 Although Cyborg's identity was found out at the H.I.V.E Academy, there was still another agent inside--and that agent was Bumble Bee. Bumble Bee is able to fly with her set of wings, as well as shrink down to a smaller size, but still give the same amount of damage. In addition, she uses dual "B" shaped laser weapons that fire a stinging blast. Bumble Bee helped Cyborg take down Brother Blood's second H.I.V.E. hide-out; while Cyborg took down the generator, Bumble Bee took Blood on. Ultimately, Blood got away; both Aqualad and Bumble Bee are currently looking for him. When Cyborg steps down as the leaders of the Titans East, he appoints Bumble Bee to take his place. Though worried at first, Bumble Bee quickly fills Cyborg's shoes more than adequately. |
Bumblebee actually made it to the top of my Favorite characters list... (hint hint.. she's above Raven xD). Some say she's a mary sue character, or just don't like her because she seems just too powerful even in shrinked form.
I say they are just Bumblebee haters lol. Aside from the fact that she is acutally one of the smarter female characters, we must all remember she received an education from Brother Blood.. you kow someone who teaches kids how to take over the world.. surely she took a lesson in overpowering your opponent, despite your powers.. I mean I've seen all the HIVE kids use their power wisely aside from powerhouses like Raven, Cyborg, and Starfire who just shoot blam, fly/run, shoot again, blam repeat.
I bet the Titans couldn't last that long against a few chosen HIVE kids... but the writers might make it seem otherwise... but that's besides the point.
Anyway, I enjoyed watching Bumblebee overpower Cyborg, that hot head should be put in his place, maybe not by another hothead, but that was always fun to watch.
I consider her shrinking abilities, and enhanced strength meta-human (unless.. like Robin, she's given that incredible strength that allow her to push people like cinderblock back with a punch... bleh)
Otherwirse, her weaponry is awesome... I mean what all she has are those stingers... which are cool.. and a pair of authentic wings... yay lol. Fighting skills that could give even cyborg a run for his money.
Personality, I do like because it's what really seperates her from Starfire and Raven, she's got that in your face attitude, and I'm not taking crap from you attitude, which Starfire and Raven lack. What so you get Starfire hyped up on some Robin talk and she'll attack your ferociously. Otherwise... she just shoots stuff lol. Raven, get her pissed she'll make you see the end of nowhere but other wise, she just sits back hits, retreats, and then waits again.
Sure that can be considered a unique trait of the girls, but Bumblebee is the type of character that screams, "Girl Power" lol. I do enjoy her stubborn, prideful... etc etc personality as well, it only proves she's still human ^_^
All in one Bumblebee is cool. She's not some starfire knockoff.. not an annoying character, she's unique and a great leader for the Titans East... ya
