Milestone Returns Zero Reveals Static's New Origin & Racist Batman!

[@marcusrobinson-johnson]

My biggest problem with the comic was removing the big bang. Without it, there's no blood syndicate. It's just one issue so I'll hold off any criticism until February but I've been waiting for Milestone for so long I just hope they don't change too much.

[@RealRoboKnight]

So... what about now?

[@kyronlewis6975]

Me personally I like the original origin of him wanting to get revenge but decides to throw the gun away and just happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

[@BlerdWithoutFear]

Ah, the bog standard boyz in the hood origin story. That's fair. I was never a fan of it

[@kyronlewis6975]

Blerd Without Fear well just a difference of opinion I related more to the original origin because of the gang violence in my city when I was growing up and Static was a nerd in the hood like me.

[@nobodyknowsforsure]

Exactly - it showed conflict and him overcoming it, I'm a little salty on it but still bout time that Milestone has returned - finally.

@white america's worst nightmare Just depends on the area I think, I have been harassed and threatened more black my fellow black people compared to cops. I think it really depends on what part of the US someone grows up in, Im from Dallas so you'd think I have more stories of cops treating me bad or something but I don't

[@jac0736]

Not sure how I like Static's new origin, I just always thought him being involved with gang activity was a core concept of his origin. Think about it, smart kid who wants no trouble whatsoever but is targeted so bad he has to join a gang because the system has set his socioeconomic status to such a shitty standard that he has to. Just being a victim of police brutality...like it takes out the redemption Static feels he needs even though as readers we know he was only involved to save his own life. Static was a victim of society who didn't want to see people do what he almost did, now he's just a victim

[@morfealesteban8333]

When I was a kid watching static shock, I didnt think about him being a black hero but as a hero. :) I’m glad that he is given the love and recognition he deserve.

[@Wise_Son]

@Miya Koh when I was a kid reading these comics and watching the show, I DID see him as a BLACK HERO because, that's what he was, and these comics were something people of color needed and something I waited for forever, there were and still are too few heroes of color in comic worlds, and it was an exciting time and important for me (and others like me) to see that not all heroes had to be white. As much as I love all the traditional heroes from the big 2, there was a point early on in my childhood where I stopped and thought, "hmmm, where are all the black, asian, etc. heroes??" So, it's important to see that he IS a black hero, it means something, and it is part of the reason why the Milestone crew went on this crusade.

[@morfealesteban8333]

snakeyes2099 hey don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it’s not important or undermining it or anything. However Just as a kid the way we view things are very different. As I grow up I understand that he is an important figure and part of the culture as well as an important milestone for minority. I’m Asian so I do understand the significance of being represented properly in the culture.

[@morfealesteban8333]

Unknown gacha a lot of Asian are misrepresented too.

[@King_Vic92]

@@Wise_Son I feels this, im black and as a kid I never cared about any of race of any superhero. None of that mattered to me until now my current adulthood, now its still not important to me cause I don't need my characters in stories to look like me to relate to them, but I know other people need that so I support it for others. Just not for myself cause race has never mattered to me and I have never cared about it in the grand scheme of things.

*I checked out the art for the twist of Virgil, the art is good but the Real original Static Shock is so much better. I been waiting and advocating for him to make a comeback like all these other characters.* *Unfortunately probably should have waited longer, or just reboot and add more seasons to it.*

[@NRG-REC]

Damn. The line between good stories with politics and overly political nonsense is very thin. Dwayne had the skills to pull that type of storytelling off but many others do not. I really hope they can straddle that line or this shit will get cancelled(actually cancelled, not twitter cancelled) real quick. Statics my fav hero so I'm rooting for the comic but this is a bad move on their part. Hopefully the movie will do it better since dc can't afford to lose money like that.

[@NRG-REC]

@miles tom Not really. Changing it from a gang riot to a black lives matters protest is dumb as fuck. The original reason virgil became a hero is because gang members(people who were already hardcore criminals) gained superpowers in the same way he did and started terrorizing his city. He felt responsible to step up and stop them. This makes sense and shows how different he is from the gang members he fights. However in their attempt to make blm look good they're just gonna make it look very bad because now it's not criminal gang members gaining powers but instead peaceful protestors attacked by the police or whatever.....yet despite being peaceful before they gained powers they still somehow end up doing the exact same thing the gangs did.....which is terrorize the city. Therefore making blm protestors the bad guys he has to fight. Basically implying the blm movement is just as evil as criminal gangs. Or that if blm protestors gained powers they would use them to do crime instead of helping others like virgil does. Do you see my point now? I haven't read the issuse so maybe they handled it perfectly but like i said you can have a good story with political messages but most writers today are either too lazy or not skilled enough to bother and just slap messages into the story without thinking or caring about how it effects the narrative.

[@NRG-REC]

@Xbox One My comment makes no sense to you because you didn't bother reading or even attempting to understand what I said. You only saw what you wanted to see and felt the need to come show me my place or whatever. I know this because you LITERALLY repeated what I said in your first line. Different words but the same damn meaning. I'll try and simplify it for you this time, hopefully you catch it. Politics is in everything but the line between GOOD STORYTELLING WITH POLITICAL LESSONS AND SHIT STORIES THAT ONLY SERVE AS POLITICAL VEHICLES IS VERY THIN. Dwayne mcduffie was a talented writer and through that he was able to write about gang violence, drug abuse, homelessness, racism and other heavy topics in a way that both adequately expressed the lesson he was trying to convey and also flowed well within the story he was trying to tell for the characters. Most writers these days cannot do that. They don't even try to anymore, it's too much work. They just say xyz is bad and you should feel bad. The message falls flat. Everyone already intellectually knows racism is bad but if you want to make people "feel" why it's horrific then you create a compelling journey for a character we can root for who is dealing with racism. Since you missed my 2nd point I'll break that one down too. The problem isn't that he went to a blm protest. The problem is that he and everyone else got their powers there and then, with the exception of him, suddenly started commiting violent crimes. There's an implication there that is very obvious to any black person with common sense and it's very negative. You might miss it so I'll tell you that one too. "Black people, who were peacefully protesting when given power, immediately became violent criminals who abuse their power over others" Get it now? It made sense in the original because they were already gang members hurting innocent people who then suddenly gained even more power but in the reboot these are supposed to be law abiding regular people, peacefully protesting injustice. Give them a scrap of power and all of a sudden they're terrorizing the city. If their goal was to show blm in a positive light, they did the opposite. It invalidates the very message the writers were trying to send. It's made even worse because from the preview I saw (and i may be wrong about this and hope I am) the only reason the cops fired at all is because virgil got pissed because hotstreak called frieda a slut or something and threw a punch which started a riot. So not only is he no longer an innocent kid in over his head trying to do the right thing from the original comic, he's now the hotheaded idiot who started the big bang in the first place and got countless people hurt and killed because his white bully called his friend a name. So now, he's going to be flying around beating up other black people due to something he caused. As a black man I'll tell you right now that's not even remotely a positive message to send to black kids and if you can't see that, then you're part of the problem.

[@samdave1699]

Nice video I like the shout out to the creators at the beginning-but like 99% of the Milestone and Static history on the net it totally dismissed the real main creator of Static ,Michael Davis.

[@ryanbrown938]

I am sooo geeked for this!!!! Cant wait to see the new Hardware a.k.a. The Black Iron Man as referred to by my dad and uncles whom introduced me to Milestonewhen I was a kid!! (R.I.P Uncle Ray✊🏿✊🏿) Also cant wait to see if there will be a new take on Blood Syndicate a.k.a The 'Hood (Avengers/X-Men/Justice League) also referred to by them...lol

[@brownjordan0523]
