Static Shock is an excellent show, for modern Saturday Morning fare. It is based on Static, one of Milestone Comics' flagship titles, and a very good comic book. The title character, an African-American teenage superhero with electromagnetic powers is portrayed as a real kid, both in and out of costume, and not as a walking stereotype of either black youth, or superhero. All the voices are done quite well, also. It is refreshing to see different faces on television than what we're "used to". Kids WB has a winner with this one. If they're smart, they'll keep it around.
