== Behind the scenes ==
* In DC Comics, Ted Kord is the son of Thomas Kord and took over Kord Industries after the death of his father. He then eventually took over the mantle of Blue Beetle.
** In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – Lex Luthor, which takes place right after the Black Zero Event in 2013, Thomas Kord is said to be the head of Kord, which he founded. By the time of Time Out Shortlist Gotham and Metropolis, which was published in-universe prior to the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Ted Kord is said to be the head of Kord Industries. Although this likely means that Ted Kord took over from Thomas Kord, Kord and Kord Industries may in fact be two separate companies as Kord is mentioned to have a different founding date than Kord Industries.
