    Static

    Character » Static appears in 185 issues.

    Virgil Hawkins was exposed to a mutagenic gas that swept his city of Dakota, which gave him and other 'bang babies" superpowers. With the ability to control electromagnetism, Static joined the Teen Titans and continues to protect his city while serving on the team.

    So I guess its official.

    Static is pretty much dead. You'd think he'd be a pretty known hero sense he had a animated tv show..

    Buried next to Icon and Hardware in Milestone cemetery. You would think that DC would at least put him or any Milestone character in a team book, but I guess they just licensed the characters so nobody else could use them. As much as I like the idea of Static being tied to one of the big two comic companies, I would almost rather them just let the licensing expire so a company that cares about the character and would actually at least try to give him a realistic shot have a chance to use him. What is the point of having access to a bunch of characters, especially one like Static that has proven successful, if you're not going to use him.?

    If it isn't Batman related it isn't important. Is Static in a team with Batman? Has Static ever meet Batman? Are Static and Batman friends?

    They should've put Static in the Teen Titans show or something. (+)

    I can't believe he's only appeared in 144 issues when he first appeared in the 90's or late 90's

    @flameboy298: Yeah I forgot. I was trying to make a joke about how if it isn't Batman related then DC will not truly care. Static is dead because C.R.E.A.M.

    and Bats is easy money. (+)
