Tim Matheson credited as playing...
Jarvis Kord
- Blue Beetle: All that stuff about making a better world, and I fell for it.
- Jarvis Kord: Oh, no. I'm completely sincere about that. War, conflict, strife, they'll all vanish, with humanity under the absolute control of one single leader. Mankind will flourish as I eliminate any...
- Batman: Freedom.
- Jarvis Kord: It's a small price to pay. Now... if you'll excuse me.
- Jarvis Kord: These are my helpers. They will do the farming to feed the poor. The building to house the homeless. A vast, tireless workforce just waiting to be powered by the awesome energy of the blue scarab.
- Jaime Reyes: About the scarab.
- [activating his suit]
- Blue Beetle: Why me? Why did I get it?
- Jarvis Kord: I dream of a perfect world, but I can't do it alone. I sent out my scarab in search of an ally, programmed it to seek someone of great virtue. Someone worthy to inherit the mantle of the Blue Beetle. And it found you. Will you help me?
- Blue Beetle: I wish Batman would've told me all this.
- Jarvis Kord: Batman. He's an old chum of mine. Don't take it personally; he's not much of a talker as I recall.
- Blue Beetle: Tell me about it. Mostly, he just grunts.
- Jarvis Kord: What are you doing? Each one of these is a miracle of science. They're unique, beyond value. Who are you?
- Jaime Reyes: I'm Jaime Reyes, the new Blue Beetle. I came here to find the original.
- Jarvis Kord: So you're my replacement. I thought you'd be taller. Welcome to Science Island. I'm Ted Kord, the Blue Beetle.
- Blue Beetle: [his antennae warble] Call Bats? Yeah, that's just what I was thinking.
- Jarvis Kord: Batman won't be taking any calls. Thanks to your timely warning, I was prepared for his arrival. The problem with being a beetle is that people are always pulling off your wings.
- Jarvis Kord: Battle drones, initiate attack sequence.
- [his drones unveil their weapons]
- Jarvis Kord: No missiles in the lab, please.
