Blue Beetle (Dark Multiverse)

Ted Kord, also known as Blue Beetle, is a superhero from DC Comics who tried to prevent the events of Infinite Crisis from occurring. Although he originally failed to do so after being killed by Maxwell Lord, a version of Ted in the Dark Multiverse survived this encounter and eventually became the very crisis he attempted to stop.

History
On an undetermined version of Earth in the Dark Multiverse, the superhero Blue Beetle began to uncover a big conspiracy that would lead to a crisis of epic proportions. He tried to warn the Justice League of America of this impending disaster but they took no immediate action on his claims. Eventually, Blue Beetle ran afoul with Maxwell Lord who offered Ted a choice at gunpoint to join him and Checkmate in their efforts to make the worlds superheroes look bad with the help of Brother Eye. Blue Beetle seemingly accepted Max's offer and was freed from his cuffs, only to knock Maxwell back and grab his gun. Max reminds Ted that Blue Beetle does not kill but he is still shot dead by the hero to prevent making the upcoming crisis even worst. Suddenly, Brother Eye threatens to eliminate Blue Beetle if it is not grant autonomous control to continue Maxwell's plans in the wake of his death.

Trivia

 * It is possible that because of the Convergence comics, the events of Infinite Crisis never happened in the post-Flashpoint incarnation of the DC Multiverse. Thus making the existence of this reality in the Dark Multiverse a mystery.
 * furthermore, Realities Earth-2 and Earth-3 are mentioned in this comics universe, despite the fact they technically should not exist in the Dark Multiverse.
