I always loved that moment in "Static in Africa" where Virgil talks about his experience as a young black man--how he's not a "black kid" there in Africa, just a kid. That kind of issue, about the subtle ways you might see yourself as different even in your own home due to race or heritage, doesn't get mentioned in children's TV shows often.

Try and find the Commando X trilogy from the original Milestone comics (issues #5-7), if you love that moment. One of them, I believe #6, has an incredible sequence of Virgil and Frieda talking to their parents about racial divides. Actually, just read the entire run if you can; it was an amazing series.

I'll agree with the later two comments, source event for the powers can have a decent impact on their active personality moving forward, and it also doesn't help that YJ Static doesn't have A) familiar characters to bounce off of like Gear/Ritchie that have a long history prior, B) nearly as much focus as a character due to being in a large-scale ensemble-cast show, and C) an impossible to bridge gap in ability to run things by his original creator for character advice (RIP Dwayne)

@Michael LaRose no, that happened years after the cartoon aired (Milestone's characters weren't part of the main DC universe at the time). I've heard that it was setting up the crossover 2-parter, which was originally meant to familiarize viewers with the Teen Titans before their show debuted (just like the Legion of Super Heroes appearance in JLU); story is that someone higher up chickened out, and that's why the better-known Justice League ended up getting the 2-parter instead.
