The Virgil Ovid Hawkins aka Static Appreciation Thread!

Judging by his powerset, I think Vibe is somewhere in the multiverse.

Or Static could just become wallpaper like John Stewart and Jakeem Thunder.

Why is he giving Superman attitude?

Why is he giving Superman attitude?

This is the classic story of white superhero seems top help everybody outside of the hood and the one time he does he runs into the guy who has been doing it for years.

A story that has Superman getting called out for not helping the "hood" and not knowing of the various black heroes who blacks know of.

Interesting enough Superman's biggest fan was a black boy named Keith Roberts (who first appeared in Superman Man of Steel #1) and later adopted by Perry White and has not been seen in 14 years, was left out of the issue.

Pfft! What a load. Superman saves worlds. And this guy thinks he avoids certain neighborhoods?

DC please give us another Static Shock cartoon series!

Now while I think that would be a great idea, mix in some elements from the original cartoon and the original comic run, DC seems to be having a tough time maintaining its animated shows as of late. Not saying someone shouldn't put forth the effort.

So anyone think Static might finally be coming back to the titans, since I can't think of many teen heroes located in New York.

unfortunately (in the context of being a fan of static), i suspect that's going to be the new power girl.

DC seems to have grown smarter since forever evil, if it was static they'd be making a much bigger song and dance of it

It'd make sense, but I won't get my hopes up.

Hell would freeze over before we see Static in that book.

Me too

I like Static but I think DC is going to keep him in limbo for a very long time unfortunately.

I don't think we'll ever see him again. As big as the character is, he still had untapped potential. Fans need to be louder, like ask questions at the cons. Something.

People do ask questions at cons and they constantly get the "We definitely have big plans for ________, just wait!"

I'm pretty confident the character being referred to in that solicit is the new Power Girl.
