Goofs
When Richie develops super-powers, Virgil reasons it is because he still had Bang Baby gas on his clothes when he saw him. However, Virgil spent the night at home with his father and sister before seeing Richie, where they had much more time to breathe in the gas, but neither one of them developed super-powers at all.

Quotes
Talon: It's too bad it has to be this way, Robin. You and I are birds of a feather.
Robin: [hogties Talon] I cannot begin to tell you how many times I've heard that joke.

Teen Heroes rules!

Static Shock is one of my favorite cartoons.It's so cool, with action, animation and funny dialogues. Virgil Hawkins is a boy who have been affected by a strange nuclear cloud called "The Big Bang".With the explosion, he gained superpowers to control electricity.But Virgil wasn't the only person that had been affected by the Big Bang. Many school bullies had gained powers, and then they terrorize people in not only in school but also in the whole city.Then Virgil uses his power to defeat the bullies! In the second series, Virgil meets many famous superheroes, such as Batman, Superman, and others. His friend Richie also transforms into a superhero, known as Gear. Static Shock is a very cool cartoon. I give a score of 9.5/10.
