Bea 23: Ben 10 The Next Generation

Bea 23: Ben 10 The Next Generation (often just referred to as Bea 23) is an American action-adventure sci-fi comic book series that serves as a sequel to the Ben 10 universe and is published by IDW Publishing.

Synopsis
The series follows Bea Tennyson, daughter of Ben Tennyson and Julie Yamamoto, who is on a trip around the world with her mother and her cousin, Connor Levin. The reason for the world trip changes throughout the series, though it is initially to find her father, who has gone missing. As she goes on this trip, she attempts to become a hero while also growing closer to her cousin and mother, both of which she has been estranged from.

Main

 * Beatrice "Bea" Tennyson/Bea 23 - the main protagonist of the series who is the bright-eyed daughter of Ben Tennyson and Julie Yamamoto that wants nothing more than to be a hero. She is extremely giddy and energetic but has some major anger-issues that become a problem throughout the series. She is the wielder of the Infinitrix, which is a variant of the Omnitrix gifted to her by her father.
 * Connor Levin/Connor 24 - Bea's cousin and the son of Gwen Tennyson and Kevin Levin who is a very egotistical kid that thinks he's more important than he actually is. In spite of this, he gets along very well with Bea, though he feels some jealousy towards her due to her getting more attention than him by the masses. He has the ability to absorb energy into his body and expel it out of his limbs or orifices.
 * Julie Yamamoto - Bea's mother who divorced her father some time before the series properly began. In spite of this, she has remained on good terms with Ben and has learned quite a lot about aliens and the supernatural in general from him. Although she is not an official Plumber, she has a lot of their tech and uses it to aid her daughter on her quest. She is also the pilot of the Rust Bucket V3, which is an alien jet.

Trivia

 * The series attempts to remind the audience of the early years of Ben 10, only with upped stakes. Just as the original series was about a road trip across America between cousins and a wise old mentor, Bea 23 is about a trip across the world with a pair of cousins and an older figure who knows more than them.
 * Though it does change up the initial series by, as mentioned before, upping the stakes of the villains and changing the characters involved, their personalities, and what makes them tick.
