Static: Season One
Static: Season One | Vita Ayala
1 post | 1 read
At long last, the most famous face of the Milestone Universe makes his shocking return! Bullied nerd Virgil Hawkins wasn't the kind of kid you'd normally find on the streets at a protest--but like everyone else in the city of Dakota, he was fed up. Unfortunately, the first time he stood up to raise his voice, the world turned upside down. The experimental tear gas released that day left some of his classmates maimed or dead...but it left Virgil, and others, with stunning new abilities. Virgil has power inside him now--real power, the ability to channel and manipulate electromagnetic fields. But there's anger burning inside him, too. What is he supposed to do about all of this? And first and foremost--what is he supposed to do about his bullies, now that they've got superpowers too? A dynamic creative team of new comics voices including writer Vita Ayala and finisher Nikolas Draper-Ivey join Milestone Media veteran layout artist ChrisCross to tell a new chapter in the story of the most iconic Black teen superhero in comics history. Like every classic Milestone tale, it will take you places you could never dream! Includes Static (Season One) #1-6.

Mehso-so

A group of young protesters are gassed by authorities with an experimental substance, resulting in many of the crowd developing powers. Reminiscent of other teen heroes of color, Kamala Khan and Miles Morales, Virgil is a good student whom is bullied at school but has a close group of friends. Upon controlling his new abilities, he rises to defend folks from other powered kids. Serious and not as light and fun as the other books mentioned.
