Ep 6. Sunspots

During the second season of Static Shock, episode 6 titled "Sunspots," Virgil Hawkins (aka Static) is in for a wild ride when he starts to experience intense, uncontrollable surges of electricity running through his body. It quickly becomes apparent that these surges are tied to the appearance of solar flares, and Virgil learns that the sun is entering a particularly active phase known as a “sunspot cycle.”

As the weather on Earth becomes more and more affected by the intense solar activity, Virgil must work to control the overwhelming electricity coursing through his veins. With the help of his mentor, Dr. Robert Hawkins (aka Rubberband Man), and his best friend Richie (aka Gear), Static sets out to find a solution to his electrifying problem.

At the same time, the evil Bang Baby Hotstreak takes advantage of the power surge caused by the sunspots to wreak havoc on the city of Dakota. With his newfound fiery abilities amped up by the increased solar activity, Hotstreak seems to be more powerful than ever before.

Meanwhile, Static also has to deal with the sudden appearance of a new hero in town: Sunspot. Sunspot is a vigilante who has also been affected by the sunspots, gaining the power to harness the energy of the sun to augment his own abilities. While Static initially sees Sunspot as a rival, he soon learns to appreciate the value of having a fellow hero on his side.

As the sunspot cycle reaches its peak, the fate of Dakota hangs in the balance. Will Static be able to harness his own powers and stop Hotstreak from destroying the city? Can Sunspot and Static work together to overcome their shared enemy? Find out in this electrifying episode of Static Shock!
