...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.
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.
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

Well prior to this annual, Bea Bennett was my favorite love interest for RicDick. But they just HAD to make it about something other than the winning natural chemistry in the original telling. Oh well.
To be clear, I enjoyed the story and the callbacks to GRAYSON. I also love the idea of a new action femme of color. I just wish that the choice to ugly up her relationship with RicDick had not been such.
But I will definitely be on the lookout for more Bea! While some in the thread did not like any part of the Ric Grayson arc, I found Bea extremely compelling. More, I found the way she and RicDick connected to be the best, most authentic of all his relationships to day.
I am glad that woth this issues reveal, we also see that she is happy for Dick and is, herself, in a good space.
