THE BLUE BEETLE





The Blue Beetle had a short lived, but very successful, career on the radio, between May and September 1940 with a total of 48 episodes. Motion picture and radio actor Frank Lovejoy (Nightbeat) was the Blue Beetle for the first 13 episodes, while for the remaining shows, the voice was provided by an uncredited actor. An obvious Green Hornet rip-off, The Blue Beetle retained it's own unique feeling and had a large following not only in the newspapers, but in comic books and on radio.
