Since his debut in 1966, Ted Kord a.k.a. the Blue Beetle has always worn a blue costume. On top of that, he even has a name with the word “Blue”. Because of these reasons, you can describe him as one of the original blue-themed comic characters.
Ted Kord started as an industrialist that ran his father’s company. But after meeting the first Blue Beetle, he decided to become a superhero.

His abilities included a genius-level intellect, excellent fighting, and acrobatic skills. Coupled with his high-tech devices, these abilities helped him defeat his rivals.
2. Blue Beetle / Dan Garret

As a superhero, Dan Garret was a skilled fighter and had superhuman strength. He could even fly and endure the toughest conditions.

If you are still looking for superheroes with blue costumes, you can add DC Comics Jaime Reyes’ Blue Beetle. You might even describe him as the third Blue Beetle.
