+1 Static Superhero
Hey guys, it's Luc here again, adding my favourite superhero OF ALL TIME to my cast.
If you're unfamiliar, this pretty boy here is Virgil Ovid Hawkins, more commonly known as Static. Though he's featured in a lot of DC comics around now and his icons are from the New 52 comic, his canonpoint is from the 2000-2004 Kid's WB animated series Static Shock. (His icons are from the new 52 because getting good screencaps of Static Shock is like. no. just no.)
He's 16 years old and his powers are electromagnetic phenomena-- basically, the stuff that makes trains levitate, and a whole bunch of other electromagnetic energy manipulation. He's here to PUT A SHOCK TO YOUR SYSTEM and complain because he's a bored 16-year-old kid.
A note, though: Virgil is a character who was built to address issues of racism and minority representation and is characteristically inclined to call people out or mention things having to do with those issues. If you don't want to encounter content like that, please let me know via PM or comment on his Application page.
You should also check out his app page if you're unfamiliar with his series-- he's a really cool character from a great series that you should really check out!
Just. Don't read the New 52 version. It's bad. Bad storytelling. Only read it for his cool new costume.
