Bio

Jaime Reyes sought Batman’s help in learning to use the Scarab, an alien weapon of mass destruction bonded to his spine. Although the Scarab could pose a deadly threat to the entire planet, kindhearted Jaime is determined to protect people, wary of the corruptive influence of great power he witnessed under the Regime.

Ending

Oh, man--dude!--I cannot even describe what it felt like! Sure, I was just the newb in the crew. But like, you think I'd ever let Brainiac kill Batman and, what, blow up the world? ¡No manches! When it was over Batman was all-- "The world is safe thanks to you, Jaime. I'd like to make you LEADER of the new Justice League, if that's cool with you." Wow! That was really tempting offer, you know? But if there's one thing better than saving Batman, it's saving mi familia. I haven't been around 'em since I got the Scarab. So for now, I'm moving home and going back to school. And if this so-called "normal" life doesn't work? There's always the Justice League.
