10 Best Superhero Successors

10. Jaime Reyes - Blue Beetle

Unlike a traditional successor, Jaime Reyes shares almost nothing with the previous two Blue Beetles, the only connection with them being the scarab that gives him his powers originally belonged to the first Blue Beetle, Dan Garrett.

Despite this lack of connection, Jaime Reyes has really made for some thoroughly enjoyable watching and reading across the many mediums he has appeared in, and has absolutely lived up to the legacy the name represents.

As well as his solo adventures, Reyes has been a part of many teams, most famously the animated Young Justice group and the comic book Teen Titans, in which he has gone toe to toe with powerhouses like Lobo and Starro, and lived to tell the tale, just showing how resilient - and heroic - the character is.
