...Why should we care about this?

I don't think Bea is high up on most peoples' favorite supporting characters list and suddenly she's getting her own story.

It's a reflection of this run's lack of ambition. There's nothing left to say, there's nothing left to say about Melinda, nothing to Barbara. The "big" villain himself is nothing.

I'm fairly certain Travis Moore just wanted to flesh out the character be created. Plus, maybe DC wants to establish her as a stable part of Nightwing's supporting cast.

Uh, this annual isn't even by Taylor, which is probably why they aren't touching those things.

That's totally fair, this just feels like a weird thing to make an annual out of.

I don't wanna get taken from the boards for saying something again but hopefully u won't be. But I will say I think that Bea getting a story is to fle a h her past given the recent Pitate arc but also she is a new Women of Color in Nightwing and DC want to use that. I mean she ok. Not that I cared for her Origin personally lol

No I get it, I said in the other thread I thought she would have gotten offed like Raya was if it wasn’t for optics, but instead they went with another bad trope

[Digifiend]

So Bea isn't even her real name - neither Ric nor Bea knew each other's true self!

[thwhtGuardian]

The pirate arc was the only one I didn't like so I'll be skipping this for sure.

It happens to all black love interest of the Batboys....Sasha, Zoanne, Tam........

That’s why I’m think in the case of veterans like dick there isn’t a point for new love interests. I’d say he’s close to Cyclops and Batman consistency. Tim is a different case with his new orientation.

[NOCTPHOENIX]

I mean bernard has proven pretty unpopular though.

[Aahz]

Tim is a different case with his new orientation.

I think even in his case Steph is still going to over shadow any new love interest.

They certainly didn't do a lot to help him.

[NOCTPHOENIX]

Giving a middle finger to Steph/timsteph certaintly didn't help.
