“Say hola to the Blue Beetle.

This month’s issue of DC Comics’ Blue Beetle, due in comic-book shops Wednesday, will be almost entirely in Spanish.

Why? “It’s a gimmick,” writer Jai Nitz says — not, he adds, that there’s anything wrong with that.

The purpose, he says, is to bring some attention to a great title that deserves more readers. At the same time, it serves the story, which finds Hispanic teenager Jaime “Blue Beetle” Reyes and his non-Spanish-speaking girlfriend at a family gathering where everyone speaks Spanish.”*
