History

Blue Valley, located in the northeastern corner of Nebraska, 25 miles south of Sioux City, South Dakota, was founded in 1862 by Cornelius Blue, a settler from Connecticut. After the construction of a railroad line running through the valley twenty-five years later, the Blues sold their land to a developer. In 1903, Blue's son founded Cornelius Blue University, which became a technical college in 1926 under a new name, Blue Valley College. The community's economy is largely based on providing services for the college's students.[1]

Blue Valley was the home of Rudy and Mary West and their son Wally, better known as Kid Flash. Years later, it became the home to Courtney Whitmore and Pat Dugan, better known as Star-Spangled Kid and S.T.R.I.P.E.
