    I dunno. The new art style seems electrifying but I worry the new Virgil won't be very grounded compared to his original title.

    Yeah, I went to pick up the first run of Static. I think they will lose the social commentary for fear of throwing off mainstream readers and just focus on him fighting "creatures." I hope they do right by this character though. Looks like he will have Hardware as a mentor and might even be supplying him tech.

    I can't wait to read this!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really hope this book shines in the New 52. I hope this series lasts decades longer than his series at Milestone because I really like his comic and television series. Count me in as a customer.
