RE: WPCAPOC (way too many letters) I remember during a Dwayne McDuffie retrospective, someone mentioned that he hoped to one day see young, white fans cosplaying as Static because that would prove how popular the character was to different people.

Static is my son’s favorite superhero by miles, and Dwayne was always amazing to him (my son, I mean). I tried to get him to cosplay as Burnout once (he looks EXACTLY LIKE him from my run with Talent Caldwell, a complete coincidence), but I know he would a thousand times rather play Static.

That sounds like something Dwayne would say…he was no one’s patsy but he was very kind and patient with other people.
