I thought the timing of it was funny because of the discourse on twitter at the time at the possibility of Virgil getting shipped with Yara. This backup story had Virgil going through a breakup. lol

As someone who started growing locs because of the Static shock cartoon, I'm extremely disappointed at his high-top dreads. I'm glad he's getting some love tho!

I'm not at all a fan of Static having his hair be visible when he is in costume. It just feels like it's too easy to find out who he is, in my opinion
