For new fans, Static Shock is the superhero alter ego of Virgil Hawkins, a Teen Titan with electric powers similar to Black Lightning himself.
Static Shock could appear in a future episode of Black Lightning, if the showrunner has his way.
Static Shock is certainly a popular character who could become another younger cast member for Black Lightning, and whose powers match that of the lead in an interesting way.
“I love the idea of Static Shock, and in success, hopefully, we’ll be able to pull other characters in in that way.
