Static #2

Issue two of DC/Milestone's Static promises to dig into the young hero's backstory, with the cover tagline "The Shocking Origin!" setting the stage. John Paul Leon's pencils and Steve Mitchell's inks deliver a visceral scene: Static himself crackles with intense electrical energy at the center of a debris-strewn battlefield, while a masked figure looms over him from above amid smoke and destruction. It's a striking 1993 Milestone title that puts Virgil Hawkins' electrifying new life front and center.
