Will we ever see him again /co/?
>>
>>84375963
Why doesn't DC use him btw? You'd think Static was the perfect character for the current ''diversity boom'' in comics. haven't read any comics, if there even is any, but his show was good, felt very real in many ways.
>>
Probably.

Remember how he was in Young Justice and he did the awkward name drop and then the show was canceled before he ever actually did anything?

Thanks, CN.

I'm confused. Are you saying that it was unrealistic that a bunch of adolescent heroes just coming into themselves would have lots of romantic interrelationships? Or are you just upset because it wasn't tailored exclusively to you? Care to give some more reasons for why it's bad 'by any stretch?' Shouldn't be too hard to come up with a couple.

It was overrated and did shit by his extended cast

Season 2 was a mess and it doesn't deserve a third chance to fuck up even more

Yes, actually.
God only knows when it's going to happen, but Milestone is coming back as a DC imprint, releasing OGNs Earth One style.
Static and Icon are the ones we know are coming, and I think Xombie too.

Aw, shit, Static. This is one of those legit good and fun "diverse" comics, right? I really dig his design. I'm getting the trade paperback of his original series when it releases this September, might also watch the show afterwards, it's the only DCAU series I've yet to watch.

Nahh. Being honest, they already have black guy on their team with Wally West -- I can't imagine they'd get another with Static.

Hey, I'm not saying I agree with that. But IIRC, there was like a memo or something (with maybe DC in particular) about how editorial wouldn't allow there to be two black guys on the same team. [Now that I'm looking it up, I think it was Dwayne McDuffie talking about Justice League?, saying that he couldn't put too many black characters on the team, lest it became a "black team"]

It's a shitty rule, and it's possible it'll be ignored in 2016, given that Marvel's Ultimates team currently has Black Panther, Blue Marvel, and Monica Rambeau and isn't remotely considered a "black team". So, maybe Static *is* a possibility.

But I'm not holding out hope -- he's still tied to Milestone and that alone makes me doubt he'll be in TT.

Well, I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say that I enjoy Booster a lot more in the comics. In Brave and the Bold they definitely overplayed the "vain gloryhound" aspect of his depictions. But I was very satisfied with his relationship with Ted.

Not to mention his adventures are on a way, way larger scale than in that show. I can't speak for the original run, which I can't find for the life of me (Showcase volume is BEYOND discontinued), but you'll love the 2008 series fo sho.
>>
>>84380023

Hahah no, Jaden wants to be a woman and wear dresses now.
>>
>>84379944
Not like his pre-52 version was any better. His cartoon counterpart had the luck of having to remove all the baggage that made him kind of crap in the comics. McDuffie lucked out in that his writing is better oriented towards kids shows when he doesn't ham-hand his message that often. Except Static's gun safety episode was bad, so fucking bad. So Static is basically the opposite of Jaime in that his comic was really bad but his cartoon was well regarded until the last season, while Jaime had one of the best new teen pre-52 comics but outside of Brave and the Bold, his cartoon appearances are bad or they crap all over what made him fun. His supporting cast and his attitude to the Scarab.

I wish I knew. Static is pretty cool, and if they get creative with his powers they could pull off some crazy shit. If Infamous taught me anything, it was how to respect lightning heroes more.

Now that I think about it, there's a lot of blue lightning imagery in Rebirth, isn't there?

It's worth watching. The slang is a little dated but the social issues they talk about some times still hold up. The first two seasons art style isn't that good but it gets better in season 3.
>>
>>84376007
It was the same case as Teen Titans: CN was open to another season, but Warner Bros nixed it because the periphery demographic wasn't one known for buying merch. Netflix is in talks with them for a season 3 though.

Static is getting a action figure soon this summer. Buying it might help static by showing that people like him .

The hate for it is loud, and the reasons vary and are bit vague, but I didn't think it was bad like they insinuated. The idea behind the story is definitely a neat one. I'd say take a look and judge for yourself, but it's up to you in the end.

>>84385326
I thought Static had a higher affinity for controlling things directly connected to him via plasma, as opposed to Magneto who doesn't use plasma at all.
