Do you think Bumblebee could work as a solo act?
Do you think Bumblebee could work as a solo act?
She's one of those very few characters who's been around for decades, is fairly recognizable to past-surface level fans, but has more prominence in cartoons than the actual comics.
I think that between her scientist/superhero inventor backstory
And the potential Bumblebee/beehive iconography that her name implies the sky's the limit
She's an insect themed superhero who makes all sorts of gadgets herself, she's the first black female superhero at DC
She's basically already a Kamen Rider
If DC doesn't think she can handle her own solo, at the very least they should team her up with Blue Beetle and Ladybug as trio of bug themed metal heroes
Her hubby Mal Duncan must be with her
What about her daughter and husband?
Bumble bump
This hero has potential
Promote to Justice League
Proceeds to die like the rest not Batman/Superman
She's always been part of the Titans and paired with Mal so it weird to try and make her a solo act
She's been part of the Doom Patrol too
And she's probably more well known to audiences as Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Batgirl's friend in DC Superhero Girls
Also it's been a while since she's been part of a main Titans roster. Even longer for Mal who is beyond irrelevant
Nobody gives a fuck about Mal
She would need a really good supporting cast and unique villains
Certainly. Just emphasize that she's a scientist and do plots based on some new invention or solving some problem that cannot be punched.
DC would require imaginative characters and good writing.
Well, so much for that idea.
They could put her in a bat suit and have her fly around flapping her wings tho.
And have Mal be her “Hank Pym” without the slapping.
He has many heroic identities:
Guardian
Hornblower
Herald
Vox
Sexy musician who helps take care of their daughter
no
The problem is DC would rather try to put out an Atom series for the hundredth time
During the popular Wolfman/Perez era, were there any plans were Bumblebee to lead a spinoff team?
This hero has potential
Promote to Justice League
Proceeds to become Batman's assistant like you just started superheroing
fixed
He's not her Hank Pym, she's the genius who invented both of their gear, Karen is her own Hank Pym
Mal is her Janet
I get that.
I’m saying she’s got the wasp like powerset, but Mal keeps changing between identities like Hank Pym.
Mal can stay at home with their baby
Mal needs to suit up every so often.
I don't see why not!
No.
Yes
At best a mini but she's one of those characters best suited for teams.
No he sucks. She should be Cyborg's girlfriend
No
she was so hot in that Eighteen Titans game desu
No, he drags her down bad.
huh? What are you talking about? What game?
A porn game
no
A porn game
Link?
so fitting for bumblebee then
Maybe Mal's sister Cindy can take a super identity in his place.
Sure. Not like Marvel is using Wasp in any meaningful way. Plus she's got fun gadgets like her honey gun and buzz sonic weapon
I say give her a shot
just search it up on f95, 18Titans I think it's called
If you can find someone at DC willing and able to write a solo act, sure.
could work as a solo act?
Yeah, on my penis
