    Yesterday we posted how Geoff Johns Tweeted about a possible live-action Blue Beetle TV show. He mentioned that there was a chance of test images going up. Today, he did post images on DC's The Source.
     
    Keep in mind the series is in development. It has not been greenlit yet (or is that greenlighted?). These are just a screen test of what we could expect. These are not final images but you have to admit they look really cool. He says they will bring the short clip to San Diego Comic-Con and will play it at as many DC panels as possible to give everyone a chance to see it.
     
    Want to see the rest of the images?

    they shouldve gone with the Ted Kord BB or the old pulp action BB from the old time radio show. i would much rather see another cop show or a businessman / scientist show than see another kid having super powers show.

    This show could easily be the next Smallville. And while I do think Jaime Reyes is a good choice for the main Blue Beetle, they should have Ted Kord in the show as the retired Blue Beetle and mentoring Jaime on using the scarab. And it would also be interesting for Jaime to appear on Smallville, that way it could bridge the two shows and familiar faces like Oliver and the rest of the Justice League or Society could appear to lend Jaime a hand once in a while (sorry, Clark, but once Smallville's over, you need to embrace your destiny and move on).

    Geoff Johns thinks this looks awesome? Well, hopefully it will look a lot better when they are done (if they actually go ahead with the show). This is just test footage after all.

    Honestly, these effects look consistent with the CGI from the 90's Goosebumps TV show. I'm REALLY hoping this is before they have added their final touches because this not at all what I was hoping or suspecting.

    put him on as a cameo on smallville, too soon for another DC live action show 
     
    remember Birds of Prey, and the failed Aquaman/GGreen Arrow spin offs
     
    not as apeealing to mainstream as superman, i mean who is blue beetle's adversary--- everyone knows lex luthor!
