2023 was not one of Steph's better years, with a terrible interpretation of her in Gotham Knights that missed the entire point of the character by making her a rich celebrity's daughter, and sporadic guest appearances in the comics, though those guest appearances were often a highlight of those books.

Despite this, Steph continues to have more potential than most characters, with compelling relationships with most of the bat-family, most recently Jason Todd, and a unique niche as the sidekick Batman constantly rejected and always tried to force out and who therefore had to fight tooth and nail for every ounce of acceptance she has now.

May 2024 be the year DC figures out what a treasure they are wasting and puts Steph in a book with a good writer who knows what makes the Eggplant Avenger special.
