Those creative types out there in Internet land are once again making one of my favorite sorts of Youtube videos: superhero fan films! This time, Stefan Dezil and company have made one called Static Shock: Blackout, which is due in March. The teaser trailer was released earlier this month. Static Shock is a black, teenager superhero created by the late great Dwayne McDuffie. He had a popular cartoon show on The WB several years ago, and is one of the most prominent black characters in comics.

It’s also one of the first titles canceled in the New 52 reboot by DC Comics. Oops.

Well these fans will show you why Static Shock can be cool. The electricity effects are actually pretty damn badass.
