Why doesn’t DC care about Bumblebee ? Someone at WB/DC animation seems to care about since she’s a big part of both DC Super Hero Girls but DC themselves don’t seem to care about her. Why doesn’t DC care about Bumblebee ?

1. She's just a Wasp rip-off, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
2. No one actually cares, she just appears in cartoons because she's black.

D.C. barely uses its black female characters. You'd think that they would do something with Thunder and Lightning but they aren't even in comics right now.

As for Bumblebee, I'm not a fan of how the current cartoon is handling her. When the shy horse has more balls than you, something is horribly wrong with your character.

All DCSHG are just changed into the typical archetypes you'd expect in these kind of shows, excitable, aggressive, shy, egotistical, etc. I think the show itself it's fine but everyone is quite different to how they are in comics or other media.

DC also forgets to give them personality(though this could be said about a lot of characters).

When Bumblebee and Steel were in the Titans comic, they were just there and had no personality to speak of.

Ironheart isn't very popular, but she does have a personality.

Can we start brainstorming a new costume for her? Pic related is a great start, but I think we can do better. Reason BEE-ing is that it will help her differentiate from The Wasp.

First and foremost I think a great design element in her costume would BEE big Mega Man style boots and gauntlets. Bumblebees have are bigger than their other bee cousins, and I think that would help reflect that.
>>108308428
Because Wasp can do that already.

First of all, DC isn't a person so it can't care about anything. It's an entertainment company that does use Bumblebee as a character so I feel like thos whole line of questioning is pointless.

Implying you do? Yeah no shit, that's the goal. What the fuck do you think we're talking about here? You don't do that by making her even more similar to the character she already has a hard time differentiating and competing with, you fucking idiot. Furthermore, adding another power does jack shit for her actual character.

The Titans franchise is bad and needs a complete retool, but Didio has a beef with legacy characters and young characters in general because they 'age' the older ones.

Its not a coincidence that most of the characters getting turned by the BWL are either from the Titans or younger characters in general.

Because his daughters have to be teenagers to be superheroes and that would make Black Lightning old and married. Another thing DC editorial hates.

Bullcrap, nobody is happy with how the titans currently are and everything didio's regime has done has only messed them up more. Didio is responsible for their current sorry state.

You got no fucking clue, you have to reintroduce his daughter to the comics and even then that doesn't mean the people buying comics are gonna care. The people who would buy Black Lightning are already buying Batman and the outsiders, no one is holding out for thunder and lightning.

But they don't know the mechanics behind it. Got nothing to do with didio but everything with how the only time teen titans was remotely good was 40 years ago and that's because of the cast that had no sustainable stories without Raven.

That's a meaningless pathos. You can literally say this about anything but the reality is there is serious baggage behind teen titans that fans won't own up to.

I feel like the 'baggage' is on the writers who refuse to retool and reinvent some things that should've been done years ago.

Unless your talking about the fans who feel that the baggage shouldn't be cleaned up because of 'tradition and canon.'

She's too much of an OC Donut Steel and Harley already fills that position. I know I know she's based on Jericho's girlfriend from 70s Teen Titans but that's pretty fucking obscure anyways. Just cause Greg Weisman added her to the second season of Young Justice does not an iconic hero make.

Steel has a personality, shes a quirky & nerdy lesbian. She was actually pretty good in Abnetts Teen Titans but I agree with your overall point. DCs black characters are usually personality less except for a special few and they all tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to integrating them with the rest of the DC Universe lately
