I think I might be able to go out on a limb and say that Static is looking to be one of the best titles of this new milestone relaunch! Vita Ayala, ChrisCross, Nikolas Draper-Ivey and AndWorld Design have a gem on their hands and here's to hoping that they keep on polishing it until its the brightest thing in all of DC Comics.

Overall, it's an intriguing start that has done a great job of getting us inside Virgil's head and world, even if it hasn't really separated itself from the genre yet. Read Full Review

This is still a great comic, but not necessarily one that's breaking new ground. Read Full Review

The new Superman is set up nicely in this first issue, giving us several good glimpses of what he's going to be like as a person, and what his adventures might be like going forward. Read Full Review

A second issue can be hard and there is a bit of a drop in energy here while Ayala tries to cram a few extra plot points into the story, some stick and some don't. But with a stunning first few pages and a great cliffhanger final page it will keep most of the fanbase coming back for next months issue Read Full Review

AN AMAZING ISSUE. In a time where i think team up books & indie comics on the rise, this continues what I think is shaping up to be an instant classic teenage superhero story.

This story is developing at a strong pace. It's fantastic. Very easy read. The dialogue feels real. The art is phenomenal once more. The usage of Virgils powers is clever, something you really don't see often. Virgils going places. Folks.... read this book. We need this to get big. Its so good.

Kind of false advertising when it comes to descriptions. Virgil's parents don't seem upset with him, they seem kind of understanding actually. But it's that whole concept of being concerned for him that hits home. Have you ever had smothering parents who want what's best for you but often scramble for solutions that make things worse? That's pretty much what Virgil's feeling. And now he just wants to find ways to make his powers work without being too big an inconvenience.

Very wordy issue that did a lot of heavy lifting, but it was still good.
