Dan Garret, sometimes spelled as Dan "Garrett", is a fictional comic book superhero who goes by the code name of Blue Beetle. He was originally conceived as a character from the Golden Age era, and made his debut in the pages of Mystery Men Comics #1 in August, 1939. In less than a year, Garret went on to headline his own Blue Beetle series published by Fox Features Syndicate. This gave way to a string of sequel titles published by other companies such as Holyoke and Charlton Comics before finding his way to his new home over at DC Comics, even though the character was considered deceased by this point.
