We've obtained preview footage of the Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode, "Fall of the Blue Beetle!" airing this Friday, January 23 on Cartoon Network at 8:00 PM, guest starring Wil Wheaton as the Silver Age Blue Beetle, Ted Kord.

Unless I've been left out of touch with DC(I have a bit..), they are guaranteed a better treatment of Ted.
Oh, and Will is an awesome Ted I think. He probably begged for the role.

I miss Ted Kord.
He was the one Charlton character DC got unequivocably *right*.

From the VERY first moment I saw photos and clips of this series, with the Dick Sprang design, I knew I was going to love it. And I've yet to not adore an episode. Just kick back your heels fun.
Jaime has been treated well on B&tB so far, and based on the clips I've seen, they got Ted exactly right.
I still say it would be the ultimate irony if both Blue Beetles became the breakout stars of the series

If only DC had treated Ted this well.
