Ted Kord

Ted Kord — the beloved Blue Beetle of DC lore — makes his catalog debut here in a 2023 Nightwing issue published by Panini Deutschland, brought to life by the acclaimed creative team of Tom Taylor, Bruno Redondo, Scott McDaniel, and Carolin Hidalgo. His appearances are few but well-placed, sharing pages with an impressive roster that includes Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, and Robin across titles like Batman / Superman: World's Finest and Absolute Power. That's rarefied company, and it speaks to the enduring affection the comics world has for this character — even in a compact catalog footprint, Ted Kord gravitates toward the heart of the DC universe.
