite

So he does

He tells Torao everything that comes to mind about his favourite scarab. Its quirks and facts. Like why they roll dung or how good of a navigator the little creatures are. And Torao?

He listens and asks questions. Sometimes simple. Sometimes complicated. But always curious and clever

It makes Luffy grin, smiles so wide that he rambles even more. Makes him crawl and settle onto Torao's lap in his excitement that he barely noticed when Torao supports him instead of pushing him off. Makes him wants to stare into those golden autumn moon eyes for hours on end because he never, ever wants Torao to look away from him

It makes him drag Torao by the hand to dance the scarab beetle's silly little dance that earns him a laugh that's far better than any gold or riches

Which is why when he finds a really old amber fossil with a beautiful scarab immortalised inside that had somehow hidden itself within the band of his hat, Luffy knows who's it from

It tooks hours for either crew to pry him away from cuddling Torao like there's no tomorrow because of that

Julian To Kieran

PRIVATE COMMUNIQUE: DO NOT SHARE ON PAIN OF DEATH

From: Julian Blackthorn of Blackthorn Hall

To: Kieran, King of Unseelie

Well, we’re back from the Seelie Court. Good news: we got the fish slice. Bad news: we didn’t learn very much and we raised a lot of suspicion. But I’m happy to share with you how things went in the hope that you will find it informative. I hope also that you will consider it sufficient exchange for the favor you now owe a phouka. (I am pretty sure that favor will involve asking you to buy a hat.)

We were pretty nervous about going, even with Adaon’s invite—the last time we were in Faerie, things were not great. It was all gray smoke and snow and moths and blasted areas of dead land. All of that seems to be over and done with; Faerie looks healthy again. It was autumn there, and the ground was covered in fallen leaves, all red and gold.

Anyway, we followed Adaon’s instructions and entered Faerie through an old barrow at Primrose Hill. We ended up in a forest clearing with two big wooden doors rising up out of the ground. And Adaon was there to meet us, which was nice of him.

But he did not look happy. He hurried over and explained that he had had to tell the Queen we were coming. “There isn’t much that occurs under her roof,” he said, “of which she is unaware. It is how she has maintained her power all this time, in part.”

He looked so miserable that Emma told him it was all fine and we weren’t doing anything that the Queen would disapprove of, or even care about. He just kind of shook his head. “One never knows just what her Majesty will care about. Or disapprove of. She has bid me take you both to the throne room upon your arrival, and so that is what I must do.”

Now I began to feel a bit more nervous. I reminded Adaon that he had guaranteed our safety. He said, “By the laws of hospitality, not to mention the Accords, she may not harm you or detain you, if your purpose be virtuous.” But he was shaking his head again.

“Let me guess,” I said. “The Queen has the exclusive power to decide if our purpose is virtuous or not.”

Adaon smiled thinly. “Quite.” But he brought us to the throne room.

The throne room was just as autumn-themed as the clearing. More so, really. But it wasn’t about the end of the growing season or being sad that summer was over. It was more like a harvest celebration. There were cornucopias, is what I’m saying, spilling over with gourds, apples, pears, corncobs. There were hay bales, which is kind of funny since nobody in that throne room has, I promise you, ever baled hay. There were pixies with fiery butterfly wings, circling the ceiling.

The Queen was, not surprisingly, on her throne. She wore a dress that I swear, was entirely made of glittering green scarab beetles sewed together. Her hair was like an explosion of red-gold flames around her face. She doesn’t look sickly or emaciated anymore, like she did when we last saw her, and she seemed to exude a power she’d been missing before.

There were the usual groups of faeries scattered around the room—courtiers, I guess—gossiping, tittering, sometimes just sitting around being louche. So everything seemed normal there. They barely paid attention to us, just kind of craned their necks over, realized we weren’t interesting, and got back to lounging.

I expected the Queen to immediately start insulting us, but she was actually quite cordial. Not warm. But not unfriendly, either. Of course, she did want to be complimented on the décor first. She waved her hand around at the throne room and opened with, “You choose a fair season to visit us.”

“It’s cheerier than last time,” Emma said.

“And yet you have chosen to return,” the Queen said, as though she was pleased about it, “despite the…lack of cheer at our last meeting.”

“It has been a long time since we saw our friend Adaon,” I said. “We sought the pleasure of his company.”

“Sayest thou such?” said the Queen, which I suspect is Faerie-speak for So, that’s obviously bullshit. “As you must know, it is not outside the realm of my knowledge that your brother is the consort of the Unseelie King.”

“Only one of his consorts,” Emma pointed out.

The Queen ignored her. “Surely you’ve anticipated that I would suspect you of espionage.”

“We are not here for the Unseelie King,” I said, “but rather regarding our interests in the Seelie Court. Indeed, our family is connected to the Seelie Court in several ways. As you know.”

The Queen ignored me as well. “Your best defense, it seems to me, is that you are such obvious choices for espionage, that surely Kieran Kingson [I think this was meant to be an insult to you, me or both of us] would be cleverer than to choose you as his spies.”

“That too,” Emma said.

“Well, then,” the Queen said. “Spin me a tale. What is your purpose here?”

I felt like we had nothing to lose with the truth—we really weren’t doing anything the Queen should care about. So I gave her the whole story: we inherited a house in London; the house is cursed; we want to undo the curse. I emphasized that neither the house nor the curse were fey-related at all. (I did not bring up Round Tom, as I thought it would be distracting to the main point.)

Breaking the curse requires that (among other things) we get our hands on this fish slice; we’ve learned the fish slice is or was in the possession of Socks MacPherson the phouka; we’ve come to bargain with him for it, and we arranged an invitation through Adaon because we had no way to contact MacPherson directly.

“All we need to do,” Emma said, “is barter with MacPherson for the fish slice. We can do it right here in the throne room, if he could be sent for.”

The Queen looked very interested all of a sudden. “You are willing to do the business here, and never enter the Court proper at all?”

I explained to the Queen that we strongly shared her desire for us not to have to enter the Court.

She seemed surprised, but she called over one of the courtiers and murmured to him. “The phouka will be sent for,” she said. “Prince Adaon, when the Nephilim have concluded their negotiation with him, you will escort them back outside and see them off.” Adaon bowed his assent. “And now,” she said, and her eyes flicked over to one side, “I must beg your pardon, as I see that I am needed.”

We stepped aside to let her descend the throne. I saw that a man had come in who I didn’t recognize—but he was clearly someone of importance given how differently he was dressed than anybody else there. Rather than garb appropriate to court, he was in a gray-green hooded cloak, and his face was obscured by a mask like a falcon head. His clothes were more appropriate to hunting in the woods than anything else, but they were perfectly clean. I didn’t know what to make of him—but I thought I had better pass along his description to you. You said to look for anything new or out of place, and I couldn’t help feeling like he was.

We waited around and chatted with Adaon for a couple of minutes and then Socks MacPherson showed up. We’ve met a couple phoukas before—one of them is the gatekeeper at the LA Shadow Market, as you might remember—and I had thought maybe MacPherson would turn out to be one of those, but no, totally different guy. He was wearing a huge round fur hat that his ears stuck through. It was a lot of hat.

He seemed surprised that the Queen had left us alone, and said he was sorry if we had been harassed overmuch on his account. I said she had probably meant to loom over us but had been called away unexpectedly. MacPherson shrugged and said, “She thinks everything is a move in some game of five-dimensional chess she is playing. But sometimes, someone only wants to trade me something for a kitchen tool. Speaking of which, I have the fish slice.”

He took it out of a kind of carpet bag he had brought with him, and immediately the Ghost Sensor went off like crazy and he kind of jumped away and hid behind one of the groups of courtiers. Although we could still see his hat. (And his ears twitching above the hat.) So we had to go over and explain that it was just a device that detected the cursed objects we were looking for and that the noise was good because it confirmed that the fish slice was the one we wanted. The courtiers shooed us away; they had some important luxuriating to get to that we were delaying.

Socks grumbled that of course “that miserable Spoon” gave him a cursed fish slice. “I don’t know why I took the deal,” he said. “I don’t have any use for this thing. I’m a vegetarian.”

Finally he asked what we were offering, we told him a favor from you and explained how it was we were qualified to offer such a thing. He said the offer was acceptable and we took home the fish slice.

To sum up: Socks MacPherson is protected by the Seelie Court but didn’t blink at accepting a favor from the Unseelie Court. The Queen remains suspicious, both in the sense that she suspected us and in the sense that her behavior was itself weird. The Seelie Court is definitely hiding something, given how relieved the Queen was the minute she realized we weren’t going to actually leave the throne room and enter the court to look around. I have a feeling, based on nothing really — that it’s not a something but a someone that they’re concealing—if it was an object surely they could just hide it somewhere we wouldn’t see it? But, it’s just a feeling.

So that’s it. My deepest gratitude to you, as always, for all your help. I’m sure you were anticipating more information than the above, but hopefully it will be of some use to you.

Our love to Mark and Cristina, and to you of course. And above all, glory to Kraig.

Julian
